Dispatch, the band who drew more than 110,000 people to their most recent hometown appearance at Boston’s Hatch Shell and was the first independent band ever to sell out New York City’s Madison Square Garden, a feat they repeated for three consecutive nights, today announced their first summer tour in nearly a decade.
Highlights on the tour include the first ever concert at the 25,000 capacity, brand new Red Bull Arena soccer stadium in Harrison, NJ, less than 10 miles from Manhattan, the famed Red Rocks Amphitheater outside of Denver, the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA and a hometown stand at TD Garden in Boston. Dispatch has taken the extraordinary step of setting ticket prices at $40 across the board. Tickets go on sale to the general public at 12 Noon local time on January 28th at www.dispatchmusic.com. Fans are also invited to sign up at www.dispatchmusic.com beginning today for access to a special presale which begins at 12 Noon local time on January 21st and runs until the public onsale.
The band is offering free downloads of their entire studio album catalog to fans who help get the word out about the summer tour. By following a few simple steps – including friending Dispatch on Facebook, following them on Twitter and sending five friends an email about the tour – fans will get a special code to enable the download of the band’s four studio albums. Complete details are available at www.dispatchmusic.com.
Tickets will be available for presale beginning on January 21st and to the general public beginning on January 28th. More information and tickets are available at www.dispatchmusic.com.
