DAVE MATTHEWS BAND 2008 SUMMER TOUR DATES

We are pleased to announce the 2008 Dave Matthews Band summer tour dates! DMB will be hitting the road in late May for a full summer tour which includes a return to Canada as well as a few places where DMB hasn't performed in several years. In addition, DMB will also be adding a few new stops to this summer's tour! Below you will find a list of all confirmed dates, including information on the host of talented support acts that will be accompanying DMB on the road.

Fans attending DMB shows this summer will be the first to hear the latest material from Dave Matthews Band as the band debuts songs from their forthcoming record. DMB is currently in the studio with Rob Cavallo (Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Alanis Morrisette) working on the yet-to-be-titled album! Guitarist and long time friend Tim Reynolds is playing on the album, marking his first recording with DMB since 1998's Before These Crowded Streets.

NEW DAVE MATTHEWS BAND TICKETING INFORMATION

New this summer, Dave Matthews Band will offer tickets in three different price levels for a few events.

Members who select "Best Available" will have the greatest chance of being confirmed for tickets to the show, and, if selected, may be confirmed for tickets within any of the price levels, based on available seats in the Warehouse allotment at each level.
Members who choose Level 1 or Level 2 tickets in a venue with a three price level offering will be confirmed at either Level 1 or Level 2, based on availability. However, if there are no remaining seats available at those levels, these members will be eliminated from the confirmation process and will not be assigned to Level 3 seating.
Please note that the configuration for the baseball park venues in Charleston, Louisville, Memphis and Oklahoma City will be General Admission Field (Standing Only) and Reserved Seats in the Grandstands.
All Series Ordering Periods Begin: 12:00 p.m. (noon) ET, Thursday, March 6, 2008
All Series Ordering Periods End: 12:00 p.m. (noon) ET, Monday, March 17, 2008

Warehouse confirmations will be posted on or before the day prior to the public on sale dates which may be found in the Ticketing section of the Warehouse website on the Request Tickets/Tourdates page.

The Warehouse ticketing request period is not first come-first serve, the time at which you place your ticket request does not matter. Unless stated otherwise, members may request up to two (2) tickets per show and unlimited shows within each series. If you request multiple shows, please note that you may be confirmed and charged for multiple shows. All ticketing sales are final, no refunds may be issued. Once the ticketing request period closes, no changes may be made to requests. Please be sure to review the Ticketing Guidelines and Ticketing FAQs thoroughly.
