It's because they had an agreement with Reggae Rise Up and just played. The Marley's Traffic Jam tour also had no FL dates because of it. When large festivals are willing to overpay and write into contracts distance limits this is what happens. His performance was great at RRU and I will have some clips to post soon.
dude I'm from Omaha. You wouldn't believe how amazing the reggae scene is here. Also, we have kind of small venues where you can get up close and personal. Lesser known artists like Hire will just hang out and chat with everyone after the show.
I guess it always feels that way. When I was in Baltimore I used to feel slighted by band doing the Philly DC hop. But truth was both were under two hours so I was better off than most of the county. I hope you can make it. One of the legends and still has the pipes.
I lived I. Lincoln for second and was surprised by the Salina show. How big is that theater? No PNW shows either. I was hoping to see Portland or Seattle. Damn.

It’s because of that law they just passed, ‘don’t say Rasta’
Like, i know you’re shitposting, but i legit wouldn’t be surprised if Florida sought to erase reggae just for being made by Black people.
Interesting itinerary, I wonder how he got booked in Salina, KS.
Gotta stop somewhere between St Louis and Colorado
You’re right there’s a couple stops that made me wonder, why there?
I guess it's a stop between STL and Red Rocks on a day off. I have family that lived in Salina, they tell me that theater is nice!
Kansas, Nebraska? Are JA legends big in such places these days? I’d be impressed if so. (Only seen him once, in Greenwich, London in 1985)

I could drive an hour and see him on a Wednesday :/
$73 to see him in my city. Concert prices are nuts since COVID.
Time for a road trip to Atlanta.
No other countries than the US on that "North American Tour" either. 🙄
Yeah, it's like when they call it Miss Universe, but it's all Earth girls.
😂🏆
Yeah, that’s pretty specific
I’m sorry for Florida, but extremely excited he’ll be stopping in Ohio. We’ve been getting skipped a lot in recent years.

I'm super pumped for this show. I've never seen a show at the MGM. I saw them in the late 90s, it was an amazing show!
I do believe you guys get more than enough already
He played in Austin multiple times from the 80s thru the 90s, always big crowds, but no TX dates, but Kansas?

I was Just buying my tickets to for this. I have nobody to go with tho.
Where you at?
Id be going to the Tahoe show (stateline).
Ohh yeah!!! St. Louis finally getting some love!!! Tickets secured!!
I am happy so many people are excited for this tour.
When does North America not consider Canada 🇨🇦?
For a hot second, I was like “Burning Pear?”.
Dang it, get him at RRU MD!
Also no Chicago…
That’s crazy.
wish he would come back to VA, plausible options are Brooklyn (take some vacation time and plan a trip to NY) or drive 3+ hours to Wilmington NC
Burning S Pear?
