Why would you assume it's going to be smaller? There is no official statement saying such nor any historical evidence to base it on.

    I'm not arguing, it was a genuine question. He used the "no official announcement" argument I wanted to see if he knew something in regards to his statement about it being smaller.

    Well, it's true there's been no official announcement from management. That's not an argument. In regards to a smaller tour, I can't say what I do or don't know, but I do believe we won't see a tour format we've been used to. If they tour at all.

    But again, sorry.

    I don't think anyone is being negative about this. Some are presenting the other side of the coin and people are getting bent out of shape over it. No one wants the band to end but it's going to happen eventually. Some think sooner than later, it's just discussion.

    Just in general, I mean. It's been 26 years so I am definitely not oblivious to the fact the end is the near for the band in the next 10 years.

    But I just try to stay as positive as I can on here.

    Could be, but I certainly hope in ten years I'll still be able to see Dave Matthews in some shape or form. Whether its DMB D&T or just D.

    Why does everyone think DMB is needs to call it quits when there are dozens and dozens of bands/acts that are 10, 20, even 30 years older than them still out there actively touring?

    The most frequent thing I've seen is because Carter is old and people think he won't play anymore and if he doesn't the band won't.

    Even though there are drummers older than him still playing.

    I tend to agree that it will be smaller in nature. I was just curious if you knew something... I know you won't say if you do or don't.

    He will play Dave solo and Dave and Tim shows until he can't anymore is my guess.

    Springsteen is 67 and still going strong and is about to do a residency which is wild. 17 years older my god

    Idk if I agree with that. I feel like “yes” brings more follow ups than a “we’ll see” kind of thing. Honestly, it just depends on who’s asking I guess haha.

    Do any of them tour like dmb?
    I mean every year and for as many shows?

    I can see them cutting way back on shows and/or every other year for example.
    I could even see what many bands do and tour regionally yr to yr

    My thoughts as well. Figured at least Dave would have a show, band makes even more sense, of course.

    Just read through a few pages of these posts...all the bickering back and forth is really asinine. It makes me sad. It's cool to hear some rumors from some people connected to the band, but damn. It's another level here.

    Anyway, WHO WANTS TO HEAR SOME CRASH INTO ME PERFORMED LIVE THIS YEAR BABAYYYYYYYYY

    Admittedly it's been a few years. Although coming back to ants again, it's almost hard to believe that everyone here even likes the band...

    A couple days back in the community and I'm sure I'll be a cynic again with everyone else

    Tim and Boyd would cancel a date or two in a heartbeat to play a DMB show.
