Im 100% sure that if we dont get an album and i think they are not going to record with simon, they are going to tour and play songs from all the albums and most of them that we haven listen live in years or never. Steve said he wanted to play some songs again so has to be something rare from 80s 90s or since reunion

I think if the next tour isn't for a new album, there's going to have to be some sort of actual angle to it besides "Here's a bunch of stuff we didn't do last tour."

They can do whatever they want and the stadium or arena will be filled. If you remember the FPT thats an unexpected setlist with 5 new songs maybe not the most important and 5 SIT songs. The casual fans dont care about that and in usa there were big crowds to see that tour. So i expect they do something like that but with old classics and songs never played
 
I’ll go out on a limb and predict that if there’s another tour, they’ll dig deeper into the more obscure songs from The X Factor. They might even place a stronger focus on Brave New World, alongside the usual classics.
 
Obscure X Factor songs/Blaze era might be a reason many people avoid the gig. Imo, they can play anything and sell tickets, but not Blaze era rarities, except Futureal or another fan favourite. They have other albums to dig deeper, if they want to.

We're WELL overdue for a reunion-focused tour. They haven't really hit on BNW/DoD/AMOLAD since pre-TFF. I'd love to see some of those songs again.

That and rare 80s 90s songs. Now is a tour for all kind of fans but apart for the classics they still play rare songs. The fpt was for the old fans. I think the next one would be like this
 
I'd love a reunion and a deep cut tour, but I think at best we can expect two more tours after this one and they'll either be focused on a new album (though I doubt it) or just general hits tours (that include some reunion tunes).

Actually it was one of their worst selling tour in the US.

I know Chicago was nearly an instant sellout (it's a market where, if you ask me, demands a second date like NYC/LA - it's been a very strong market for them), but there were several dates that had notable soft sales.

Legacy 2019 was strong, 2022 had some clunkers but was still solid overall.
 
If 2027 does indeed turn out to be an off year, I don’t believe Steve will be against writing new music. In the end, it’s in his blood.

That said, for a final album, I’d love to see them try to recapture the style and spirit of their ’80s material. I know it won’t happen, but that would be my preference.
