I've gone a year without a show. This year, for example. I can take or leave DMB nowadays.

    Re: Your 2015 Tour Plans (More/Less/Same/No Shows)

    Assuming they play places like Scranton, bethel, jones beach, etc again that got skipped this year, probably more. There are about 10 shows on a normal year to year basis that's within a 3-4 hour drive for me, so I hit those every year. Than I try to do a plane trip or 2 to a new venue I've never been to, than try to do the gorge at the end of the year. I don't judge based on the set lists, but the fact is I have so many friends/family that expect me to do certain tour stops lol. So Hartford, SPAC, Camden, mansfield, jones beach, etc are usually a guarantee, and they are usually all 2 nighters.

    Well, since I didn't get to see them this year, I hope I'll see more than 0.

    Same amount of shows. Blow it all on one show. Would prefer they come through St Louis again, but Chicago was fun.

    DMB was playing literally a couple blocks away from me downtown Chicago and I didn't go. Literally could walk to the show in less time than it takes to watch an episode of Seinfeld, and I skipped them both.

    So no, that won't happen.

    It's starting to get to the point where if you've seen lets say 7 or more shows from 09-present, there is no need to see DMB anymore, unless you just love this band (i'm in that catagory so im not bashing). With this lineup, you know what you're getting. You know pretty much exactly what you are going to get, how it is going to sound, and when it is going to be played. For 2-3 times a summer, I'm okay with that...but the days of people seeing 10 shows a summer have to be pretty much over I would think

    I will always see the band, but my days of traveling for one night shows are over unless things change set list wise. I can also say my days of doing multiple two night stands close together are likely over as well. I can easily see myself going from 5 to 8 shows per summer to 2 to 4.

    I would imagine if this poll reflected all of DMB fans and they saw a 23% drop in ticket sales, that might inspire them to change and play some better sets.

    Considering I only went to 1 this summer, definitely more. Would love to hit up the Gorge and WPB in 2015, will have to see how funds are though. I love this band. Will see them as much as I possibly can in the future!

    Re: Your 2015 Tour Plans (More/Less/Same/No Shows)

    I would like to think that I will be able to do close to the same amount...went to 4 this year, had a blast, and still love seeing this band live. Depending on what the tour schedule looks like next year, i would hope to see either the SPAC, Camden, NC or VA shows and hit a new venue. More than likely I will not be able to do much planning, but make more last minute decisions.

    I voted less, but that's cause I'm hitting the gorge this summer. I'm doing that in addition to jiffy lube live last month. Next year I'll probably try to do spac weekend and that's it. (Haven't been there yet, isnt too far to travel to) If they come back to Hershey I'd do that as well since it's the closest venue to me.

    Probably do the same. This year did Texas and Chicago. Next year we'll probably do Texas and WPB.
    Unless they play Colorado, would do that instead of WPB.

    Same.

    I live 20 minutes from SPAC and will always hit those shows up.

    Had fun at those 2 shows, but no great desire to see more. Part of me actually pondered selling my night 2 tickets to a friend who was really hungry/itching to go.

    Same. I did 7 shows in 2010 and by the last show i became bitter and sick of the band. Since i've only done one hartford night a year, and honestly it reignited my love for the band. I may do both nights in Hartford next year if they have 2 nights, just because i have missed warehouse the last two years because i didn't go to night 1. Still have yet to see it live...

    We'll see what happens at the Gorge but so far - yikes.

    If Berkley is any indication and even 3 night shows aren't safe, next year I'm still going with "less shows"

    Will probably pick out a two-nighter with a higher probability of them playing a real DMB set. Probably SPAC. Maybe Alpine. Maybe Gorge. Depends on where they decide to play and the dates. I may even skip Atlanta. There's not a snowball's chance in hell I'm going to more than three shows next year.

    While we're discussing it, I think that's Dave's strategy. Wear the obsessive ones down until they all just throw in the towel. This band might have a 1-3 years left in it. They have have to be getting bored too.

    Less. Hopefully Alpine. I have a lot of weddings though so that will dictate a lot. If they don't play Alpine, there's a chance I'd skip going to shows next year. Chicago as a venue was awful.

    We'll see what happens at the Gorge but so far - yikes.

    If Berkley is any indication and even 3 night shows aren't safe, next year I'm still going with "less shows"
    What was wrong with Berkley? I didn't go to the shows.

    We'll either go with the same or more. Wife mentioned Gorge, but due to the timing of life and everything else, it just wouldn't work this year.

    So we'll either go with our usual two shows, or we'll add the Gorge.

    We'll add Hershey if that comes back as well. Always love that stop.

    Voted less, but that's only sure for summer. Total number depends on whether they do spring/fall/winter arena shows as well. I recently decided the following:

    - I will always do Camden/Philly, MSG and C'ville.

    - I plan to go to SPAC at least once a summer, but may see Phish there instead.

    - I will return to Gorge, but not in 2015.
