None of That Illegal Stuff Allowed This Time, Ok?

Widespread Panic have announced a month-long summer tour to begin with single sets on June 21st and 22nd at the Bonnaroo Music Festival and end with three nights at Berkeley's Greek Theater, July 26-28. The tour includes the band's traditional three-night run at Red Rocks. If you're going and thinking of tailgating with your bong or what have you, think twice about the bizzare end to the band's last tour: One death and approximately 200 arrests took place during three sold-out shows at Oak Mountain Amphitheater in Pelham, Ala., April 26-28. Approximately 34,000 fans attended. (So that's about 30%?) The 200 arrests (half of which were felony charges) were part of an undercover effort called "Operation Don't Panic," initiated by the Pelham Police Department and the Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board... So be a very wary bear.
