2014.......better than ever, or same old, same old?

Trying to get a handle on the 2014 tour. Is it as good or better than previous tours? Are YOU going to more shows or less shows?

    3 shows in, really impossible to tell. The acoustic sets sound fantastic though.

    i'm going to less, but that's because of life/etc, not by choice. somewhere in the 10-20 range. 3 shows in, as previously stated - hard to tell. not the best start, but some nice surprises. can't wait to see what the rest of the tour brings.

    To be fair it's virtually impossible for you to go to more than previous years unless you went to literally every show

    Hey Maryann!

    I'm setting my personal record with 11 shows this year. Going to the next 4 (Pelham, ATL, SPACx2), 4 FL shows, then the Gorge...beginning, middle, end. 3 groups of consecutive shows. Hoping to hear everything one more time and then retire from traveling for DMB.

    I'm setting a personal record as well with 7. Going to the gorge for the first time, real pumped about that.

    Definitely scaling back after this summer. Unless something drastic changes with the sets

    Also scaling back from 6 last year to either 2 or 3 this year. Having a new baby does that.

    No clue yet. So far the acoustic sets have been great, the electric sets seem to be about the same as usual with a few surprises thrown in here and there.

    The acoustic bit is definitely the highlight of this tour.

    We'll know more after a few more shows, or at least a two night stand as to how they'll continue to handle it.
