This past weekend in Hartford, CT, Dave Matthews Band kicked off the 2010 Summer tour with 2 stellar shows full of big surprises for fans!
Anticipation for this tour doubled when the band announced that they would be taking a year off in 2011.
Despite the warmer nights, and abundance of green, it's hard to believe that another year has passed. After a long, and unusually snowy winter, the flowers are blooming, the pollen is flowing, and this weekend, the Dave Matthews Band kicks off their 51 date tour at the Comcast Center in Hartford, CT. Although the fairest season doesn't officially start until the solstice on June 21st, many believe that DMB's premier concert officially marks the beginning of summer in their hearts.
Dave Matthews Band kicks off their European tour on February 16th, and while European fans are getting their DMB fix, the 2010 Summer Tour dates for the U.S. have been announced and planning can begin!
DMB will be hitting many of their regular stops, with the addition of a few ball parks like Citi Field, Nationals Park and PNC Park!
In addtion, DMB will be performing for FREE in West Valley City, Utah on August 17, 2010. Warehouse members will be charged a $5.00 convenience fee plus an applicable shipping fee only.
