Detroit with the Dave Matthews Band


Joining as ONE

Last night was our first real taste of loading in and out in the snow, luckily we have a smaller set up for this tour than U2, so loading in and out is down to a finally tuned, fast moving science. Nonetheless, doing it with snow blowing in your face while trying to go faster than the merch semi that is also trying to back into where you are parked is an exciting challenge, even for experienced pro's like ourselves.

Detroit has proven to be a very supportive town – we had a great response when we were here a little over a month ago with U2 – and it proved that again, with lots of DMB fans signing up to join.

Had another great crew of volunteers as well, including the Grimmer sisters, who are quickly becoming our concert regulars, having helped us out at the Warped Tour and U2 earlier this year, and Shawn who was also with us at the Detroit U2 shows some six weeks back. En route to catch a plane to Boston right now, U2 show tonight – our third stop at the Fleet Center with the band this year, looking forward to joining back up with them!
