People in Every Direction: The Ants Podcast

With tour dates (probably, maybe) imminently upon us, we talk about the prevalent rumors and some possible new venues that might get some love this time around. The boys also reveal the voting results for the first volume of our "Best Version" featurette: Joy Ride. Featured: Last full-band Don't Burn the Pig, Don't Drink the Water

2016 is here and it’s just about the most wonderful time of the year… tour date release time. But before we do that, 2015 needs a proper send off, and some speculation on what 2016 will bring. We kick things off with a review of Europe and the unique sets/shows/venues that band played, then take an in depth look at 2015 tour attendance numbers, and close out with your twitter questions. A bit of built up tension gets released too. Featured: Dreamed I Killed God, Everyday (with Matisyahu)

Matt and Joe return from the Gorge with chapped lips (the wind, you pervs) and a weekend full of thoughts to share with Jake and the rest of y'all. We talk about the wild swing from Gorge night 2 to night 3, and of course the Ants Periscope during each night's set break. Oh, and Joe's going to Europe, as if you're surprised. Listen in!

There have been nine new shows to discuss since our last podcast and for once one thing is not up for debate; they rock. The three amigos (with their drinks) discuss the highlights from the latest shows, rank the best of the bunch, and debate the tour developments.  We have a lot to discuss this podcast from the band keeping us on our toes, to your variety of questions.

The tour is now finally into two-night stands with Camden and SPAC and we get to see what kind of variety the band is playing. New trends have started to emerge among the acoustic set, the encore, and with the guests. As usual comment on if we want these new trends to Stay or Leave. Also we do a bit of shotcalling, as we recorded this podcast just before the latest two-night stand at Deercreek (read as Klipsh for casual fans). We don’t want to spoil it, but let’s just say we hope we didn’t Let You Down.

With a couple of weeks gone since our last podcast, Joe's obviously had some time to hit the books and brush up on his familiarity with Webster's. The gang talks about these past few shows and goes full-on ESPY's, but without the controversy. Hear our picks for the Dave Matthews Band Summer 2015 tour first segment MVP and so much more!

With ten shows down the summer tour has some definite shape and plenty to discuss, including the impressive recent form. Plus, Golden Pipes Matt returns from his overseas hiatus and it gives us a chance to recap the start of the tour. We also discuss the three new pieces of music we have in front of us, and get to as many of your questions as we can. Note, it’s recommended you listen to this podcast with a dictionary close by.

Now we're a bit bullish. We pulled off the pod without Matt last week, and we decided to double-up. On this week's podcast, controversy or debate? The DMB community was definitely up in arms last week, but not all on the same page. We'll recap what happened and then give our take the stake of things. Plus we'll discuss the new Rolling Stone article, latest guests, and new song. Few comments on the latest series of shows and then we answer your questions!

Can you hear me? Is this thing on? It’s summer time which equals tour time and there’s plenty of exciting stuff to discuss that we crammed into this latest podcast. Webcast, New Songs, DMB2SETS, First 3 Shows Reviews, New Album News, etc. Golden Pipes MC and Host Matt is roaming all over Europe so we attempt to bring a podcast to you without the help of Mr Podcast. If you’re seeing this then we did something right!

Yes, this episode is introduced as Episode 46 in the podcast. Math is hard; just ask Joe M. Anyway, we kick off the new year with an hour-long catch-up session that touches on all things tour, 2-sets, and of course, some healthy Alpine speculation.
