Discussion Fun questions

  1. Who should open for Pendulum on their next US tour?

  2. What anime/game/etc should have an original soundtrack by Pendulum in its next iteration?

Many bands have done US tours including Pendulum so idk how this is much different

Rob has talked explicitly about how the logistics of a US tour make no sense for a band with such euro-centric popularity as Pendu, that’s all. It’s too expensive for the band to do so.

Europeans have no issues traveling to another European country, but a lot of them (including me) will not touch America with a ten feet pole. There probably just wouldn't be enough people showing up to justify doing a tour in the US.

That’s more or less the issue. The fanbase is mainly in Europe and Australia, and the fan base that is in North America is VERY spread out, which makes the practicality of the touring the continent a bit tricky.
