Dave Matthews Band & Jack Johnson – Live Nation

May 17 2010

imagesSummertime means one thing: the start of tour season. This year, two jam band heavyweights take to the road and will make their way to Alpine Valley.  The Dave Matthews Band will be playing two shows July 4th weekend. Jack Johnson, who is touring in support of his latest album To the Sea, will play at the end of July.  100% of his 2010 tour profits will be donated to charity.

Together with Live Nation, we will be promoting both of these shows.  We printed posters for each artist which we are distributing throughout the Chicagoland area.  Both acts are notorious for selling out amphitheaters, so be sure to get your tickets as soon as possible.

Dave Matthews Band plays Alpine Valley July 3rd & 4th. Jack Johnson plays Alpine Valley on July 24th. Please visit www.livenation.com for more details.
