Fall/Winter Tour?...

[trippinHAYDENs]

So in the Citi Field thread someone mentioned that they spoke to Bruce and Fenton and that they implied that there will be a tour this fall/winter. Has anyone else heard anything about this?

Here is what was said in that thread, and don't attack the guy's credibility or call him a liar because he just said what he was basically told so dont shoot the messenger.

so about 4 songs later i see him again and he gives it to me halfway through the show.. it was pretty cool.. he made me promise not to share it with anyone until the show was over

" oh wow good question... i dont know .. hmmm..... good question i dont know... and then he said goodbye to go to the bathroom... and ok hey thanks .. and will i see you in the fall? and he smiled and shook his head yes..

Very cool that he was able to talk to Bruce and Fenton and if this is true i will be very very happy and i want to thank coyn for at least opening that sliver of hope.

Cville and MSG?

edit: this was the original fall tour thread, I think >> http://antsmarching.org/forum/showth...ight=Fall+tour

[SpotlightEyes]

I really hope so, as it could mean MSG, The Venue Formerly Known As Continental Airlines Arena, and more.

[nathan.davidson]

They have to end the fall/winter tour at C'ville. It just has to be done. and when they do, I'll be there all weekend.

Other probable venues: MSG, Vegas, something in PA (Wachovia Center, Bryce Jordan Center, or the new one in Pittsburgh), something in the south, Phoenix, Staples Center?, Pepsi Center (denver)?, something in the plains. the first 3 are pretty probable, but the last few are mostly guesses.

i talked to my guy who is head of entertainment group sales at MSG today and he said as of now he hasnt heard anything

That's really interesting. You would think that MSG would be one of the first venues that they confirmed..... then again you could be getting smoke and mirrors from that guy

[zachs21]

I could easily wrong, but I think the recent WH email about the Brazil shows might say "DMB closes out 2010 in S. America or something along those lines if they truly were done after those shows. So I'm thinking some sort of fall tour is likely.

[nathan.davidson]

the email didn't use any 'closing out the tour' language in reference to Brasil like it did to Wrigley (Wrigley will close the summer tour).

[stlbluespower]

The only thing I do not want to hear with regard to a Fall/Winter tour is that the close it with a New Years Eve show at C'ville. I would have to go and it could cause all kinds of family/money issues.

[rnbayne12]

so they have added a Oct 16th show, hopefully more to come! I'm missing out on everything in 2010 so far. I really hope we get a Xmas or NYE run. Hell I'll be back by thankgsgiving.

trust me, this guy wouldn't lie to me he would tell me right away. This guy is head of entertainment for group sales and we do so much business with them so he lets us know when stuff is happening before its announced so we can put in orders. When i talked to him this morning he said he hadn't heard anything but who knows, maybe that can change within a month.

i would have to drive down there for that as well. This summer just wasnt the best for me because i went to Camden n1 and Citi Field n1 so the sets weren't the best and i missed SPAC for the 1st time in 6 years and wasnt able to go to Camden n2 or Citi Field n2 when any other summer i would have been there. So a winter tour would make up for that and would make the wait until the next tour more bearable.

Edit: yes I did, I just checked out Almanac and it's on there. when was the announcement?

Gotcha, I just didnt know what kind of connection you had. I'm still crossing my fingers for MSG on Halloween Weekend, which is still a possibility

[Cscottrun]

Anyone know based on the past when they usually announce a fall tour?

[rnbayne12]

They will not release a fall tour date until the pre-order for the wrigley field albums is over. Calm down everyone!

what does a tour have to do with the release of a live cd? I'm not seeing how one is connected to the other.

[DJGeneral]

If there is going to be a tour starting in November, we would have to know pretty soon. They announced summer dates like what 2-4 months ahead? By the end of August at the latest.

are you kidding me?

[Jeffrey99]

Winter tour will not be announced until at least September, this is also going to be a short run of shows as has already been posted multiple times so they will not need much time to get it the ticketing done. You will see an announcement on the date/location of Farm Aid before you get a Winter tour announcement, last year Farm Aid didn't announce a location until August. This year is looking a lot like 2005, Summer Tour thru September, Rock Rocks added on/Wrigley added on....Oct shows in Vegas/Oct shows in South America, winter tour starting in November.

Based on the current schedule, I'd expect Farm Aid to be Sept 25/26th.

Also don't forget Dave or DMB could also play the Bridge School Benefit.


Here's the 2005 announcement, Sept 21st

Yea, I know someone at MSG, too, though not very high up, but they haven't heard anything either. But this person would not be one of the first like 30 to know hah, so it doesn't mean too much.

Yea, I'm pretty sure when they announced that random Izod show in fall 07 or 08 it was only 2 months advance or so, and that's cutting it close. But they also won't announced another tour when there is still like 15 summer shows left. Don't want to dissuade people from going.

[trippinHAYDENs]

good point, i wouldnt expect an announcement until at least September.

huh??????

[youneverknow34]

msg msg msg msg give me some dave at msg right now

[JustinC83]

too bad Jeff will be with the Flecktones from Nov 30- Dec. 19

[timg1414]

I would be shocked if there was a fall winter tour. It does not seem likely at this point.

[luke77c]

i have a friend who is a crew member and he said he was told that there would be work this fall, and specificly one he mentioned was times union center in albany, Ny in mid-late november ,so chances are MSG would hover around that time as well

Why is that "too bad"? The tour will just happen before November 30th.

It's definitely happening. Just a matter of when.

That Albany stop is one that keeps popping up. Good stuff.
