Is there any rhyme or reason to how they schedule who is performing on what dates?

In the BETM world, mike, no there isn't. Many, many fans have tried to figure it out and have just gone away frustrated. Sometimes you get lucky and discover a pattern for a week, but it's really hit or miss.

The only exception is when there's an announced first show or leaving for someone. Otherwise, good luck :)

I figured that. I mean I think if a person saw any of the Chicago Billy's they would leave happy. I was just wondering if trying to figure a pattern in the schedule was as complex as the Pythagorean theorem. Or maybe they like to keep us guessing.

In my opinion, and others who have been around a lot longer than I can chime in with theirs, but I think the Chicago schedule is among the easiest to figure, with Seoul a close second. With both of those productions, once you know the beginning of the week, the rest of that week's schedule usually falls neatly into place.

New York, to me, is absolutely the hardest to figure and then London.

Yes but what i was trying to do is buy tickets for the following week but usually after the dark monday the next week they change the schedule but i gave up on it now. It doesn't matter because all of the Chicago Billy's are amazing and very talented.
