Something to Be Tour
The Something to Be Tour is the debut concert tour by American recording artist and Matchbox Twenty frontman, Rob Thomas. Visiting numerous countries in North America, Europe, Australia and Asia, the tour supported his first solo record, ''...Something to Be''. The tour began in April 2005
, shortly after the release of the album. As the popularity of the album grew, the tour venues progressed from nightclubs to theatres to arenas and amphitheaters.
==Background==
Shortly after ending the More Than You Think You Are Tour with Matchbox Twenty, Rob Thomas began recording his solo effort. Described as a fusion of adult contemporary and pop music, the album was tooled to distinguish Thomas from his popular band. As the first single hit airwaves, Thomas announced he would embark on a mini-club tour in the United States to help promote the record. Thomas wanted to focus on his solo material but understood that many fans of Matchbox Twenty would also be in the audience. He remarked, "I play the matchbox songs in the way I wrote them Then I don't use any of other parts the guys wrote. You want to ride that line because some of the fans came because they are fans of ()atchbox ()wenty and then there has to be that () element of the reason you are on a break"〔 As the popularity of the single grew, Thomas expanded his tour to England, Germany, Australia and Japan. Additionally, Thomas performed at several notable concert events including Live 8 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
"The tour was amazing. That was, I think, just a really big…you know the only bad thing about it was there were only ten shows and we were done and we were ready for more. But I mean, I think it's been great. A lot of these songs were the kind of songs that, as you’re writing them and recording them, you’re thinking about you know you want to play them live. So a lot of them were born to be good live songs too." In October 2005, Thomas embarked on a full throttle tour of the U.S. performing in theatres. From there, Thomas journeyed to Australia to begin his trek into arenas. During the summer of 2006, Thomas co-headlined the tour with singer, Jewel. Many of Thomas' concerts benefited the Sweet Relief Musicians Fund and victims of Hurricane Katrina.
