Dave Matthews Band Spring Tour Kicks Off

Posted by Matthew Yette in Tour News at 2:22pm on Monday, Apr 13th, 2009

What might be the most anticipated Dave Matthews Band tour in years kicks off tomorrow night at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The 17-show jaunt kicks off simultaneously with the radio release of the first single off of Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King, Funny the Way It Is. Tour time is the busiest time of the year for AntsMarching.org, and this time around is no different.

The most hyped part of the tour so far has to be the Official AntsMarching.org DMB After Party after the Friday Night Show in the band's hometown of Charlottesville, VA. If you haven't signed up yet for the party, please RSVP and let us know you're coming! Thanks to The Warehouse, we will be giving away lots of great prizes, including a ticket for an autographed copy of Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King, signed by Dave Matthews himself!

As is now tradition, we are again hosting The Setlist Game for the 2009 Spring Tour, with an opportunity to win the entire tour on CD for the person who proves to be the most accurate in guessing the tour's setlists. Taper recordings will be available in our Downloads Area for those who wish to download and listen to the shows. AntsLive! will again be up and running this tour, allowing anyone to send in pictures, texts and video live from the concert, for anyone watching the setlist to view. Be the first to post a live clip of the new songs with AntsLive! And speaking of live, if you don't already follow AntsMarching on Twitter, you should definitely take the time to do just that, and receive live updates from the shows as they happen. To follow along with the live setlist on Twitter, follow us @dmblive. You can even set up your twitter account to receive @dmblive tweets on your phone as they come in, so in effect you can receive the setlist on your cell phone, right as it happens! Of course, you can still sign up to receive the entire setlist on your cell phone after the show ends with our Mobile Setlists feature. And make sure to stay current with all DMB news with Mobile News.

If you're hitting any shows this tour, we wish you a safe and enjoyable time! Please be responsible when partying before/during/after the shows, and best of all enjoy what will be the very first performances of tracks from the upcoming Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King! After you come home from the show, head on over to Tour Central and enter your review in on your show's page. Don't forget to scan in your ticket stubs (and if you can get one, a band setlist) and upload them on your show's page as well. And as always, pictures of tailgating, partying, and the show are encouraged, so send those along too!
