Rumor or Reality?, What's New, Pussycat?
Rumors about Sir Tom pass from ear to ear to chat room to discussion list to forum. Of course, we hear them, too, and are frequently asked by site visitors about the truth of a given story they see or hear. In an effort to separate fact from fiction, we’ll occasionally post a rumor — a possibly credible thing we hear and try to get at the real story. The only rule about the rumors we’ll post is that they must be about Tom’s professional life. Nothing personal. We leave that stuff to others. So, if you hear something and would like us to help check it out, send us an email. Of course no rumor is considered fact until it’s confirmed on Tom’s official site but, meanwhile, we’ll try to fill you in.
It’s Reality! New Dates Have Been Added This Year
Wednesday, August 15th, 2007OK: This was posted on Tom’s site today: So, it is not rumor, it’s reality!
Sept 28, Chumash Casino, Santa Ynez, CA; Sept 30, Humphrey’s Concerts by the Bay, San Diego, CA;
Nov 23 & 24 Pechanga Casino, Temecula, CA
This post, as we explained when we created our Rumor Or Reality page, should be viewed with some caution and is absolutely unofficial until it is confirmed on tomjones.com
That said, we have it from two extremely reliable — and very separate — sources that Tom’s December engagement at the MGM will last for two weeks, December 6 through December 19.
We’ve heard that, beginning with that engagement, Tom will be back to performing two weeks at a time when he’s in Las Vegas.
We’ve also been told that dates have been booked this year at Chumash Resort and Casino in Santa Ynez, California (near Santa Barbara) and at Pechanga Resort and Casino in the Temecula Valley of California.
As we noted, these are not official dates, but we can hope, can’t we?

Thanks for the tour updates, sure wish management would announce the 2008 tour dates soon.

There are new confirmed dates on Tom’s website but they are not for 2008 and there is no mention as of yet about an extention of the December Vegas dates.

Does anyone feel as I do that the shortened Vegas schedules this year and the amount of dates he is doing is because he is recording?
August 17th, 2007 at 6:08 am
According to a VERY reliable source, that is indeed the reason.

Since his tour dates are cut back due to recording, I hope we will see TJ more on TV in the USA promotion his CD!

Yippee!!!Thanks for the red alert—3 shows in my area!!(San Diego) It’s my lucky day!Now, I wonder why (but am very happy) Tom comes here so often rather than the huge huge LA area- where he formally resides—he was just at Pachanga 3 dates over Memorial Day. Does anyone have an idea on that? Ellen and Ursula—you guys rock!
