Clearly Meat thought so, and who's to say what part of his bigger planning these shows are? He got the band together for just 2 in the USA in 2001 over a year after ST had finished, in 2006 did just 5 in the USA after the 3 promotional shows for Bat3, Australian tours are not lengthy there were just 13 for GP .. and Last at Bat was only 17 shows, and that involved bringing them all together to the UK and Europe, far more costly than doing a short run in the USA.
All I'm doing is passing on what he said 2 weeks ago, and pointing out that when a short programme to replace a longer tour is set up it would not necessarily be simply 12 of the shows originally planned which happened to fall in August.
