2016 Tour

Heard from a source within the negotiations that DMB is looking to lock up Zephyr Field in New Orleans for a mid May 2016 tour stop.

    Also, Mumford & Sons are also looking to lock down a 2016 tour date there as well.

    That's interesting. A slight shakeup in venues could be cool.

    Somebody also mentioned the possibility of a music festival in the works somewhere I thought? I'm all for more of a Caravan type setup, especially if it'll bring those kinds of setlists. Doesn't even have to be multiple bands, just a few 3 night stands instead of 40 shows.

    As far as I know it would be middle of May on a Wednesday (either the 11th or 18th) that they're looking at for Zephyr Field.

    Since the 2016 Tour Rumors thread was locked, perhaps we can discuss rumors in this one. I'll add this one to the list!

    Hopefully this means they'll be willing to play other ballparks, and that they'll return to Columbus, where they played to a sold out crowd at Huntington Park back in 2010.

    I guess I can add my own. I've heard the AMP (Arkansas) is interested in booking DMB again next summer.

    What are the chances they change up the schedule and stay the tour somewhere other than Texas? It would be cool to go to a tour opening show.

    I have good information that DMB is one of the main targets for the new amphitheater in Syracuse, NY next summer. The official name of the venue is Lakeview Amphitheater.

    thats been for over 18 months
    They wanted them to be an opening act for 15 actually.
    What they need to do first is finalize a promoter before its to late to book good acts until 17 and if it's not live nation then that's a stroke against their already questionable rep.
    Here are a couple news stories where it's clear they are after DMB

    And by "they" I mean Joanie Mahoney

    Yeah that's been a rumor in circulation for a while, I guess it needs added back to the list.

    I would really like to be a fly on the wall as DMB tries to book venues for summer 2016. Bases on their history of being a strong draw, you would assume they really are used to be given preference on dates. With sales going the way they are, you wonder if they will still get the same attention from venues when they are asking for high valued dates like Weekends, etc. DC sold well and I assume will still bend over backward to get DMB again, but I'm not sure all venues will share that enthusiasm.

    Really hope they do the AMP again. Was the quickest sell out for the venue and for last year's tour.

    Definitely not the best show and the debut of the ladies, but I'll take free housing at the grandparents and an in state show anytime. Trying to start a family and Dr bills means slim pickings on shows next year for me. :/

    I'll do some digging later today but I believe the 3 day Alpine rumor was debunked a few years ago. They aren't allowed to do concerts 3 days in a row I believe, and I recall some issues with camping permits at the venue as well.

    Not to mention a venue that barely sold well for 2 nights isn't going to add a 3rd.

    I'm sure most venues still want them. It will be interesting to see how it effects 2 night stops and weekends, though.
