Okay, hopefully you all will get this: The new album-- WOW! Aside from the songs that'll be on it and all that jazz, did anyone note the producer? No, well, I actually know a bit about him. See if you can follow this one: A former girlfriend and still good friend of mine as an older sister who went to Yale. She was seeing this guy from the D.C. area. He had a tape of this duo called Derryberry and Alagia. The first tape, called Southpaw, was a whole album with just the two of them singing w/ guitars (and occasionally you could here some bongos, congas, etc.). Then, a friend of mine came across another album by them called "Rutabaga Stew". This was a bit more of a full band arrangement with bass, electric guitars, etc. It was put out by a small label in Northern Virginia, but I never got around to calling them to get more info. I found out about the DMB through totally separate channels (they opened for the Samples on 4/21/93 in New York). But what a weird coincidence. Does anyone know more about Alagia? As well, I'm interested in trading for more DMB boots. E-mail me if interested. Thanks for listening ------------- Ben Tanen ------------- btanen@husc.harvard.edu -------------

Hey everyone! I am as of yet unintroduced to the DMB, though on the current tree, and as I saw that the grovels have started, I thought I'd jump on the wagon. So if anyone can get me started, I would be much obliged. I have plenty to trade in the way of other bands. Also, I live in Burlington VT, so does anyone know, how to get the band up here. Obviously there are plenty of places to play if you are familiar with all the good bands playing up here.

Dave Matthews Band is entirely too big for any bar in Harrisonburg. Unless

a freshman at JMU, you should have no problem finding a ride to Charlottesville
on a Tuesday or Richmond on a Wednesday (You will have a problem dealing with
the Trax crowd I imagine ;) ) DMB is huge in this area. TONS of people go
down every week. Good luck seeing the band...(BTW- I recommend seeing DMB at

In my opinion, lately the Trax crowds have been too drunk, loud and
disinterested in the music. Tuesday nights have become a social scene more
than a musical experience. I think the club's proximity to the school affects
the crowds. It's too easy for shitface "wahoos" to go to DMB and scream their
heads off while trying to get laid. It's a far cry from the old Tuesday scene
at Trax. I feel a wider touring range would help the band not only grow more
widespread (ie the hungry North Easterners) but would also give them a fresh
perspective on playing live. I have talked to Dave after Trax shows when
he has been very bummed about the crowd. They just "stomp on your buzz".

i have a show which shows dave's contempt for the crowd at trax. as early as the end of the first set you can hear the entire crowd screaming "HALLOWEEN" at the top of there lungs. the band continues right on through the night without any hint to where the song might come in(though everyone knows that the encore is a good place for bets). so the encore finally comes around, people are still screaming for halloween song and dave says casually into the mike "me and carter are going to do our seasonal song now." halloween has been done without a bass line before with just as much energy, but dave and carter break into (one of the best versions i've ever heard)--- christmas song. personally i find christmas song to be as powerful a song as halloween, but a crowd as inebriated as trax was that night is sure to disagree. i thought it was funny, but decided that from then on the flood zone is definitely a better place to see the band, but i can't get that far without my own car. rick thompson stu_rcthomps@vax1.acs.jmu.edu "work ourselves, fingers to the bone suck the marrow drain my soul..."

Come on. It's been three days. Why not wait it out a little. Hell, with the digest you still get the same messages. Why not just filter your mail, so you have a dmb folder. Granted volume has bee high recently, but it's only been three days. There has been little of substance to come through and there is only so much of that, it should die down (don't tell the people on Phish.net). My guess is that in a week or two the traffic will be low again. Let's face it. They aren't doing any big touring, they are only playing like twice a week in VA. What is there to share? -- Eric Budke budkee@unvax.union.edu Union College Box 241 Fax (Subj.

Here's one vote in favor of non-digestification. Traffic will die down soon.
And it's so much more convienient the way it is. Though being on any mailing
list must be rough if you don't have have mail filtering setup. Setting
it up isn't trivial, if enough people ask me how I'll write up a few paragraphs
on it, and post here, horde.net, finewine, etc... Though my knowledge is
limited to unix and the 'filter' program...

Subject: Digestification!!!!
Sounds like something you do after drinking too much. $-) anyway. There were some people who wanted the list digestified abd some that thought mailings would die down soon so why digestify it. So rather than digestify the whole list only to (maybe) undigestify it in a month or so I'm just going to let everyone take it into their own hands. Someone pointed this out earlier but people are still sending me messages about digestification so I'll post it again. To digestify your own list send the message "set minarets mail digest" to listproc@moose.uvm.edu that should take care of it. If it doesn't let me know. Alex Crothers

I'm a DMB fan here in Carlisle, PA (Dickinson College) but I'm originally from Lexington -- my dad teaches at W&L. Anyway, does anyone at W&L know if the Oct. 27 show will be open to everyone? Last time I tried to see DMB at Zollman's, security wouldn't let me in because I didn't have a W&L ID. That was okay last June when I was 10 minutes from Zollman's but I'd really like to know before I drag 4 of my friends 4 hours to not be let in. Help? Thanks, Reid Spice -SPICE@DICKINSON.EDU

To all those of you in VA...I need some help.
I am currently booking the November Virginia tour for Hypnotic Clambake, a
really cool klezmer/reggae/folk/bluegrass crazy band out of Boston. I figure
there are a lot of us Virginia college students here on Minarets.net, so here's
what I need:
Venues!!!
There is one crucial Friday (the 19th) that remains to be scheduled. I would
like to find a cool frat house that wants a cool band to play at a party or
something. Let me know if you know of such a place. Include names and #'s
if at all possible.
Also, if you know a cool club I may have overlooked, tell me about it. I
already know about Trax, Flood Zone, South Main Cafe, Bayou, etc. but if you
think you may know a place I don't (especially in Richmond) let me know.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer...

The Zollmann's show, as far as I know is open to everyone. It's the Halloween party which has always been open. There are rumores of it being closed, but I'm trying to find out what the deal really is. The show last June was closed because it was Senior Party and underclassmen had to pay $5 to get in. However, they played last January and it was open. Who's your father and what department is he in? Do you know Baner at all? Baner could get you in if you know him. If you have any friends from Lexington who go here, try to go with them.

The number for TRAX (in Charlottesville, VA) is (804) 295-TRAX (8729, i think). If you call and get voice mail, you can hit 1 for concert info (2 is to leave a message; do this only for serious inquiries and important stuff, please.) If you're driving in from out of town, let them know that at the door, especially if you're driving in from out of state. I think they'd like to know that, and if they know that folks are driving as much as some of you are (four hours? wow!), then there's a good chance that some gigs could be added closer, to meet that demand. So walk on down to TRAX, tromp through that door, and say, "Hi! I'm a Minaret Head from ______. This is gonna be a great show!" For most shows, doors open at 9 p.m, tickets are $6, and the show starts around 10:30. Some nights, DMB is out of town and TRAX features !ALMA! or the Charlottesville All-Stars, both of which are various combinations of members of other great local bands: Indecision, TR3 (check out Tim Reynolds!!!!!!), etc. For the most part, DMB plays TRAX on Tuesdays and (I think this part is still right) the Floodzone (Richmond, VA) on Wednesdays. On some occasions, as there was last night (10/19), there may be an opening band. Last night was the Hatters, formerly the Mad Hatters. (To note, their soundman, Ben Folsom, used to be the soundman for the Jolly Llamas and was, in the interim, house sound dude at TRAX.)

Overall it was a good show. I must admit it was a little disappointing
only to hear one set even if it was a long set. The only other time I saw
the band play only one set was a few weeks ago at Van Riper's but that
really doesn't count. Watchtower was incredible and Recently was another
high point. One thing that made an impression on me was that the band
didn't follow Minarets with Blue Water. I've come to think of them as one
song. Well that's about it. What did everyone else think? I'm curious

had never heard of them until I saw them there. I do remember liking their
sound, but I didn't rush out and buy all their music. Then I came down to
school and one day saw a flier around campus that they would be playing at
The Floodzone in downtown Richmond, VA. A asked a girl in my hall if she
wanted to go with me and she flipped out. Evidently she
has been listening to them ever since the beginning when they came out
with their first album self titled, The Samples. She brought over a tape
of their first album, b/c at the time they hadn't rereleased their first
disk and it was really hard to get a hold of, so I listened to their the
whole album and immediately couldn't wait to see their show. Now I know
that they don't jam on any of their albums, except maybe Underwater People,
but never the less their lyrics and sound is really good.
Anyway my point, I think I had one, was how come no one seems to
say anything on the Horde-net about them? A I the only one out their who
really likes their music? I was lucky enough to get a taped copy of
the show at the Floodzone, from a guy here at U of R who knows the guy on
the soundboard. Point: The Samples were excellent in concert. Put on a
good show, friendly with the crowd, and even managed to jam. Does anyone
else out there agree or disagree? There must be a couple more Samples fans
out there, I hope.
Second Eric Budke, I think it was your post that I read that listed
the GSW tour dates, anyway I was psyched to see that God Street Wine IS
coming to The Floodzone. When I got their August/September newsletter it
said that they were tenatively playing in Richmond at the end of Sept. but
then they moved the show to the D.C. area. I was bumbed, but now there
is gonna be a show and I'm definitely gonna be there. Will anyone else
out there in the greater Richmond, VA area join me?
I remember seeing a post or two about the Dave Mathews Band. Has
anyone else out there heard of them? I just went to a show on Tuesday night
and it was incredible. If you've ever heard them play you know what I mean.
If you haven't heard of them then I tell you what I know. There from some
where in Virginia I think, because he does a lot of shows in the Richmond
area. The lead singer is Dave, he has a black drummer, black saxaphonist,
and a kick-ass guy on violin/fiddle who really got the place rocking.
There's also a bass player, but he kinda stood on the side, didn't seem
really into it. I
I'm pretty sure that they're playing NYC on October 30. If your in the
area definitely go see him. If anyone is really interested I can post
his tour schedule for the rest of the month, but I don't have it with me
right now.
I hope to hear from some people about anything I've said. Have
a killer weekend.

The tour dates are out. I have questions (sorry if this has been asked/answered before) about new material being released. I hear that there is a live album set to appear around Nov. 2nd? True? And then a studio album that will be out in December some time? If these albums are really coming out, what label? Independent or major? Does anyone know the exact dates? And where abnnd when was the live album recorded? Okay, enough questions for one post. Take care. Reid -SPICE@DICKINSON.EDU

I'll tell you what I know. Or at least what I've heard. The Nov. 2 album contains both live and (I think) some studio material. Some of the live material is from this summer at The Muse in Nantucket. (Three songs I think) The Nov. 2 album will be on an independent label but their next album will be with a major/minor (?) label. Don't know when the second album is coming out. Sorry these answers are so vague but I don't want to say anything for sure because I heard all of this information second (third ?) hand, and not from Dave. Anyone else out there able to add/correct some of this information. alex Crothers

Just to add a bit about the album: The 8/19/93 show at the Wetlands was recorded by the band. My friend who was taping heard that they were in the process of recording six shows along the east coast (that would be during mid-August). Well, we'll see soon. BTW, what's the best way to get the album-- given that I don't want to spend lots of time badgering local record stores to get it, and more importantly, that I want it ON november 2nd, not weeks later. ------------- Ben Tanen ------------- btanen@husc.harvard.edu -------------

Subject: Mic question
I've found some mics that I really like, and am currently saving up the money to purchase them, but I've run into a small snag. Which capsule should I get with them. I'm looking at the AKG 460's cause I've really liked some shows I've taped with them, or gotten tapes of shows with. One is a dead show recorded with the short shotgun attachment. I can't afford this yet as the attachment is 299 a piece list. So I am then left looking at either the cartiod capsule, the hypercartiod capsule and the omni capsule which all seem to go for around the same price. These are the CK 61-3 capsules if that clarifies things. I recorded from the lawn at Stowe with a non shotgun attachment and the clarity and lack of crowd noise was unbelieveable. Much of my recoding would be from bars to theaters. Probably not arenas, no dead, and I don't forsee stadiums. So if ya got some opinions, I'll be happy to hear them, Any outstanding reason not to get the AKG's, any other accessories that I will need for portable recording? (besides a deck, I got one of those, Denon DTR 80p) Also a good place to get all of this stuff cheap would help. Thanks for any and all help. Sorry for the bandwidth if this wasn't your cup of tea. -- Eric Budke budkee@unvax.union.edu Union College Box 241 Fax (Subj.
