Re: 2021 Tour Rumors/Status

Can we post or pin a '# of Days Since Thread Was Locked' (due to people arguing COVID in the RUMORS thread and not the COVID thread?) to the top?

    Make sure you let everyone around you at the show know your faked your card since you’re proud and all, I’m sure they’ll be real happy about it.

    Back when I was posting all my doom and gloom scenarios, I was still thinking under the assumption that Fauci and others like him were going to have final veto power on everything. I now see that they don’t call the shots. That’s why I have moved myself into a more optimistic mindset. Also, I didn’t anticipate the “social end” of Covid. But people are sick of it, and those who are vaccinated are ready to ignore the doom and gloom media, and get on with their lives as best as they can.

    I am now fairly confident full on concerts will happen in 2021, by force if necessary. Will DMB be among them? Hopefully, but they’re not going to be the trend setters in this.

    Where would you get a fake vaccine card? Are those actually getting made/able to fake?

    FTWII, for the first time the “Tour Rumors” thread is not what the expected tour dates will be, but what announced shows won’t go! IMHO, there is no way we should be in this position with less than 2 months to go until the start of a tour that was announced almost a year ago. Yes the COVID landscape is constantly changing, but some kind of status announcement from “the band”, management and or tour promoters is long overdue.

    Yeah, we're getting to the point where an announcement from management would be really helpful. I think we'll have to wait another couple weeks before we get that since the landscape is indeed constantly changing (and IMO getting better).

    Disagree. Let them work through all the possibilities and when it's time they will announce. As long as they give us more time than they did with the Boyd announcement the night before the night before show.

    I might be wrong but their inaction officially to this point compared to other major acts makes it seem like they are wanting to play ASAP and as much of the currently scheduled tour as possible. I'm sure they have multiple contingencies in the works and are trying to figure out the best possible option and the best possible timing.

    Yep agreed. It’s kind of like jury deliberations. The more time it takes, the more chances of a hung jury (abbreviated tour) or not guilty (near complete summer tour)

    It's just getting a little frustrating. I've been holding off on making reservations and whatnot - would be nice to know what's going on, but readily admit we're all in the same boat here. Just would be nice to plan a different vacation if those days / expenses free up.

    Oh I get that part of it. But I appreciate them seemingly trying to get the shows in this year as scheduled if possible. I'm glad they haven't just kicked the can to 2022 yet, I know that is possible and maybe even most likely simply because of touring economics with partial cancellations, date changes, refunds etc.

    RLM clients DMB and Phish didnt make calls on last summer until May despite knowing it would never happen. There is still time, but were approaching that point here in the next 3-5 weeks.

    no kidding. what the heck happened to the simplicity of "there will be 100% by the end of june!" or "the tour will start at the gorge instead of end there! this is the upside down after all!"

    Good to see podiumboy finally take a step back from the ledge in here...

    A couple thoughts/relevant notes:

    1. NC Governor will make another announcement on easing restrictions on April 30th - this will definitely dictate what happens with the CLT show and will give us a better idea of the July Raleigh show as well. We're already allowed 50% capacity at large outdoor venues today.
    2. Lot of talk of DMB virtue-signaling and how Dave acts is an indication that they will be one of the last to return. BUT, what if he wants to encourage vaccine uptake instead, so he pushes to be on the early side and will require a vaccine. I'd prefer that scenario, so that's what I'm going with until I hear otherwise.

    I am making my prediction... Tour Announcement will be on 5/4 with dates in June being postponed to August/Sept/Oct.

    Tour will begin July 13 in New Hampshire.

    Curious to see if Warehouse updates their ticketing guidelines with possible restrictions in individual states. I know other bands are touring with the GA PIT but it makes me wonder if they do have the PIT that it will be at a more limited capacity.

    I know it's gonna be a lot easier to pull off a show in New Hampshire than in New York, but it would be really disappointing to get that close to the planned SPAC date and not have the tour start there.

    Understandable... I think SPAC will happen for sure it will just be postponed. I am not sure how Jones Beach will work also. In time we will tell

    I'm not trying to be a downer here but I don't seen any possibility of a GA Pit show in Florida so long as masks are required by the county, venue, or band. July in WPB is already brutal without adding a mask. I don't envy bands and managers juggling these decisions right now.

    TTB show on 7/16 in NH. Limited capacity show apparently...that might mean that DMB is moving at this point.

    I am not blind to the fact that lots of people think I'm some doom & gloomer, who doesn't want shows this year, and couldn't care less about whether others get to see shows. Hoping the Covid situation stays bad.


    But I would be absolutely frickin' thrilled if DMB did this. From the beginning, I've believed in the idea that the vaccine would help us begin to move past Covid-19, even though it's going to be around awhile since it's a Worldwide virus.


    But 100% capacity outdoor shows, with a vaccination requirement, in September, would be awesome! I think there would still be some trepidation, but it would definitely help with people getting vaccinated. It would enable those of us who are not being jerks and helping continue spreading the virus, to return to normalcy.

    The whole show your vaccination lunacy to get in has got to stop.
    Whether a sporting event or dmb show in September my 15 year old (who isn’t eligible for the shot) should be allowed to enter if the parent is consenting.

    The whole stay out if you’re not vaccinated is tired. Vaccinated people can carry the virus too. Why stop at under 16? Might as well forbid anyone over 65 from coming in as well since they are the most at risk.
    It’s got to stop somewhere.
