I absolutely get it. The rescheduled show in Fort Wayne last fall was by far the happiest show I've ever been to--and I've been to a lot, as I'm sure you've deduced over the years of seeing me pop up again and again 😂

I am bursting at the seams to be apart of that all-encompassing joy again.

See you in Detroit and Chicago and beautiful, beautiful Red Rocks.

After such a long time of being stuck indoors and being afraid of the many chaotic things going on (2020 especially was like something out of a strange dystopian novel) music and togetherness are helping us to heal and have fun again. I like to think that if there ever is a little piece of heaven on earth, it's in the form of concerts. I definitely felt that when I saw you guys in Las Vegas, singing and partying with my pals, hearing Mikey's guitar shredding blasting straight into my face, getting to meet and hug you and Ben, and bopping at the awesome after party that Kilmore hosted for us! I don't exaggerate at all when I say those were some of the best days of my life *ever* and I can't help but feel like more amazing ones are to come.

One of my good friends is gonna see you guys tonight, this will be his second time. When September 1st rolls around, that will be my third time and my mom's first time (she's been listening to Incubus as much as possible so she can rock out and sing with me and I fucking love it). I feel like you can never go to an Incubus concert just once, because there's a unique atmosphere of joy, love, and togetherness that you don't find anywhere else and you keep wanting to come back for more. I have a feeling I don't just speak for myself, but many of my pals in the Incufam as well!

Have fun and enjoy the sunshine, unique culture, and fascinating history of the South! Love and hugs from Washington as always, and I'll see you in Ridgefield! (^-^)

It was a DREAM to be at your tour opener in West Palm Sunday night. Had never seen you live. Wow!!! Thank you so so much for pouring so much into your craft. I’m a 37 year old mama bear who was on cloud 9- just feeling like a teenager/young adult again. All the best to everyone on this tour. Stay safe.

While I am so jazzed you are touring and I am freaking excited to see you guys I have to admit concerts scare me now. I went to Deftones in May this year and got the Vid. I managed to escape it for over 2 years and then whammy. I was super sick. So, while I did buy tickets to several shows this tour, that experience put me on edge and I’ve decided to only do Philly. So Merriweather, Holmdel, and Jones are out for me. I usually do the circuit but I just can’t. Call me old. I mean I am. But I’ll live vicariously through the youngsters who post the videos. I’m sad and yet I’m still happy. Life goes on. I also won’t be meeting and greeting. I can’t imagine doing that anymore. I’d feel fucking terrible if I got someone sick. Stay well on the road. I’m sure it’s a little freaky.

I also am finishing grad school this week with all that thesis stuff so as much as I want to take a break and drive to Maryland for a show Friday, it’s not in the cards.

Not sure why I wrote a small dissertation on something you really don’t care about. Lol. #nerd

Keep up the tour diaries. Can you start them with Dear Diary??? ✌️

Oh my gosh you’re doing tour diaries! Not sure why I didn’t expect you to. I’m so happy! Can’t wait to see what you’ll say for the Irvine show in a month or so :)! Hope you have a fantastic tour, you all are killing it!

And the LOTR references…you’re my absolute favorite <3

Brandon, my bestee Kate and I were so privileged to be in the audience in Tampa for the recent Innings Festival....well, we are honestly still on a high. I'm truly not bullshitting you. And....we are counting down the days for August 9th at Blossom in Ohio. Y'all mean a lot to a lot of us. 💖

Take great care and we'll see ya soon!

I’ve lost count how many Incubus shows I’ve been to in the past. However, each show is magically memorable. I’ve seen many different artists live in my 31 years of life and as many people I am sure can attest to... I’ve never felt such a profound connection and love for music and the artist(s) other than you, Mikey, Jose, Ben and Chris. You all are truly my favorite band ever and I will always make a grand attempt to support you all in your endeavors. I can’t thank you enough for sharing your passions with us. I wouldn’t be where I am in life without you, truly. You all are my safe space, my home. Hope you have a safe, fun tour this summer and fall. I’ll be sing/screaming along to every word in Houston next month. ☺️🖤 Air high fives and hugs for now. -Heather

I wish I could be there for the performance. And I’m traveling to Atlanta next week as well. But this may not be the time for me to catch this genius at work.

I am very grateful that your beautiful presence and most talented band mates chose us in sweaty West Palm Beach once more. There was a wave of love that could be felt through the thick humidity in the air. Thank you and safe travels on tour and beyond. 💕🥰

Being able to see live music again has begun to heal me after being a nurse in a COVID ICU for the last 2 years. This show transported me to a place that made me so euphoric and sentimental, I wanted to cry. So amazing, thank you
