Widespread Panic Eyes April Run
Why the emphasis on “electric set up?” That’s just to tell you that this tour is fully plugged in as opposed to the band’s well received acoustic “Wood Tour” that took place in early 2012. Fortunately, that piece of Widespread Panic history has been preserved in the double CD/3 LP boxed set called Wood.
For the spring journey Widespread Panic is mixing its venues, playing intimate rooms as well as a few larger buildings with multiple nights planned for several cities. Here’s the itinerary:
