DMB Heading Back to Europe
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Tour News on 2/3/15 7:06am
The Dave Matthews Band is finally heading back to Europe. For the first time since 2010, DMB jumps the pond to play some shows according to The official site. The European tour begins in October, and the band will be making its first stop in Poland while there. They also hit their usual run of countries, France, Belgium, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Switzerland, Denmark, and ultimately in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Additionally, the band will play an extra show in Mexico on March 16 (the day after the previously scheduled show) and for the first time DMB heads to the Middle East. On October 8, DMB heads to the United Arab Emirates for a show in the growing tourist Mecca.
Keep an eye out for ticket info at the main site.
Dave Going to the UK in the Fall?
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Tour News on 4/15/13 9:56am
A press release promoting the European release of Away From The World has an interesting quote attached to it. "Dave will be in the UK late Autumn to play acoustic shows."
That certainly makes it sound like Dave Matthews will be in the UK in late Autumn, most likely to play acoustic shows (cwutididther?). Like everything else attached to press releases, we tend to tread lightly with them, and caution you to not book your flight on Virgin just yet to hop the pond. But does make sense given the release of AFTW in Europe.
Also tied to the release, according to the presser, is that the Live Trax Vol. 1 vinyl is part of a "series". Series generally speaking are more than one, so perhaps there will be more vinyl (the plural of vinyl is vinyl, I'm told) released? There is no doubt that the vinyl releases are more popular than at any time in the modern CD era, and fans are already plotting and stalking record stores for the impending LT1 release. So keep your eyes pealed for that too.
DMB Opens Europe Store; DMBLive Info
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Band Brand on 3/5/10 7:49pm
Also, in case you missed it, DMBLive released a new show, 10.24.96 from Austin, Texas. This show is the first multi-track show to be released in the DMBLive series. That's a good thing, mainly because it leads one to believe that if they are willing to release a multi-track recordings from full band show now, surely they'll release more "soon". As with all DMBLive releases, the shows are digitally mastered, which means it's not just dumped into FLAC or MP3, but rather the levels are balanced for each track to make the recording sound equalized.

DMB Postpones Two Euro Shows
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Tour News on 1/12/10 9:32pm
Dave Matthews Band has moved two of their shows at the beginning of the European tour to the end of the tour. The Official Site announced that the Opening Sweden and Denmark shows (February 13 & 14) are now March 15 and 14, respectively. If you hold tickets for the original show(s), they are still good for the rescheduled dates; no need to get a new ticket.
The move does however sort-of line up with the alleged Israel dates (a few days after the March rescheduled dates). Of course, the Israeli dates are not confirmed yet.
Europe Tour Dates & Dave at CMA Awards
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Tour News on 10/19/09 10:28pm
The much anticipated European tour dates have been announced. According to an email from The Warehouse. For now, the tour begins February 13 in Stockholm, Sweden and runs until March 12 in Birmingham, England. Stops of note include a show in Scotland, three in Italy, a show in Austria, and, of course, Amsterdam. The Pre-sale via The Warehouse begins on October 20 at approximately 10 am Europe Time(s). Check your local clocks and the Warehouse to get your ordering on. The Public sale begins October 23.
We mention "for now" because you may have noticed a dearth of Western European shows. France, Spain, and Portugal are noticeably absent from the tour listing. It wouldn't floor us if a few more shows were added in those countries to the beginning or end of the tour, but that is by no means a lock to happen. So if you're speaking a Latin-based language (except you, Italy), you better be safe and get that passport up to date and brush up on your Germanic languages.
Also, the eagerly anticipated TV appearance of Dave Matthews and Kenny Chesney will finally happen. According to People magazine, Dave will perform with Chesney on the Country Music Awards show, November 11. The program starts at 8 pm ET on ABC.
Dave: DMB To Return To Europe
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Tour News on 10/14/09 10:58pm
Dave has confirmed what everyone has pretty much expected for 2010; Dave Matthews Band is returning to Europe. In an interview with Guitar & Bass, Dave let his German fans know that DMB is planning Two shows in Germany in the Spring of 2010. Clearly, there will be more dates in Europe, and expect the Official Site to make an announcement before the end of the year.
Danke Schoen to Markus over in Germany for the tip!
European Big Whiskey Disc different
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Album News on 5/20/09 7:55pm
The blokes over in the United Kingdom will be getting a slightly different Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King. According to a press release from Warner, the album continues on from the last US track, You and Me to include Write A Song and Cornbread.
Back on the Crash album, tripping Billies was originally slated for a European-only release, but that was obviously change. Cornbread was one of the songs originally slated for the US bonus disc/EP, according to sources familiar with the process. But that thing's changed so many times, it's not worth even trying to explain.
The Europeans can expect Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King the same day as here in the US - June 2. But with the time change, I guess you get yours first. So you've got that going for you, which is nice.

Additional European Dates Added
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Tour News on 2/23/09 9:05pm
So it won't be a few days off in Europe for Dave Matthews Band. In addition to the festival shows previously announced, DMB will play at least three additional shows to fill in the days between the festivals. According to The Warehouse, DMB will be playing in London at Brixton Academy on June 25, Paris on July 1 at L'Olympia Bruno Coquatrix, and Amsterdam on July 7 at the Heineken Music Hall. Tickets are available via The Warehouse February 25, but you'll need a password to access the presale. So if you didn't get the email about the tickets, ask around.
DMB to Play Rock Werchter 2009 Festival
Posted by Jake Vigliotti in Tour News on 2/12/09 5:16pm
Summer in Europe? To say the least, DMB will be spending at least a few weeks across the pond.
In addition to the Portugal show, and DMB opening for Bruce Springsteen (hopefully without a ref running out and throwing a flag like the Super Bowl) on June 28, now the boys are playing in Belgium on July 2 at a festival.
Odds are that they'll play a few more shows or festivals between June 28 and July 11, so be on the lookout for more announcements soon.
DMB and Bruce to 'Rock Hard' in London
Posted by Joe M in Tour News on 2/10/09 10:58am
With scheduled performances in Europe on now June 28th and July 11th it looks to be that the band will be making a few stops in the area. Dave Matthews, when asked about returning to Europe responded "We’ve set dates”. To this point they appear to be festivals and the band is letting them be announced by each festival promoter. The Glastonbury Festival 2009 will be held from the 24th-28th, and has a good chance that the boys will try to stop by also, though the festival is already sold out even before announcing the lineup.
The last time Bruce Springsteen and the Dave Matthews Band teamed up was back in 2004, for the 'Vote for Change' tour to try to unseat President George W. Bush. Dave and many other artists joined Bruce on stage at the end of the night to sing (What's so Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding, and People Have the Power.
Tickets will be on sale at 9am local time on Friday and priced at 45 euro for a single day.
