    Was considering hitting up Roo if DMB was there. And I saw Foo Fighters in 2021 at Lolla and Kendrick last year on his tour; undercard doesn’t really do much for me either.

    Eh, unless the festival is in my backyard, very little excites me if DMB does a festival show. I'm too old for that haha. Plus you know what set you're getting.

    Actually, it is IMO to some degree. The presumption for months has been that we were getting a new album this year (ever since Rashawn announced they were headed back into the studio immediately after MSG to supposedly put the finishing touches on it), and new album usually = festival appearances. For there to be smoke around Bottlerock and Bonnaroo for months, only for neither to happen, makes me wonder whether the new album is being delayed again.

    If DMB was doing Bonnaroo with Foo Fighters, good chance I would have gone

    Good chance the 2023 date will drop around the same time as last year.

    DMB festival sets usually suck, so I don't consider any of this a loss.
    They're still playing Innings Festival in March, so there's that.

    So no Hangout Fest, Roo, BC or Bottleneck. I am guessing they might play one or two fest this year, perhaps Jazzfest?

    Yea, we won't miss much by them skipping these festivals but it is still nice to see them draw top billing or close to it at some of the major festivals from time to time. Perhaps they're skipping them b/c they can't draw that billing anymore, lol.

    DMB don't sell festival tickets. It's just gonna be another summer tour, and that's probably all we can expect from them for the next few years until they fade away (with maybe some occasional fall tours and D+T dates).

    That's extremely possible. They are not really top-billing worthy anymore at huge festivals.

    Festivals aren't so much about the music anymore, they're "experiences" for 15-25 year olds that can look cool on instagram. The only person taking selfies at DMB shows is Dave.

    I think its hilarious that people always talk ticket sales. Basically, when you have been on tour for 30 years straight, running the same markets, that they can draw that many people is pretty amazing. If they would ever take a solid few years off and do nothing and came back ... you realize how hard it would be to get tickets?

    I think, more than anything, what "hurts" DMB is the fact that they've toured extensively every summer for nearly three decades. They're not like other older bands like RHCP or Metallica that are only touring every 4-5 years (which will draw people to a festival for a chance that they may only get once or twice every ten years). It's not that DMB wouldn't be some of a draw to most any festival and worthy of top billing, but people have so many opportunities to see them every year that they don't have to go to Bonnaroo, or risk not seeing them for another 5 years. So a lot of festival promoters are going to look to lock down those other bands that they know people are going to say "I have to go see them, because I may not get another chance."

    If Stevie Nicks can headline Bonnaroo or Fall Out Boy can headline Hangout in 2022, DMB is still a top-billing band.

    Jazz Fest is a great fit for them bc there are more than just 2-3 headliners on a weekend. Would love to see them go back there

    Was originally slated to be the tour opener that year. Cville 25th anniversary show was added after the original dates were announced(sure that was by design) I want to say late March maybe it was announced.

    It was poorly attended and shotgun got barely any crowd reaction. Should’ve been played at a bigger stop. Wondering if that’s why it got shelved right away due to crowd reaction look for it on YouTube. Hopefully someone that was there can chime in.

    They didn't shelve it bc of the crowd reaction lol. It's never going to be a song that's in regular rotation.

    You can't play a rare song in Wichita and expect the crowd to go nuts. Play that at SPAC or Alpine, different story.

    If they were smart, they would have done that in 2021 (30 year anniversary and a return from covid). Would have gotten A LOT of people to attend depending on the lineups

    Yup.


    The best time to plan and commit to a new festival was 2020. Everyone what chomping at the bit during 2020 to plan a new in-person event.

    Everyone says the same thing each year. They are touring in 2023 and we will find out what the dates are soon enough. I find it hilarious people are being pessimistic in the weeks leading up to each years announcement.
