Nightwish/Kamelot NA tour?

I was on ticket master when I saw that there was a listing for Nightwish and Kamelot together in Ft. Lauderdale. No one really comes down here for the hell of it, so I'm assuming this is gonna be a full NA/US tour. Also they're playing a pretty small venue, about the same sized venue Anthrax played and Between the Buried Me played. It isn't small really, but I just assumed Nightwish was bigger than that. Also tickets are really expensive, with fees it comes to about 50$. I don't think that venue has ever charged so much, even without fees its 37, which is still the most I've ever seen it charge! I'll probably go anyways, should be a cool concert.

Kamelot just booked a show in London for November at a 2,000 capacity theatre. Totally over-ambitious if you ask me. They didn't sell out an 800 capacity club last time, and that was with Evergrey as special guests.

The venue they're playing here has a 1,300 capacity.

That's about the size of the venue Nightwish played here in '07.

Did you see a date? This can't be happening till fall at least, I would think judging by everything they've got booked in Europe right now.

Forgot to mention that! Yeah the show is in October.

Well that's cool, I was afraid they wouldn't get around to a US tour until early next year. Hopefully AZ doesn't get screwed on this one...

But that's for both of them. Nightwish play 5,000 capacity venues here. Last time they played two back-to-back nights.

Wasn't someone on here just saying that Nightwish was rumored to do a US tour in Fall like a week or two ago?
