“Couch Tour is back and we’re not messing around. UM is happy to announce yet another webcast collaboration between Umphrey’s McGee and TourGigs, bringing you the entire tour, a whopping 15 nights! We will be kicking things off TONIGHT in Cleveland, OH and bringing you every single show through the double header in Asheville, NC on February 20th. Shows can be streamed with an Event Pass for $12.99, or you can buy the Tour Pass - access to all 15 shows – for $129.99 (a $65 savings).
We are debuting some exciting new features for this tour. Firstly, anyone who purchases any show (Event Pass or Tour Pass) gets access to the replay as well as On Demand. The replay, available almost immediately after the show is over, is a looping replay of the show with no viewer controlled playback. The On Demand, available the day after the show, allows you to start, pause, fast forward etc. the entire show. The On Demand access will remain available throughout the entire tour until February 22nd. In addition, the chat room has now been optimized better for mobile, so you can have a better two screen experience of watching the stream on your television or computer while participating in the chat on your mobile device.
We always hope to see you in person but if you can’t make it out, consider yourself covered. The next four shows feature the great Joshua Redman joining us on sax so there is no time like the present to lock in your Tour Pass. As an added bonus for picking up the Tour Pass, you’ll receive On Demand access to the unreleased NYE 2015 run from the Fillmore.”

Produced in stunning crystal clear quality, these spectacular Incidents are now available on DVD, BluRay, or HD Digital Download! Order each show individually or package all 3 together!
Take yourself back to the mind blowing Saturday night theatrical set, complete with fireworks, hoopers, pyrotechnics, blimps, flying saucers and thousands of crazed fans!

Or who could forget the Sunday pickin’ session with Keller Williams and members of Yonder Mountain String Band and The Infamous Stringdusters. These shows truly capture the countless memorable moments of SCI at Electric Forest in 2015!”

In addition to the film and performance, the night will feature an open bar, theatre treats, raffle, and more. Partnering with our friends at Conscious Alliance, we will be raising money to feed those most in need, all while sending you home with a limited edition UM+CA event poster.”
