(Gibson) "I plan to do a lot of celebrating," Dave Schools told Billboard.com when asked about Widespread Panic's plans to celebrate their 25 years together.

"Twenty-five years is kind of a milestone to keep a band together through all the things we've been through. We've never had a chance to sit back and go, 'God, there's a lot of gigs under the belt.' So it'll be a good time to go, 'OK guys, we've made it a lot farther than anyone could have imagined'...and take a good hard look at how we can take this further, how we can continue to evolve as a group of people, not only musically but spiritually and hopefully in a positive way."

There won't be a new album any time soon but there will be plenty of concerts and a documentary movie that the band started filming in New Orleans in October. Schools says that they have "pretty serious backing for a major documentary over the course of next year."
