I agree all fans would probably want 'the Big 3' but that doesn't really fit a tour campaign.

And, yes, I think Crash in its entirety would attract party goers, fans who haven't been to a show in 15 years and everyone in between. I believe you would sell out across the country in a 50 stop tour. The only losers would be those of us who go to multiple shows every year.

Think of a friend of yours who doesn't hate DMB but really isn't into the idea of going to a show in 2017(18). Now imagine telling that person they are playing Crash front to back. Do you think they now want to go?
Funny enough I have a friend who went to DMB last year after an 11 year absence. The idea of a full album Crash would probably be more appealing to him than what a normal DMB show is.

    I don't consider it a novelty, it's pretty cool for someone that might not have been a fan (or born yet) when that album came out and was toured, to be able to see it toured. I was 13 when The Joshua Tree toured, they surprisingly (sarcasm) didn't play a date in the Cayman Islands so I missed it. I've seen u2 once, don't really fussy their newer stuff, going to the Toronto show with a pair of US$70/ticket GA Floors! Get to see one of my fave albums live.

    It's the only reason I finally saw Peter Gabriel a few years ago paying $200/ticket, got to see "So" live, another of my all time fave albums.

    It is the definition of a novelty but I don't think there is anything wrong with that.

    Personally, as someone who is in his mid-30s and was in high school when Crash was the biggest thing on the radio, I know I could get a huge crowd of people to go to this sort of thing and everyone would have a great time.

    yeah no. those would be weekend shows and will close out the run, hardest tickets to get out of all. if there will be tickets on the ground it'll be for the rumored mid week shows.

    Busted Stuff, hands down, in my opinion has 2 of DMB'S greatest songs in "Grey Street" and "Bartender"

    While BTCS is my favourite I'd have to go for Busted Stuff or even Everyday, I think they would do something completely different with some of the songs that have not been in semi-regular rotation over the past few years

    I chose Busted Stuff because it has what I consider some of DMBs best live songs. BTCS is obviously the best album, but I’ve already seen all of those songs live. The idea of getting to see songs like Kit Kat Jam, Busted Stuff, and You Never Know makes me giddy.

    P.S. Doby, “So” is one of my favorite albums as well.

    Busted Stuff seems like a fitting choice

    Although I've seen every song off the album it's still gotta be BTCS
