The band is posed inside a stylized industrial space with a textured, light-colored wall, exposed horizontal metal piping, and two round, warm-glowing industrial lights mounted above them. The members are dressed in a cohesive wardrobe of dark, casual jackets, coats, and dark pants. Fifth from the left, frontman Dave Matthews is wearing a dark suit jacket over a black shirt, standing with their hands clasped together. The other six members are wearing various accessories, including knit beanies, a flat cap, and sunglasses. They are standing on a smooth, gray concrete floor.

Dave Matthews Band is like a clock, pretty much, hitting the same spots across the country annually.

This summer tour is a bit different. It includes three new venues (in Minnesota, Missouri, and Michigan), plus this recurring pilgrimage to the old Gary amphitheatre in Tampa.

While the roof at MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre is still fucked up after the hurricanes two years ago, fans will surely flock to the gig (DMB has sold 19.5 million tickets in the past 25 years according to Pollstar).

Tickets to see Dave Matthews Band play MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa on Tuesday, May 26 are still available for $73 and up.
