Background

In October 2012 the tour was announced. About the tour Bryan says, "I can feel the momentum. It has been an interesting process, and I'm so glad it didn't happen three or four years ago because I wouldn't have enjoyed it. I would be freaking out!"[1] "I have dreamed about this day for a very long time. We are having the best time putting together all the bells and whistles for the tour. I have spent a lot of time out on tours with some reality great artists, and each night we have tried to learn from them. I couldn't be more excited about this!"

gollark: You shouldn't know that kind of side channel information.
gollark: You haven't written your entry yet? How bad.
gollark: Replace the jumpers with very narrow flexible PCBs?
gollark: Temperature estimation bees informed me that it would possibly be cool to have 360 T-shirts all round a HSL color circle™, so that you can go through them over a year (or so) and confuse all.
gollark: Me.
