I'm watching the OSU vs. Texas game, and I think the band just played Joy Ride when they were going to commercial break

does anyone have any idea about how much DMB makes a year touring?

i thought i read somewhere that it was $57 million.. which seems a bit high.. i found some older site that says about $40 million

anyone know for sure?

i'm doing a power point on DMB for a class (it's just a simple one that only has to be like 10-12 slides), but i have to include 2 graphs. any idea on what would be something good to make a graph for? Preferably a pie graph...

i already did one on album sales

i just used some random poll at nancies

unfortunately, i've only seen them once, so your idea wouldn't work too good for me :(

i finally started to read "Step into the Light" today, pretty interesting though it could have written better. Dave wanted to name the band Dumela

2 ideas: amount of shows per year, or percentage of how much certain songs are played (showing how much they play songs like ants or crash in perspective with how little they play #34 or blue water or something)

They should close the last show of the tour with that song. Go on for about 15 minutes, after which Dave does pass out. :lol:
