… I don’t get it. What’s the pattern?
They are cities with big tennis tournaments
Exactly, but in the fact of the true there are big good cities too.
Maybe too much usa’s but good cities.
And well, if Zoey fight to win that tournaments the band only have to stay with her in concerts and rehearsals. Everybody wins (and she have a gf to the rest ot the time)
Woo Toronto great city and also has a great music scene as well as Great Tennis
Zoey missed Auckland, NZ – the main run-up tournament to he Aussie Open in Melbourne. Best part is that the Tennis and Concert venues are only a 10-15 minute walk apart!
Woo-hoo! Melbourne! [written from Melbourne]
@ persia:
Also: I cannot tell you how much it bothers Sydney people that the big tennis tournament and the big horse race are in Melbourne. 🙂
So, having given in to blackmail once, they will have to do it again and again and again.
I’m disappointed now that I’ve looked it up. Apparently the actress Ava Gardner didn’t declare that Melbourne was ‘the perfect place to make a film about the end of the world’. The ‘quote’ was invented by a tabloid ‘journalist’.
@ MarqFJA87:
They’re all in New England.

Nope. Only Madrid, Rome and Paris(2x) are – and those are not the one’s Zoey thinks of
“New York, Paris, London, Munich. Everyone’s talking about MmMmMm Pop Music!”
I thought that was where this was going to go. I was wrong. Wah!
Novil, you really need to start thinking about releasing a paperback version of them strips.
Though it’s tennis that concerns Zoe, all the same those are perfectly fine cities for a world tour . . . . . but add Montreal. And St. John’s, Newfoundland, because it never gets a look in and it could do with a little love. Anyway, to only go to Toronto . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . okay, yes, it’s true the rest of Canada isn’t all that enamoured of Toronto, though it’s really more of irked by instead of hate . . . . still, really, you visit Canada, y’gotta go to Montreal, and Winnipeg’s kind of a hidden gem, same with Regina . . . and Saskatoon, the City of Bridges . . . . then there’s Alberta . . . . . . actually, could you do Flin Flon instead? Named after Flintabbetty Flonatin, a famous explorer . . . . . . that’s a little in-joke there which I won’t explain, look it up, it’s really quite funny . . . how many places in the world are there that are named after???
I don’t see the pattern.

Yes, although the place was pretty Anglo and boring back then. Muticultural and fab now, though.

That song is weird. He could’ve easily said Abyssinia while being so anachronistic. And on the map Europe is partly pre-WW2, partly cold-war, the only “modern” thing is united Germany.

Good cities I’ll grant. But at a population of around five thousand (4,958 in the 2010 census), Indian Wells is not Big.
Why is Sandra’s speech balloon in panel 1 cloud-shaped? Isn’t that usually reserved for thought balloons?

Listed in order of appearance and first the grand slams then the masters plus dubai. Of note, that is not the WTA schedule last I checked.
How long has it been since last update ?

@ Shade Llewellyn:
You sure know how to get an earworm started.
Perhaps as part of their act they could cover the song “Ripped Pants,” I’m sure Woo would be ok with helping them with the appropriate wardrobe, he’s done it for Sandra before!
