Could Miami still be on the table? My sources (voices…inside my head…voices) are telling me three nights at the Fox in Oakland now that we know Umphrey’s grew some balls outside of Atlanta/Chicago/Denver/St. Louis/Omaha.
I’m feeling a return to Chicago is in the cards this year but that’s just pure speculation. A new location would be sick though. Let the rumors fly!
I’ve given up on that pipe dream of them ever playing there for NYE. It’s just not big enough venue with it being so close to Chicago. Why play there when they can play in their “hometown” at the shitty Aragon and sell twice as many tickets.
Unpopular opinion, I would love to see UM play Phish late nights for Halloween or NYE some year. UM at Brooklyn Bowl Vegas post-Phish would be a blast.
Denver is definitely my cheapest option for seeing UM since they refuse to play multi night runs at a venue anywhere west of there that isn’t the bay area.
