 In May, the band gave a special performance for Dalai Lama at the Dalai Lama Environmental Summit.The tour will also feature the band's very first shows in Alaska, where they had previously attempted to perform four times on the "One Hot Minute Tour" in 1997 however were forced to cancel due to various problems including injuries, scheduling conflicts and drug problems.Tickets for the Alaska show were in such high demand, selling out in three hours which prompted the band to schedule another show there.
