Summer Tour 2023

KB would pull the plug on a 3 night run at a sick venue to insure the band gets to play one set at a dumb corporate looking fest.

If he is actually a stakeholder in the festival he probably stands to make more money by booking Umphreys at a festival rate and forgoing the Mish booking fees. KB is thinking long term probably takes 3-4 years if successful for a festival to break even so he needs to leverage his ability to influence Umphreys into playing it over the Mish if he stands to come out with more money at the end.

I swear that somewhere on this board, somebody said they’d never play the Mish again because the stage is too small or something along those lines.

Ya well it was cummins who said that and we all know cummins lies!

Seems weird for them to go Colorado>Indiana>Montana but I wouldn’t put it past them. Hope these Mish dates come to fruition I got arrested the week before the 2009 date and didn’t make the trek cause I had a court date in Illinois to go to instead.

Been to the Mish for Mike Gordon, Lotus, and Biscuits. It’s my favorite venue in Colorado. It also was a lot different back in the aughts.

Mish is looking real sexy since they replaced the gravel with turf.

Hell yeah. Just did 3 nights on gravel at the Salvage Station. I was sore for a few days. Not as bad as sand but it’s the same concept
