This is exactly what I was saying or actually asking at Backstage after the new US dates had been announced... That I wonder if the guys have considered it that if they now start more or less ignoring the rest of the world at the expense of the US shows, it might kinda backfire at them in the long run and make them lose fans outside the US. And I'm not talking about the die-hards like myself, I'm talking about the general public, the masses who buy the album and would go to that one local show if they were granted one. The masses aren't ready or willing to travel hundreds or even thousands of kilometres just to get to one show. The die-hards might do it, yes, but they're not the ones who make the albums go gold or platinum. It's the general public that brings in the cash & the awards, and if they're ignored by not "rewarding" them with a show, they might just lose all interest in the band.
