I don't see Northern Illinois University or University of Illinois on that list. Hell, I don't even see College of DuPage in there!

College of Dupage in 2000 or so actually had a few good shows. Local H and Caviar played gigs there. I believe a few other decent bands played there years ago as well.

And yea, wtf is with the no IL stop?

Is it safe to call them the new Dave Matthews Band?

you forgot to mention the opening act....RAZORLIGHT!!!!!!!!!

Respect to tthorn for filling me in on this! I'll be at the FAU opening event in Boca Raton.

I've never actually heard Muse, but I just wanted to point out the big fat lie in the subject line.

Well they are going to mine.

Are you crazy???

In what way does Muse resemble Dave Matthew's other than the sponsor and college locations?

DMB may have many college aged fans, but are so polar opposite to Muse in every aspect of music it's shameful to even mention it.

I am sure you are jesting in your post, but what is with the naysaying of any band that has even a modicum of success and popularity?

I assume that DMB comment was directed at me, right?

Whatever the fuck, Muse are an unreal band and I love those three albums everytime I play them.


np: LCD Sound "On Repeat" It really surprises me I'm just now finally listening to this album after being blown away by them over a year ago live. I guess I didn't know what to expect with this full length. I gotta listen more but my overall opinion is I'm a tad let down. Still some really, really good stuff happening here though.

I thought your initials were DMB? I'm confused.

I'm Dave M. B. So yea, those are my initials.


np: Absolution!

My friends and I are thinking of going to the MD show. I need to check my calendar, there's a slight chance that I may be in Scotland then.

wow - maryland or scotland. i hope i never have to make that decision.

The quote about DMB was directed at the King of Carrot Obners. Doc Ellis, not DMB04....that is all.. )

Any ideas when tickets go on sale?

This tour is also scheduled to play at the Tabernacle in Atlanta. I think your list may be incomplete.
