I interpret his statement as being "I certainly hope we will have signings before Saturday, hopefully even before Tuesday" as opposed to "We will certainly have signings before Saturday, hopefully even before Tuesday". The wording is ambiguous though - maybe one meaning or the other was clear to the participants of the conversation from the flow of the conversation.

Yeah, but we all know it's the hope that kills ya.
Like when the missis goes out on a all you can drink brunch/evening but rather then having a slightly tipsy wife who's up for anything she ends up in the bathroom being sick and mouthing you off for for the next 12 hours....

Reminds me of Fletcher's line in Porridge: "You certainly spin a pretty yarn, Ives. They could use you on Jackanory".
