News of the summer tour comes days after avid DMB fans expressed their outrage at theband’s exclusionfrom this year’s class ofRock and Roll Hall of Fameinductees.
Legends likeWhitney Houston, theNotorious B.I.Gand theDoobie Brothersmade the list, while Dave Matthews Band was noticeably absent. Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails and T.Rex also made the cut to be included in the esteemed group.
The rock group’s exclusion from the list came as a surprise to fans, given that they dominated theofficial fan vote leaderboard— the first time since the fan vote was established in 2013 that the top fan-voted artist was missing from the inductee list.
While DMB’s fan base was less than pleased, the group was gracious in congratulating the nominees in astatementon their website.
“Congratulations to our fellow nominees that will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame in 2020,” they wrote. “We want to express gratitude for all of our amazing fans and their support. We reached over a million fan votes! Thank you!”
