Today, just hours ahead of moe.’s two-night appearance at Albany’s Palace Theatre, the city of Albany, N.Y., has announced it will temporarily rename N. Pearl, the street on which the Palace Theatre stands, to moe.street, effectively immediately. The decision falls on the fifth annual “moe.day” which celebrates and honors the roots of the jamband, which came together as their members lived together on Central Avenue in the ‘90s

moe.’s first performance at the venue took place on Feb. 23, 1996, as part of a “Rock The Vote” concert, and this Saturday will mark the band’s 17th appearance at the venue. They’ll also share a video in celebration of the gathering with a video concert they filmed at the theatre’s lobby in the fall of 2020.

“We are overwhelmed with the love the City Of Albany has given our band over the years,” shared moe. guitarist Al Schnier in a press release. “From declaring Feb 24th as ‘moe.day’ to this, the dedication of moe.street in front of The Palace Theatre, we are humbled and deeply honored.”

The first moe.day took place in February of 2018 in honor of the band’s return after bassist Rob Derhak’s treatment for oropharyngeal cancer. Today marks less than two months since guitarist Chuck Garvey returned to the road following his stroke in 2021, and Albany Mayor Kathy Sheehan declared moe.day “alive and well.”

Following their appearances in Albany, the tour will head towards the southeast with performances in Flordia, Georga and more. The tour will also see the band stop in cities like Kansas City and New York City, New Orleans, Tulsa, Oka., Burlington, Vt., and more. Notably, the tour will feature moe.’s new official keyboardist Nate Wilson and they’ll enjoy support from Karina Rykman on select dates.
