Dave Matthews Band Fans Get Something for Ticketmaster's Excessive Charges

03/28/2008
.
(PR) Tickets for Dave Matthews Bands' North American tour go on sale this Saturday, March 29th, and fans who purchase through Ticketmaster.com will receive a special bonus [for paying all of the ticketbastard charges]: an exclusive, free digital album comprised of highlights from the 40-city tour. Each ticket purchased through [their site] will receive a unique code in mid-September that can be redeemed for the digital album on the iTunes Store - a month before it goes on sale to the general public. Offer is valid only for venues ticketed by Ticketmaster.

Dave Matthews Band fan association members who have already purchased tickets through the Warehouse pre-sale will also receive a unique code in mid-September that will enable them to receive a free copy of the digital album via iTunes.

This year's tour commences with a two-night stand at Post-Gazette Pavilion in Burgettstown, PA (May 30th & 31st) and concludes with three consecutive dates at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA (September 5th, 6th and 7th). On-sale dates may vary in some markets, so check with your local venue or ticket retailer for specifics.

Dave Matthews Band is currently working with producer Rob Cavallo (Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Alanis Morissette) on its latest album. Guitarist and longtime friend Tim Reynolds has joined the band in the studio for the first time since 1998's Before These Crowded Streets.
