    I'm Megan. I have been a huge DMB fan since my first show in 97 at Somerfest in Milwaukee.

    I live in Minnesota. I spent alot of years traveling around the country seeing Dave. Now I have 3 kids and they have put a damper on the traveling, but I still see them at Alpine Valley every year and try to catch another venue or two in addition to that. Looking forward to another full summer of them touring!

    Yess! More tours! I'm planning on dragging my fiance to a show in the near future. He doesn't know this yet, but he will love it. (haha)

    I sell textbooks for a living--two years out of college (officially 2 years last week). I'm getting married in June. Hope to have awesome DMB fan babies in the next 2-3 years.

    Hi everyone... I am Shawn.

    I live in San Antonio and dare I say the biggest DMB fan here.. LOL

    Oh, and It looks like so far, I am also the oldest, at 40 years old. I actually grew up in Northern Virginia and heard about Dave in the local college seen in the early 90's, yes I am that old.

    I have been following Dave's carrer and music since 94 and love that I am still a fan today. I have also logged 37 concerts tours and shows.

    Anyone who is a Dave fan, is welcome to send me an FR.

    her name is Ziva, she is a Boerboel, which is a south african mastiff. she is almost 8 months old and is about 100lbs. she will hit about 140 when full grown.

    What kind of new puppy did you just get?

    Thanks for the FR.

    We have a small dog too. We have a tneacious little rat terrier that loves to pick on the mastiff puppy.. she grabs her lips and jaws when they play..

    Anydog is a great dog, if you love them.

    we just adopted a bernease mountain dog/lab mix. he should get pretty hefty too. about 100 lbs!

    Also, Tim is amazing! he tours with the band fulltime now. love it!

    I grew up with two rat terriers--they are fun, but a handful. Chloe (my dog) is essentially our child--haha. She is babied so much.

    our dogs are pretty much our Kids. My wife is a school teacher, so she gets her fill of kids all day, not sure if we will have any. I feel too old to have kids at this point in my life... the dogs are enough and easier to ignore when I need a break. they also enjoy a good DMB jam session.

    So happy to see the response to this thread!! Shawn, I am almost as old as you are, 37. And you'll have a fight on your hands declaring yourself the biggest fan! Nice to have some more DMB fans along for the ride. I have been lucky enough to have Shawn and Becky on my friends list for awhile so I am happy to meet the rest of you!

    I can't tell you how excited I got when I found this group.

    I'm Alice - I'm 42 - from the L.A. area and have been to 100 shows. That's right - you read correctly. 100 gloriously fun, exciting shows. I've been to many states and 2 countries to see them :))

    I thought I was done after last year - especially when they announced they weren't touring this summer - but I recently read that they're getting ready for a 2012 summer tour and I'm excited.

    Feel free to send me a Friend Request. I love to give and get motivation and I'm trying to be active on these boards.

    LoVe! Baby!

    Hi Alice, welcome to the group... You ahve taken over my spot as the "senior" member.. LOL.


    OK so here is the deal with the 2012 tour, we all live in different cities, so this way we can all follwo the tour and have a place to stay in each respective city where we have a fellow MFP DMB fan.. right?

    I am gearing up for the 2012 season. I want to catch atleast 2-3 shows next year, various venues. Hope to see some of you there.

    Just saw this pop up on the side and had to join. Love DMB! :)

    Hi I'm Alix/Lex, 31, been a DMB fan since 92-93 (I dunno along time ago). Have no idea how many shows I've been to, but I know I haven't been to any in the past couple years :( Makes me a little sad, but life gets busy. And I miss my old Hartford, CT shows. Currently living in CA (Central Valley).

    Hoping I can find my way to a show in 2012 at some point! *fingers crossed*
  • Hey everyone!

    I'm Deanna, 32 and I am an American living in Holland.

    Going to a DMB concert in Holland is much different than in the States. The fan base isn't that large here, and they play in smaller venues so it's not hard to get right up front and center at their concerts. I can't wait until they come back over here again!

    Feel free to add me:)

    Hi guys,
    I'm Sharon. Been following DMB since the early 90's and haven't missed a show at the Gorge since 2000.
    I'm a single parent of a 12 year old boy, work in the dental field and have 3 dogs.
    I've been on MFP for a while but chose to stay invisible...it wasn't working so well. Glad I decided to start interacting with people because everyone so far seems so nice and supportive.
    Nice to meet you all :happy:
  • Hi - I'm Johanna and I'm from Egg Harbor city, New Jersey. I'm 44 and have been a huge DMB fan since my first show in 2002 where he blew me away! Since then, I've seen Dave 20 times, including most recently all 3 days of the DMB Caravan in Atlantic City - my home town. I've always been a music lover, instilled in me by my parents who were hippies in the 60's - went to woodstock and named me after the Bob Dylan song, Visions of Johanna.

    The majority of the shows I've seen were in Camden or Philadelphia, but I did go to Charlottesville for one weekend of shows and I saw Farm Aid in Foxboro (Dave and Tim).

    I've lost 18lbs so far - and looking to get my old body back. Nice to meet you all!

    Hi everyone! I'm Tasha/35. I've been into DMB since 1994. I stopped counting how many shows I've been to. I saw Dave and Tim once at Perdue. I did a little traveling but since having kids, I've had to cut back and only see them when they come to town (St. Louis, MO).

    I can't wait to see them on July 11. Woo!
  • whats up everyone just got this app and im ready to go...love me some DMB too bad no winter tour this year :frown:
