Jam band Widespread Panic announced that they are returning to the road after taking a nearly two year break from touring. The Georgia band, founded in 1985, will celebrate its 20th anniversay on the road with a 30+ live dates.
The announcement is music to the ears of Widespread Panic fans and jam band fans generally who were facing 2005 without a major tour given the recent retirement of Phish.
The tour kicks off in Atlanta at the Fox Theater in March and winds its way through the country, including stops in DC, NYC, Philadelphia, Chicago, New Orleans, and Dallas. The final listed stop is Asheville, North Carolina for May 7th, but don't be surprised if more dates are added.
