it's so big we need a 3rd thread about DMB! (just messin with you... there's already 2 other threads about this)

but yeah, it's a big name for the Brick to get... i think it'd be a better show at the Zoo actually - i'm not a big fan of the sound quality at the ballpark, at least at the Dylan/Willie show a few years back... it seemed to echo a little bit off the press box and the upper deck...

DMB puts on a good show - seen them 5 times and they didn't disappoint me any of them...

the 8000 on the field is a little surprising... are they going to move the stage back in the outfield and let people on the infield? they didn't at Dylan - there were only about 2000 on the field for that one...

Thanks for correcting me, I deserve that. I did a search, and didn't find a thread. I now see one other DMB thread. Maybe because I searched for Dave Matthews Band instead of Dave Matthews the other thread is titled? Anyhow, mods feel free to delete or merge my post.
