For most Dave fans, the 3 day weekend at the Gorge is the holy grail of shows. Every year for 3 nights in a row, the Dave Matthews Band puts on the show of the tour. Even last year (2011) when he announced he wasn't touring, he ended up doing half a dozen venues for what they called, the Dave Matthews Band Caravan, a multi-band 2 stage extravaganza culminating with DMB in the eve. The Gorge on Labor Day was one of these.
For the better part of the past decade, I've spent every Labor Day weekend at the Gorge to see Dave. At the time of this writing (3/9/2012), I already have tickets secured for the late Summer shows. *Here are a few pics and clips from the'06, '07, and '08 shows...
