Can you promote in r/dmb?

Dave Matthews Band news, discussion and more.

The short answer

Only participate as a genuine community member focusing on DMB-related topics; avoid promoting or selling products—if you must mention your company, be brief, transparent, and ensure the post is primarily non-promotional and directly relevant to Dave Matthews Band.

What works here

  • Discuss tour dates, songs, albums, videos, and other DMB-related topics
  • Post ticket buying/selling only in the sticky thread
  • Engage in general conversation and help fans without commercial asks

What gets posts removed

  • Posting or soliciting sales of your product or service
  • Using posts to generate leads, advertise, or recruit customers
  • Posting tickets or sales outside the designated sticky thread
  • Memes without prior mod approval
