I would say things are very clear now thanks to Guy, though not confirmed or still secret.
According to the tour route and past tours, there are missing dates in July : could be something like 1-2 dates in Italy, 1-2 in Switzerland, 2-5 in France and 1 in Spain. We just got 2 in France, we know it's possible now.
Festivals are our best hope and our worst nightmare.
They all release their program in March or April.
The artist can't announce anything before. That's it.
Did Guy forget it and made a mistake ? I don't think so.
The french part of the tour is unusual and happened to be a very unfair misunderstanding between MK and his fans.
While MK wanted to please the french fans with wonderful venues, we just had the feeling that he had decided to avoid us.
Taratata and the so late Bercy announcement did not help... Very unpleasant for all parties.
They recently understood their mistake in France : the french tour can not only rely on last minute dates, especially in July.
So unfair for the true MK fans who are trapped.
Guy was the only solution to officially break the ice, give some hope while staying unofficial.
I think it's different in Italy and Spain : already have 4 or 6 dates, a bit more comfortable but I really hope that there will extra shows there (you deserve it jbaent !)
Switzerland is another situation : the quota is ONE show. Festivals rule the world. Must wait.
Which festival ? I heard it could be Paleo in Nyon but unfortunately it doesn't fit with MK, especially compared to Lyon and Nimes. Not the kind of venue he is looking for. Would have been ok for the early DS. I see one only possible candidate : Montreux (2-17 july). If I had to bet, it would be on this one but I'd better save the money for the tickets ! Anyway, for the Lake Geneva area, it's this year or never.
