Hootie opening for DMB?

[dmlesch]

Do you think this could happen? I know Hootie doesn't fit the typical opener role for a DMB tour, but I would love this. Hopefully Boyd can talk them into touring together for some dates.

Would like it but probably won't happen. The Iguanas didnt quite cut it for me last year.

Oh god no, they were terrible. To me, it's always hit or miss, heavily leaning to the 'miss' side, with the openers. I think I've seen...about 4 out of 24 shows that I've actually enjoyed.

The Roots were good, tho.

i would like to see the flecktones open this summer.

I've seen them, just not as openers for DMB.

The only openers I've really enjoyed are Bela, Ben Harper, Josh Kelley and the D. Frankenreiter Band (they were fun!)

[PilotC150]

I've seen Jason Mraz (wasn't thrilled, probably just the bad sound of the United Center) and Robert Randolph and the Family Band (they were AMAZING)

When will we know who is the opener?

[The J2H]

Mraz and RRFB are the best 2 openers I've seen hands down. Thankfully, I spent extra time in the lot and missed the Iguanas.

Oh wait, I forgot about Macy Gray :lol

That would be sweet because you know bela fleck would have to get in on a few of the DMB songs.

I can't stand Hootie.

[greppson]

dickie betts was great.

[willnole]

I'd love Bela Fleck or Robert Randolph

[asmjm39]

I liked the Mule and Josh Kelly

My wife and I were out the other day and I swear I said to her I would love to see Hootie open for the boys. I have never seen Hootie, but I would love to. And what better way to see them than as an opeing act for DMB!!!

The Iguanas opened at The Gorge in '01...they were poo.

Didn't mind Josh Kelley during last year's Gorge run.

I honestly got down on my knees and thanked God for that one.

[brianlisk]

Modest Mouse would be an awesome opener!!

[dmbclstj2]

Mraz, RR& the FB, D. F. band, and vertical horizon were badass openers

dickie betts was great.


That's because Dickie Betts is great. :)

The Roots, Ben Harper, or Hootie and the blowfish would be cool. I'd like to see all three sometime this tour, Ben Harper especially... :)
