Dave Matthews Band to heat summer in Boise

COURTESY MCT CAMPUS - The Dave Matthews Band arrives at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards on Jan. 31
Dave Matthews Band (DMB) recently announced they will make a stop in Boise during their wildly popular summer tour. The show on Aug. 31 at the Taco Bell Arena marks their first concert in Boise since the fall of 1998.
Known for their improvisational skills and roots-oriented music, the band has amassed a devout following of fans by touring constantly since the early 1990s. According to Pollstar, DMB sold more tickets in the United States than any other band in the last decade.
Some students were pleasantly surprised by the news.
“When he announced the Boise tour stop, I was floored,” said Quinn Perry, a senior mass communication major and 10-year DMB fan. “Taco Bell Arena isn’t going to do near justice — but it is nice.”
Tickets go on sale Friday, Feb. 26 at 10 a.m. and can be purchased at idahotickets.com.
