Seeing them at the local house of blues for $30 and then seeing DMB in an Ampitheater in the same summer >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Unless they had the Flecktones openers at this point are a moot point outside of the alpine gorge run. It would raise the price of admission and in a stadium setting would push fans further from the stage.
I see a lot of older gem acts at my local smaller venues all the time in the same summer as DMB and it's better. I can got pit for Avett Bros in late may at a small music bowl in New Haven, and a few weeks later I was rail at DMB in June when they hit Hartford.
People bring up the hella mega tour but financially it is easier to book 3 bands like that in a stadium and keep costs low. Heck I saw Taking Back Sunday, Weezer, and Blink 182 at the Meadows in 2009 for the same cost as a DMB show would cost in 2009.
