| Waiting to Be Liberated...
|
added on 8/31/2013 |
In keeping with the tradition at the start of a tour, we have updated the "liberation list." This time, we have also updated and simplified the rules regulating which songs qualify for the list. Here are the updated ground rules:
1) A song joins the list when it goes 1000 days without being fully played live by the full band, and it is "liberated" when it is fully played live by the full band. Our definition of "full band" is fairly loose but generally includes a minimum of Dave, Carter, and one other member of the current touring band.
2) A song qualifies if it has been fully played live by the full band five or more times. The exception is that officially-released, Dave-penned studio songs qualify as long as they have been fully played live by the full band at least once (e.g., Baby Blue, Let You Down).
3) A song is disqualified if it has not been fully played live by the full band five or more times or if it is in the Defunct category (e.g., #36, Leave Me Praying).
Days Missing and Shows Missing are as of August 31, 2013. Shows Missing are approximate, especially for older songs.
No songs are in danger of joining the list before the end of the year.
There are 158 total qualifying songs, 121 of which are not currently on the list. Qualifying non-studio songs are #40, All Along the Watchtower, Angel from Montgomery, Blackjack, Blue Water, Break for It, Break Free, Burning Down the House, Can't Stop, Cortez the Killer, Crazy Easy, (Don't Fear) The Reaper, Down by the River, A Dream So Real, Exodus, For the Beauty of Wynona, Get in Line, Good Good Time, Good Times Bad Times, Granny, Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black), The Idea of You, JTR, Kill the King, Long Black Veil, Loving Wings, The Maker, Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard, Money, Money (That's What I Want), One Sweet World, People People, Recently, Road, Runnin' Down a Dream, Shotgun, Sister, Sledgehammer, The Song That Jane Likes, Spotlight, Still Water, Sugar Will, Sweet Up and Down, Take Me to Tomorrow, Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin), Time of the Season, True Reflections, and Water into Wine. |

| Updates, Bugfixes & Enhancements

added on 8/13/2013 |
While the band has been slacking for the past two weeks, our staff has been hard at work. In addition to plowing through some of the song note submissions and some other content updates in the works such as new song histories, we've also been adding site enhancements. Here is a complete list of what you might—and what you might not—notice:
These updates were made to the myAlmanac stats page and the Member pages:
1. Added teases & fakes to myStats
2. Added partials to myStats (which includes aborted songs)
3. Added song debuts to myStats
4. Moved upcoming shows from its own box to the left hand column (under tours attended)
5. All myStats boxes are now sorted by song title as their secondary sort
6. Got rid of the little empty box that shows up when you don’t have any upcoming shows.
7. Added date to longest performances
Show Page Updates
1. Poster and ticket icons now link to the new Tour Memorabilia page so you can flip through them like you can the setlist scans.
2. Added “Show number 12 of 34 at this venue” to the overlay that shows up when clicking the name of the venue.
3. Added venue column similar to the tour column.
4. Added My column similar to the tour and venue column. Currently only shows up when you are logged in and viewing a show you attended.
5. Reworked the counting of the tour and last columns:
a. The tour column is a little smarter and faster now.
b. Standardized the way partials are counted in the tour and last columns
c. It no longer counts cancelled shows and shows with unknown setlists in the last column
Tour Memorabilia
1. Now has a link to the full show details (similar to the set scan page)
Bugfixes
1. Fixed issue with tour leg separator not expanding across the entire table on tour pages (only happened when logged in)
2. Fixed issue where the poster icon wasn’t being displayed on tour pages. |

2001 was a very interesting year for Dave Matthews Band.
In January, the band was just coming off of a fall tour of the United States, during which they had not debuted any songs from the then-forthcoming Everyday album, with the exception of the new Everyday outro to #41. The band played a random one-off gig at the Rock in Rio festival in Rio de Janeiro on January 20, just their fourth-ever show in Brazil. Unlike every other trip to South America (or anywhere else outside of North America/the Bahamas, for that matter), there were no other shows surrounding this concert, which consisted of just seven songs, once again, none of which were from the new album. The band also made history in January by becoming the first major-label band to release a song officially on the embattled Napster peer-to-peer filesharing network (I Did It).
In February and March, Dave launched an unprecedented solo tour of radio stations to promote Everyday, playing I Did It and The Space Between as well as a handful of other tracks from the new album. During the beginning of this tour, the full band also played a few New York-based TV programs: Saturday Night Live, David Letterman, and TRL. On the night of the album's release, Dave sat in with Phish's Trey Anastasio in Richmond for a few songs, including Everyday, foreshadowing the future Dave and Trey encores on the 2003-04 Dave & Friends tour. The band announced the first part of its lengthy Spring/Summer tour, which they soon followed by adding second nights to several shows that sold out quickly, including Charlottesville. In March, dates for the second part of the tour were leaked via "hacked" URLs on their website. A few weeks later, the band announced the second leg of the 2001 tour; however, there were quite a few dates that were missing when compared to the leaked dates: Alpine 8/31-9/1, Minneapolis 9/3, Kansas City 9/5, St. Louis 9/6, Deer Creek 9/8-10, Riverbend 9/12-13, Polaris 9/15-16, Blossom 9/18, and Star Lake 9/20-21. These dates were never officially announced. At the end of March, about a month after the release of Everyday, the band's 2000 sessions with Steve Lillywhite were infamously leaked online.
In April, with less than two weeks to go before the pair of kick-off homecoming shows in Charlottesville, the band announced that it was cancelling the second night in Charlottesville due to poor ticket sales. With expectations arguably unreasonably high for the 4/21 Charlottesville show (the band hadn't played in its hometown in 5 years, which was half of its lifespan at the time, and these shows coincided with what was then believed to be the band's 10th anniversary), DMB kicked off the tour with a set that comprised mostly radio singles and/or Everyday songs. The list of dates on the tour t-shirts sold in Charlottesville included the rumored Alpine and Minneapolis dates, giving fans hope that those shows would be announced soon; they never were, and they (along with the 8/22 Vancouver date) disappeared from t-shirts sold at later shows.
In early May, the band played the New Orleans Jazzfest, a show which included a guest spot from Lenny Kravitz on Watchtower followed by a shocking performance of Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard with Paul Simon taking Dave's place. The latter hadn't been played since 11.17.92, making it currently the sixth-longest return of a song in the band's history. By mid-May, DMB had recruited Butch Taylor to once again join them on the road to help with the new songs, many of which sounded hollow without keyboards to flesh them out. From 5/18/01 until 4/1/08, Butch would play at every single DMB show. The first 2001 shows with Butch were a two-night stand in San Francisco with Carlos Santana guesting on Friday and Trey Anastasio guesting on Saturday.
By June, the Vancouver date had disappeared from tour t-shirts and from the official website without any announcement. Over the course of the tour, fans became aware of the reason behind the apparent cancellation of this show and the Midwest dates: Dave's wife was pregnant and due in mid-September. The band/management believed they could squeeze in the Alpine and Minneapolis dates, but they hadn't announced them yet; then they found out that Mrs. Matthews was expecing twins, which pushed her due date up to early September, and the band decided to end the tour in Salt Lake City. It remains unclear why the Vancouver show was called off despite its being before the Gorge and Salt Lake City shows; however, it was either due to Dave not wanting to potentially be out of the country when his children were born or to booking negotiations with the venue. The latter seems more likely as Salt Lake City is much farther from Seattle than is Vancouver, and at the time, it was not as difficult to pass between the U.S. and Canada as it is in today's post-9/11 world.
By the time Dave's children were born, the band had announced a brief international tour, on which they would play Mexico, England, Germany, and Australia. Then tragedy struck the United States on September 11, and international travel became increasingly difficult and possibly risky. The band pulled out of their international tour, but Dave decided to still play a few solo gigs in London. It would be 2005 before the band would finally play Australia and 2007 before they made it back to Europe (Dave played a few more solo shows in the UK in 2006). They have still never played in Mexico.

See the most recent "Waiting to Be Liberated" post for the "ground rules." Songs that are highlighted have been officially released (see Live Trax v26 write up).

On June 25, DMB management announced that the 7.30.03 show from Sleep Train Amphitheatre in Marysville, California (it now has a Wheatland address), will be released on August 6, 2013, as Live Trax Vol. 26. While this release is the 72nd DMB (or related) show to be released in full, it marks just the second DMB show from 2003 to see an official release, the other being 9.24's Central Park show (the 2003 Dave & Tim show from Appalachian State has also been released officially). Unless otherwise specified, all numbers and statistics in this article exclude Dave & Tim, Dave solo, and Dave & Friends performances and releases.
The 2003 Summer Tour began what would become a trend of the band using its non–album-supporting tours to dust off some songs they hadn't played in a while (see also 2006, 2010, and 2013 in particular). Of the 21 songs that would have been on our "liberation list" at the start of 2003, 8 of them had been "liberated" by the end of the year: Cry Freedom, The Dreaming Tree, I'll Back You Up, The Last Stop, The Maker, Pay for What You Get, Spoon, and Typical Situation.
Fans of Under the Table and Dreaming and/or Before These Crowded Streets will find a lot to like about this particular show as it includes five songs from each album, most of which are deeper cuts (i.e., not Ants Marching or Don't Drink the Water). Indeed, the opening 5-song run features three UTTAD songs followed by two BTCS songs, including the first time The Best of What's Around had opened a show in nearly two years.
Three of the songs from this show are already released on various compilation discs: Digging a Ditch is on Warehouse 5 Vol. 7/Warehouse 8 Vol. 4, The Dreaming Tree is on the Central Park bonus disc (Live At...), and Pig is on Warehouse 5 Vol. 6/Warehouse 8 Vol. 3. Previously, there had been 35 song performances released from 2003, with 30 unique songs; with the release of Live Trax 26, there will now be 53 performances, with 41 unique songs. Songs that now have multiple 2003 performances released are All Along the Watchtower (7.30 & 9.24), Anyone Seen the Bridge (7.30 & 9.24), Jimi Thing (7.30 & 9.24), The Last Stop (6.20 & 8.8), Rhyme & Reason (7.30 & 9.24), So Much to Say (7.30 & 9.24), Spoon (7.30 & 9.14), Stay (7.19 & 9.24), Warehouse (7.30 & 9.24), What Would You Say (7.30 & 9.24), and What You Are (6.30 & 9.24). Prior to Live Trax 26, no performances from 2003 had been released since 2008 (WH5v7/WH8v4).
The most noteworthy inclusion on this release, from a completion standpoint, is undoubtedly Sleep to Dream Her, which, after 12 years of existence, is finally getting an official release. The song was on the printed setlist for the 2001 Folsom Field released show, but it was cut from the actual setlist and has kept skirting release ever since. With the exception of Dreams of Our Fathers, which has never been played live, all of the songs from Everyday now have at least one official live release, leaving Some Devil (missing Baby), Big Whiskey & the GrooGrux King (missing Baby Blue), and Away from the World (missing Belly Belly Nice, Belly Full, Broken Things, Drunken Soldier, If Only, and Rooftop) as the only albums without that distinction.
This show has the second-highest rarity ranking of all the shows on the 2003 Summer Tour, second only to 7.3.03 in Chicago: four of the songs on this release were played fewer than 10 times in 2003: Minarets (8 times), Kit Kat Jam (7), Sleep to Dream Her (7), and The Best of What's Around (5), all five of which are seeing their first 2003 release here.
Six songs on LT26 will still have fewer than 10 official releases, not limited to DMB performances: Digging a Ditch (8 releases), The Dreaming Tree (7), Pig (6), Kit Kat Jam (3), Spoon (3), and Sleep to Dream Her (1). Five songs will now have more than 30 official releases: Jimi Thing (46), Warehouse (46), All Along the Watchtower (39), Crash into Me (34), and So Much to Say (32).
Here are the official release notes from DMB management:
7.30.2003 Sleep Train Amphitheatre in Marysville, CA is our next carefully selected volume in the Live Trax series. The show has a spacious but powerful quality to it, with the band members really living in the songs and enjoying the interplay between each other. Highlights of the show include the dramatic peaks of Spoon which had not been played since 99 [Ed. note: it actually made its post-'99 debut the previous night]; the intense Dreaming Tree jam; and the mini set of So Much To Say>Anyone Seen the Bridge>Pantala Naga Pampa>Rapunzel towards the end of the show. The version of Sleep to Dream Her might just be the best one we’ve heard and is a perfect example of the quiet cool of LeRoi Moore. Minarets is another powerful tune with a haunting sound thanks to Dave’s vocal delivery and the wingmen, Boyd and LeRoi, delivering another classic melody line.

In light of last night's double encore at SPAC, people have been inquiring about previous double encores, so we put together the following table of all shows with two encores.
While most of the band's (and related acts') double encores happen in Europe, there have been some in America; in fact, before last night, the most recent double encore was at the third night of the Randall's Island Caravan in 2011. Before that, though, the previous full-band show with a second encore in the United States was all the way back in 1996 at the Blockbusted Pavilion in Charlotte.
It's also worth noting that while the second night in Charlottesville in 2010 almost had a second encore, most of the band (except Tim and Boyd) stayed on stage and immediately started planning the next song, so we count it all as one encore. Finally, there very well may be some unknown setlists from the early days that would be on this chart if they were known.

On April 18th, DMB management announced that the 5.30.06 show from Maryland Heights, Missouri would be released as Live Trax volume 25. This marks a return to full band shows for the Live Trax series after v23 and v24 captured Dave & Tim shows. Appropriately, the 2006 Summer Tour opener ships on the same date that DMB opens their 2013 Summer Tour in The Woodlands, Texas. This was the third consecutive year that the Summer Tour opened at what was then named UMB Bank Pavilion and the third Summer Tour opener that has been fully released following Live Trax v18 from Virginia Beach in 1996 and the DMBlive series release from 1995’s Memphis show.
The most significant enduring legacy of this show is that this is the first show that Rashawn Ross had joined the band as full-time touring member. Ross was born in 1979 in the Virgin Islands and performed with many groups both live and in the studio. One of these bands was Soulive, who had a relationship with DMB going back to before Ross was with the group in 2001. Their opening run that May featured one of the all-time guest highlights when band members Eric Krasno, Neal Evans & Sam Kininger sat in on #41 on 5.15.01 in Phoenix. Ross himself guested for the first time in Hartford on 6.18.05 when he sat in on Louisiana Bayou. He guested the next night, then again later that summer at SBC Park with Krasno and finally at Red Rocks. By the end of the Fall Tour, where Soulive opened many shows, Ross was guesting on the majority of the set including several opened by Mike Doughty. He sat in on the entire Jazz Festival show on 4.29.06 and then joined the band for every show thereafter beginning with this tour opener to the present. According to interviews and behind the scenes videos, Ross has as much knowledge of the DMB catalog as the original members, has been a driving creative force and smoothed the transition from Leroi Moore to Jeff Coffin. His backing vocals have become as much of a live DMB staple as his trumpeting.
The 2006 Summer Tour is mostly known for the new songs that debuted. Pre-tour, Dave made a series of appearances in the United Kingdom in May. There, he debuted the new song Sister. This followed the debut performances of Ayhee (now spelled Eh Hee) that he performed with the Dave & Friends side project group on their Caribbean Cruise Getaway in February. Once the tour started, they spent several shows soundchecking new songs that were written prior to the tour. This led to a month-long series of staggered debuts beginning the third show of the tour with The Idea of You played on a new Veillette soprano 12-string guitar. Songs that followed were Kill the King (played a handful of times then abandoned), Break Free (with the ending jam severely trimmed after a few shows), Shotgun (a work in progress at its debut that evolved through soundchecks before the structure was finalized in August) & Can’t Stop (a bass riff that was expanded into a full song). At least two more songs were written in this period, but weren’t played live until 2010 – Break For It (this was known by its fan title “Run While We Can" until played and named officially) & Blackjack (a song not known about at all until its debut). The latter’s lineage was confirmed to one of our staff members by a member of the crew that night. As this release is the tour opener, none of these songs are on the release. But it does contain the first performance of Sister at a full band and United States show.
In general, the tour is perceived as a second year of Stand Up promotion, but the stats don't confirm that as truth. The 2005 & 2006 Summer Tours featured almost the exact same number of shows - 54, then 53. While Hunger For the Great Light and Louisiana Bayou still were the two most played songs in 2006, they are the only two Stand Up songs out of the ten most played that year. This is in comparison to seven of ten in 2005. The most played song in 2005 was Dreamgirl at 52 of 54 shows, but that number fell to 13 in 2006 and five songs were shelved for the whole year. Furthermore, more songs without a studio release were played in 2006 (mostly due to new songs) and from Crash than from Stand Up. The same number of songs was played from Before These Crowded Streets as Stand Up and only four more than Under the Table and Dreaming. In total on the 2005 Summer Tour, 43% of all songs played were from Stand Up (401 of 943 songs) while in 2006 the number fell to 15% (146 of 968).
Like many tour openers, on this night the band brought back a few songs that hadn’t been played full band in a while. Raven hadn’t been played since the 7.29.02 show at Saratoga Springs (1401 days) while Proudest Monkey was played for the first time since 9.8.02 at The Gorge (1360). These two performances are the 10th and 11th released liberations. Below this write up, we keep a running list of songs that have been liberated. We have highlighted the eleven that have now been officially released. This show is one of just seven shows in the band’s history that contain more than one song liberation and the first that has been released. It’s worth noting that even though its official liberation performance was a month earlier at Jazz Fest (the show before this), before that night JTR hadn’t been played since 8.28.01 tour finale in Salt Lake City. Another aspect to this show is the uniqueness of two of the power slots. This show is one of only ten shows that has opened with Granny since 1993 and one of nine shows that has closed with Everyday since its debut in 2001.
Comparing this show to what has been released previously, it’s the first full release from 2006 since Live Trax v6 packaged two shows from Fenway Park in Boston. Songs that were played at this that weren’t played either of those two nights are: Granny, Steady As We Go, JTR, Sister & Where Are You Going. This is the first time that Steady As We Go has been released as part of the Live Trax series and is only the third release for the song following Weekend on the Rocks (9.10.05) and the Warehouse 5 volume 6 (7.30.05). Other songs that have been released less than ten times are Hunger For the Great Light, JTR & Pig (six times each) as well as Raven & Smooth Rider (five times each). It’s also notable that it’s the first full show to be released that has featured then touring member Butch Taylor on keyboards since Live Trax v11 was released in March 2008. It’s the first full show released from what is now called Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre St. Louis, though a few individual tracks from the venue have been released: Captain (8.26.02) on the Warehouse 5 volume 5 and Gas Into Fire » What Would You Say (6.17.04) from Warehouse 5 volume 11.
Finally, it’s worth mentioning that this version of Granny was available for download as part of a Twitter promotion. If you retweeted a promotional message from DMB’s twitter feed advertising the 2013 Summer Tour, you were to download what was then an exclusive version of the song. The mp3 file was tagged with a Live at Central Park label, but it was determined that the song was actually from this show. It may have seemed obvious that a full show release would follow, but the most similar precedent was in 2010 at Christmas time when the band offered up a different mp3 file each week to fans who ordered merchandise from the website. None of the previously unreleased shows (11.2.10, 9.6.07 or 6.16.97) have followed as of yet.
We have updated our Sporcle Live Trax song quiz here, the Length Minefield update will follow some time later.
Here are the official release notes from DMB management:
“We have selected DMB's 2006 tour opening show in Maryland Heights, MO for our 25th Live Trax release. This show represents Rashawn's first show as a touring member and showcases the synergy between him and LeRoi. Highlights include an energetic Granny as a show opener and, in our opinion, one of the best live Grey Streets out there! This era catches the band honing in and experimenting with the "new songs" of Stand Up such as Louisiana Bayou and Hunger For the Great Light and newer pieces like Sister which came after the sessions for that album. Some rarer tunes, Raven and Don’t Burn the Pig, make this a show we think you'll love.
Please note - This item is available for pre-order. Live Trax 25 will be released on May 21, 2013. All items in your order will ship on or around May 17, 2013. Digital album will be available to download on May 21, 2013."

The annual Warehouse Fan Club CD tracklisting has been released. Every year there has been an effort to select songs that either have not been released on a previous disc, or if there is a repeat, it is a version that fills a hole that song's release timeline. This year is no exception as all songs fall into one category or the other.
The most notable and noticeable change this year is the move to ten tracks for members with status and seven tracks for those who have been a member for under three years. Previous packages have contained tracks with multiple songs that counted as one track. WH5v4 contained a spontaneous Blue Water verse and chorus played on a 12-string before fading into JTR from 12.8.00. In comparison to a full version of the song in its glory period, it is understandably left as one track. WH8v4 contained Daniel Lanois’s Still Water and Don’t Drink the Water as parts of the same track from 5.5.07. Though the former has been played in near entirety, it is still seen as an introduction to the latter and another drop-D song Bartender. However last year’s disc could definitely have justified having split tracks and the title changed. The Gravedigger Intro in Pantala Naga Pampa and the Everyday fake might have justified it. But the Water Into Wine that was listed as an outro to Halloween was actually the longest version of the song to date by a significant margin. Interestingly, it was played as a reprise outro a few times, including later that show and most famously out of Halloween again at Alpine Valley captured on Live Trax vol. 15. As it stands though, this is the first time since 2004 that the tracklist has officially expanded. On to the songs themselves (note: unless otherwise stated, this is the first annual Warehouse Fan Club release for each song).
1. #27 (9.16.11) – This is just the fourth release of the song and the first with Jeff Coffin. It is also the first release on any of the Warehouse discs from the Caravan tour.
2. Sugar Will (3.6.10) – Also just the fourth release and the only version that doesn’t come from the 2004 Summer Tour. It is the first song released from the 2010 European Tour and one of two major bustouts on that tour; the other being Big Eyed Fish on 3.14.10. The tour's setlists featured Big Whiskey due to the album getting more promotion in Europe than any of their previous efforts. But a sign-induced tease in Cologne led to more signs and finally on this night in London, it was played fully for the first time since 8.30.08 at the Gorge. In the dialogue preceding the song, Dave even jokes that they have no idea what the lights are going to do during the song. These versions are also notable in their jam structure with solos being taken by Rashawn & Tim, but not Jeff. One of the few consistent lyrics in the original versions “too much of a good thing may be not so sweet” is changed to “too much of a sweet thing maybe not so good.” They played the song the next night in Manchester as well, but it has not been played again since.
3. Tripping Billies (8.22.07) – This pick certainly stands out from the rest in a different way. While the song had yet to appear on a Warehouse release, this particular performance was previously released on the 2007 Summer Tour Sampler that came as a pre-order bonus to “Live at Piedmont Park.” It was included on both the eight track Warehouse only disc and the four track disc available to everyone. While there have been many instances of songs released twice, both as a single and as part of a full show, inclusion on two separate compilations has been pretty rare. Lying In the Hands of God from 6.12.09 was released on two online only compilations: iTunes’s exclusive pass to Big Whiskey and the Haiti Relief Project.
4. Recently (4.18.09) – This is one of two songs that have previously been released on a Warehouse disc. The previous version from 7.13.99 was released on WH5v3 back in 2003. This one is the longest performance of the song from the Spring Tour and contains the Pretty Pretty Girl and Take Me To the River outros. Most importantly, John d’Earth guests on trumpet. This is the live first song that has been released with him guesting. It’s a bit rare to get a whole lot of dialogue from Dave about older songs, but after this performance Dave explains that this is one of four songs that he and d’Earth recorded and played for Carter and LeRoi. At this point it’s obviously unknown whether any dialogue will be included with the release. Either way, this version is definitely one of the major highlights of a well-regarded show with fans. This is release number 27 for the song.
5. The Riff (9.7.12) – This is the first live release of the song and has one of the fastest tempos of the tour. It segues directly into You & Me.
6. You & Me (9.7.12) – This is the seventh release of You & Me. Lately the Warehouse has included full segue sequences. Within the first several discs, they left out Good Good Time from Rhyme & Reason, then left out Ants Marching and edited out the last section of the preceding #36.
7. Snow Outside (9.9.12) – This is also the first release of Snow Outside and is taken from the second show that played it at.
8. Typical Situation (partial) (9.19.07) – This is the 24th release of the song and it’s by far the most unique. The five versions from the 2007 Summer Tour are all considered partials on our site. This one starts off with Dave playing one quick chorus, then everyone jumps directly to the 7/8 jam through the rest of the standard live song. It’s the second single song release from this show after Stand Up (For It) featuring Joe Lawlor on guitar was released on the 2007 Summer Tour Sampler.
9. The Dreaming Tree (8.31.07) – This is only the song’s seventh release. Only three songs from Before These Crowded Streets have been less: The Last Stop (6), Pig (5) & Spoon (2).
10. Kill the King (6.6.06) – This is the second release, but first from the tour where it originated. It’s only been played a total of eight times; the only non-2006 performance was released on Live in Atlantic City. This is the third debut performance that has been released on a Warehouse disc following Mother Father (5.18.01) and Lying In the Hands of God (6.6.09).
Here is a list of studio album songs that have not been released on the annual Warehouse Fan discs.
Remember Two Things: none
Under the Table and Dreaming: none
Crash: Crash Into Me and Cry Freedom
Before These Crowded Streets: The Last Stop and Spoon
Everyday: I Did It, The Space Between, Dreams of Our Fathers (of course), Fool To Think, Sleep to Dream Her (still zero releases) and Everyday (just the fake on last year’s disc)
Busted Stuff: Where Are You Going
Stand Up: all except Hello Again, Steady As We Go, You Might Die Trying and Stolen Away on 55th & 3rd
Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King: all except Seven, Time Bomb, Lying the Hands of God, Why I Am and You & Me
Away From the World: all except The Riff and Snow Outside |

In keeping with the tradition at the start of a tour, we have updated the list of songs that have been missing from sets for over 1000 days.
The ground rules:
1) These are full band songs only, played in full (yes, we know that can be subjective, but we try hard to be consistent). Songs that were never played full band to begin with, such as Hold Me Down, Dodo, and Dreamed I Killed God are not included. If one of these songs is later played by the full band—such as Funny How Time Slips Away—it automatically qualifies for the list.
2) Dave Solo and Dave & Tim versions do not count as returns because they are not full band. The "Last Show" dates refer to the last known full band version. This is, after all, a full band tour. Our definition of "full band" is fairly loose but generally includes a minimum of Dave, Carter, and one other member of the current touring band.
3) We include only songs that have been played seven or more times, whether by the full band, Dave & Tim, Dave solo, or Dave & Friends. Songs such as Sex Machine, Eyes of the World, Sweet Caroline, and so on are not counted. We have made some assumptions, namely with Me and Julio, since there are so many unknown setlists from 1991–1993.
4) Studio songs that were played live are counted no matter what. The three songs confirmed finished in the studio but never played live—Dreams of Our Fathers, Trouble With You, Little Red Bird, and Belly Full (the latter two have been played, but not by DMB)—are not included.
5) Songs that are in the Defunct category, such as #36 and Leave Me Praying, are not included. However, if any of those songs happens to be played again, it will be moved from the Defunct category and retroactively considered a liberation.
6) Songs that have only ever been played with a particular guest, such as Love of My Life and Road, are not included.
Days since are as of December 8, 2012.

Where to start…
When a band has released over 60 full shows and enough extra live material to make up another 40 or so, it’s easy to understand how some releases can fly under the radar or seemingly slip by. However today’s Live Trax announcement has as much impact as the first one in 2004. Before breaking down the shows , we wanted to break character and say that 2.19.1996 is a show that our staff holds in such high regard that given the show itself and the other shows and tracks that have been released the last 15 years, we would almost unanimously have this one at the absolute top of our wish list. Even excluding the “on-paper” setlist highlights, almost every track is a highlight; fans of Little Thing and Say Goodbye should look forward to all-time great performances. When you consider all of the possible things that could cause a show to not be released (e.g. diginoise, cuts, rights to songs, just being overlooked, etc.) we as fans are lucky that none of them affect this particular one.
Today DMB management announced volumes 23 and 24 of the Live Trax series. Choice of shows aside, this announcement is significant for several reasons. First, all Dave & Tim shows that have been released have either been in-store or DMBlive releases. For eight years and 22 releases (comprising 24 shows), all of them had been full band shows. While there have been longer periods between Live Trax releases, because there hasn't been a DMBlive or in-store full release since mid-June, this is the longest period of time between full show releases since Live Trax volume 5 came out almost 6 months after the Complete Weekend on the Rocks. Of course this is due the Away From the World release that contained several live audio and DVD tracks on the deluxe edition. This is the third time that multiple shows have been released together in the Live Trax series, but the first time that have been given separate volume numbers.
These two releases stand out because they fill gaps in the released catalog. While the 1996 Dave & Tim tour was only 15 shows long, there hasn't been a release from the tour since the second official release Live at Luther College. Luther, still considered one of fans’ favorite shows, was released on the start date of the 1999 Dave & Tim tour. Outside of a handful of bonus tracks on Crash album CD singles and promos, nothing else from the tour has been released. 2.19.96 concluded the tour and it’s clear, especially when listening to early shows from the tour that both Dave and Tim were much more comfortable with set up and arrangements of the songs. The band had wrapped up recording the Crash album, of course this show is heavy with tunes from the album.
If you throw out Dave & Friends shows (there’s only been one released), there are very few shows left that would have three (or four) unreleased songs in the setlist. Depending on whether you consider Weight of the World as unreleased (listed as Leave Me Praying on the official tracklisting), this show has four unreleased songs. The first is the Soul Coughing cover Is Chicago, Is Not Chicago from their 1994 Ruby Vroom album. This is the debut performance of the song. It was played once full band that Summer Tour, a handful of times on the 1997 Dave & Tim tour, not played since. Next is an original, Hold Me Down. As mentioned in the understated official DMB release notes, Tim broke a string and while changing it, Dave played this one solo. However while he does mention it’s the first time he’s played it, of course it was played three times at the end of July in 1995. It hasn’t been played since this show, but the main riff was extracted and used as the outro riff in the Some Devil outtake Cigarette Lit. Next is what has traditionally been called Weight of the World. It is the first incarnation of Don’t Drink the Water. This version and its debut the night before have used that title and when it appeared again the next year’s Dave & Tim tour, it has been referred to as Leave Me Praying. This continued all through the Summer Tour until the Before These Crowded Streets release. Through the years, we’ve debated changing these first two versions to Leave Me Praying as there isn’t the clear separation between the two that there is in other cases. This will certainly cause us to revisit the way we have listed these first two versions. We’re never opposed to going against official tracklisting inconsistencies, but when it’s a toss-up, we’ll usually side with what’s official. Finally, Tangerine gets its first release. It was played a few times Dave solo in 1992 and 1993, but not played again until the night before this, and not played again. Rights issues are always tricky. No one except management can say why Tangerine is, but the Stairway to Heaven outros in All Along the Watchtower aren’t always releasable.
Looking at the two releases, Luther College has the following exclusive songs: One Sweet World, Deed Is Done, Halloween & Granny. Exclusive to New Hampshire are: Is Chicago, Is Not Chicago, Lie In Our Graves, Proudest Monkey, Angel From Montgomery, Hold Me Down, Leave Me Praying/Weight of the World, Tangerine & All Along the Watchtower.
Not to be overlooked, Live Trax volume 24 is 2.8.1997 from Spartanburg, South Carolina. This is the first release of any kind for this tour. The only track from the tour that has been released is a version of Christmas Song that was released on A Very Special Christmas 3 from 2.18.1997. Songs that are being released for the first time on this show are the Tim solo Letting Go and Dreamed I Killed God. The later was only played on this tour. It was born from the Minarets outro two nights earlier, expanded the next night, but this version is the first one that contained lyrics. The refrain that gave the song its title was not yet added. This is the first Dave & Tim release for Let You Down & Captain. It’s also the first full show with Let You Down, the only other version was full band on the Warehouse 5 volume 3. This version of Captain is before it was reworked in the 2000 album sessions. For a long, these versions were called Crazy. While we have dedicated most of this write up space to Volume 23, this show is a more than deserving release as well.

Here are the official DMB management write ups:
LIVE TRAX 23: 2.19.96 Whittemore Center Arena, Durham, New Hampshire
Live Trax Volume 23 is the first Dave and Tim show to be released in the series. For the special Dave and Tim debut, we have selected an exceptional 1996 show from the University of New Hampshire in Durham. This last show of the Dave & Tim tour that year includes Dave’s solo performance of never-before-played Hold Me Down. Tim broke a string and while replacing, Dave played the solo song asking the audience to name it. The jam from What Would You Say into Minarets is a definite highlight along with Leave Me Praying which is one of the coolest versions of the song we’ve heard. Other noteworthy parts of the show include What Will Become of Me at the end of Jimi Thing, the cover of Led Zeppelin’s Tangerine and the Cry Freedom closer.
LIVE TRAX 24: 2.8.97 Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium, Spartanburg, South Carolina
When selecting Live Trax 23, we realized that we had two Dave and Tim shows from the early days that were both so good they had to be released together. Live Trax 24 is a show from Spartanburg, SC in early 1997. During the show, Dave refers to a billboard displaying a message “Jesus is coming to a soul near you” in several songs: Two Step, never-before-played Dreamed I Killed God and What Will Become of Me. Highlights of the show include a rare Let You Down and Captain with some alternate lyrics. Little Thing and I’ll Back You Up are both rare treats in this setting. One of our favorite stretches of the show is Minarets>Dreamed I Killed God>Typical Situation.
