By Waldo Jaquith
The "Dave and Friends" tour has been officially announced. As rumored, Dave Matthews will be touring with Trey Anastasio, Brady Blade, Tony Hall, Ray Paczkowski and Tim Reynolds, with "special guest" Emmylou Harris and her band, Spyboy. It's not clear if Harris will be opening for Matthews, or playing with him. The twelve-stop tour will take Matthews and company around the country, with dates in Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New York, Connecticut, Illinois, Washington and California. The date that the tickets go on sale to the general public has not been announced, but the Warehouse lottery period runs from October 9-October 20. Thanks to Emily for being the first of many with the news. 10/11 Update: The public on-sale date is November 1, and Emmylou Harris will be opening.
