I was hoping for Austin again this year.

Worth noting from DMB's facebook

We are excited to hit the road this summer and celebrate our 25th anniversary.

We will take a break from touring in 2017.

Dave Matthews Band was really the first band that made me appreciate music. That may sound strange, but I found them just at the right time in my young life and they blew me away. Musically, the way you could clearly hear the isolated instruments, and they were all so talented.

I don't listen to them anymore, but I will always cherish the years I had with that music.

Party on

Nice. I'll be at either the woodlands or the one in pelham.

I still kick myself for not being able to see Dave and Tim at the Saenger.

Think my crew will be doing Alpine this year, after 2 in a row Gorge trips. Any tips on Alpine stays? Booked a room at the Comfort Inn Suites about 15 min from the amphitheater, but am looking at Snug Harbor to camp instead. Will be shows 29 & 30!

May try and make the Woodlands.

Senior year of high school, I made the Dave and Tim show at Miami Ohio and it will always be in my top 2 or 3 shows every. Dead center and about 5 rows back with the playlist below. Was awesome.

It was great. Me and a buddy drove up to the college the night before the tickets went on sale and camped out in line. As a senior, it was about a good as of time as could be had. The line was basically an overnight party with about 95% being college students. Concert itself was amazing. Tim is incredible.

With no ATX, I'm trying to decide between Houston or Dallas (or both?). What say the Music Board? I've been to the Woodlands and am alright with that venue. How's the Gexa Energy Pavilion? I haven't been there yet...

Two things I noticed:
1) no Louisiana dates

2) concert venue corporate sponsorships are getting ridiculous

The Hollywood Casino Amplitheater will always be RiverPort to me and just about anyone over the age of 25 from St. Louis.

the woodlands is the better venue (by far) but you can tailgate at Dallas

we will be doing both this year



eta: can't believe I'm in before the "It aall starts off in the lot" story
