A bunch of theater shows with open air shows mixed in. 1. They hold way less people so if 20% of the venue gets sick its way less people. 2. They can do more of them, offering more people a chance to see them in areas the band wouldn't normally hit. 3. More shows = more $$. They could figure out in a normal year how many people usually see them and thus how many shows would they need to do in order to equal that number. It would be a real grind for them but they would be back on tour, getting paid and getting their staff paid as well. Just a thought. Not likely to happen but its an alternative.

I said a while ago that if DMB ran Gillette Stadium under normal circumstances, they would draw 25,000 fans tops and you could easily spread that out (well maybe easily spread out 10,000 fans--25,000 might be tough). Problem is, with everyone now hungry for concerts, I could see DMB selling out Gillette as folks would want their entertainment. In 2018? Probably not so much but it's different times.
