@Megan_With_No_H What is face on a pit? Can you buy a WH pit without buying the package ?

It's so weird to me that people think folks just magically get pit tickets or that I'm in the pit every show. I did pit 3 times this year. Got confirmed one show via WH. The other two I bought from someone selling their extras. Watch the boards and tickets pages. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@b_harr27 My boy's 1st show.. they fell asleep 😅 My only shotgun!

7/23/13 The Wharf Amphitheater, Orange Beach, AL #DaveMatthewsBand ~First time "Crazy Easy" has been played in nearly 9 years; “Crazy Easy” hasn’t been played since 8/30/13 the Gorge ~Band's first of 5x playing The Wharf

@Fallen_Punk Usually there's not much wind when it's Hot.. it's actually windy. But It's the warmest wind ever

@john_aday Outdoor sauna

It feels like it did after Rita.. Its more than just Hot

Its a bit warm...

@marknificent The woodlands - 2015 Dallas - 2008 & 2019 '08 I only did The Woodlands Skipped TX for Colorado '15 & '19 This year I got all 3 TX and CO covered 🤞

@john_aday @SLessard @davematthewsbnd What? Most of the Halloweens I've seen live were in Texas. Once at The Gorge also.

So... Halloween 🎃 I've chased for 25 years Deer Creek & SPAC got it Means it will likely skip both next year. Assuming Fiddler's doesn't get it.. Knowing TX is cursed.. 2027 Best chance Alpine ? @SLessard @davematthewsbnd

@MGrable @SLessard @davematthewsbnd I'm leaning creek.. Might need help with those hotel dates 😅

@john_aday @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Creek is an awesome venue to travel in for. Quick flight, great airport, lots of reasonable hotels/restaurants, great tailgates, good venue sitelines and easy to find pavilion seats. Alpine, like SPAC, is a logistical nightmare. If you're serious about either hit me up next yr

@MGrable @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Really hoping for Fiddler's 🤞 Wanna do 1st creek but Alpine is very tempting 🤔

@john_aday @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Generally two nighters have the best odds. We got a shot at Fiddlers but I wouldn't say it's likely. I charted all the plays since '18. Best odds to hear it in next calendar year: MSG fall 2026, Alpine 2027 (if they play), West Palm 2027, Gorge 2026 or 2027, Chicago fall 2026.

@KevinMPearson @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Gorge is not the easiest logistically for me but I'm looking

@john_aday @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Fonz has no bearing on the setlist. Do Gorge.

@RotatorInterval Fiddler's is my last chance 2026 Looking at best chance next year

@john_aday They didn’t play it last year so it’s sure to happen this year 🤞🏻

Just go to the Gorge

@irishdmbf7 @DMBLauren @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Just got it. Thanks

@john_aday @DMBLauren @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd This group..did you guys not get an invite, yet?

@irishdmbf7 @DMBLauren @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Got it

@DMBLauren @john_aday @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Just sent you an invite to the Group on FB

@irishdmbf7 @DMBLauren @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Thanks!

@DMBLauren @irishdmbf7 @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd I'll look into that

@irishdmbf7 @john_aday @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Oh that’s good to know

@DMBLauren @pjcarefree @irishdmbf7 @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Im old. I need a bed and a/c

@john_aday @pjcarefree @irishdmbf7 @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Camp at wildhorse!

@feezel_connor @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Fiddler's is my last stop this year! Not expecting to get it 🤞 Wanting a new Venue '27

@john_aday @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Fiddlers can very well get it. Same w/ gorge: if you’re doing all the west coast shows I’d bet you’ll get Halloween

@pjcarefree @irishdmbf7 @DMBLauren @SLessard @davematthewsbnd I don't love driving at night.. And I would want to enjoy an adult beverage.. you book a year out or requests warehouse hotel?

@john_aday @irishdmbf7 @DMBLauren @SLessard @davematthewsbnd I stay in Moses Lake and have for the last 10 years. Yakima is a haul and so is Wenatchee. I stayed there the few years prior. There’s always somebody you could ride with as well.

@irishdmbf7 @DMBLauren @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd Thanks.. I'll check it out

@john_aday @DMBLauren @pjcarefree @SLessard @davematthewsbnd The drive from Moses Lake is not that bad about 40 minutes and we didn’t think it was that bad. The Hotels and Airbnbs sell out fast so you have to book really early. Wenatchee is 50-60 minutes with winding roads and the hotels are cheaper.
