so a story eh? yeah, two friends and i drove from here Northfield Minnesota to Chicago to see the band, an 8-9 hour chug in Jo's jeep, whee, and hell they only played for 30 minutes for they were opening for the Samples but it was worth it, we'd all agree fortunatly we stayed in chicago and ate pizza and talked about God with the Reverend hey, and ask Dave P. or Drew D. about driving to Richmond!, sillyness anyhow edTop Permalink
Greetings Minaretheads - Finally, at long last, here is the final tree posting for The Dave Matthews Band show in Charlottesville on 10/26/93. Sorry for all of the delays, I won't go in to specific reasons for the delay (not that anyone would care, anyway). To anyone who hasn't participated in a tree of this nature (sorry to those who are very familiar with this), here's how it works (an example using the first bracket): 1) I send Jim Pollock the copies of 10/26 that I have made for him. 2) Bill Shaw, Jamie Treworgy, Steve Mayer, and Sami Kitmitto contact 3) Rob and Ed contact Bill, and arrange to send blanks or trades, In a nutshell, contanct the person directly to the left of your name (your "parent") as soon as possible, and work out whatever details you need. Any questions, email me (Dave Forbis) at dforbis@birch.ee.vt.edu Please don't ask me to add you to the tree! There will be over 70 copies of this show floating around, and it should be easy to get a copy. Again, any questions, problems, lost parents, email me.

if these times of ever changing information i have more to add. the wetlands show with Tim Reynolds and Dave Mathews is back on. Joan Osborn is opening and since it is New York City who knows who else will show? i have some other information too. DMB, in an effort to battle the evil ways of Ticket Bastard, has created a mail order system (kinda). it's not really "mail-order" but number is manned (sp) by the management (Jane). they are selling tickets to most of their shows (but not all) and is definetely worth checking out (since its free). there is a service charge of about a dollar or something which if you compare it to Ticket Bastard isn't bad. besides, if I have to pay a service charge i'd rather pay it to the band i'm buying the ticket for than to a big corporation like Ticket Master. hope this helps some of you all out. some bands have been trying to set up systems to cut out ticket bastard for years and here DMB is, "jumping in with both feet." of course, it will all change when they get too big to have only one telelphone ordering hotline. alex CrothersTop Permalink
I've always hated TicketBastards, as I'm sure most people will agree about. Do you think this action to set up the band's own 800 order service will spark motivation in some of the other bands we pay TM to see? I completely agree w/ alex... I'd much rather pay money to the band than to TM; I'd almost pay more to them than I would to Tm in fact. --WillTop Permalink
relaxing, and fun winter break during which i took the opportunity to listen to DMB about 67% of my waking hours. finally, i am becoming truely aquainted with DMB. i expanded my tape collection and began to understand the infathomable complexity, flair, uniqueness, energy, and beauty of Dave's voice and guitar. DMB, in an effort to battle the evil ways of Ticket Bastard, has created a mail order system (kinda). it's not really "mail-order" but my MOTHER just got a dang 800 number. that's how easy it is. she just filled out a little form and sent it in, and my house will have an 800 number within the week so all the kiddies at college can call home for free. it costs less than $4 per month for the service and the long-distance rates are charged to the owner of the number instead of to the caller. the rates were decent -- a little more than regular long-distance rates, but the non-peak rates start 3 hours earlier, meaning you can call at 7 for a discount rather than waiting til 10. for the length of time it takes to order tix, the average call would probably cost DMB around $1.50 or $2. therefore, any service charge they impress on us is probably still a money-losing operation, given that someone has to take time to answer the calls. but it will be well worth it -- they will avoid cheating their fans, and they will avoid chunking profits down the TicketBastard tube. i hope the one-line thing is not a problem & i urge us all to be patient; think of the time you'd spend on hold with TicketBastard. now at least you'll just hear a busy signal then you can go back to listening to tapes and hitting redial. problems of supply and demand have plagued all of history...... but this is a worst-case scenario..... there's a lot at stake here....... if i don't see DMB again soon i might just curl up and die..... love,danielTop Permalink
Hi everyone - Somebody recently emailed me asking how to subscribe to minarets. Well, I can't remember what the address of the server (or whatever you want to call the node that echoes all of the messages).

Hello netters...been a while since my last post. Quick update...yes nye was a blast...got some new tapes...talked to Dave some...heard the band quite often on the radio...I'm ecstatic that the band is doing so well across the country...word is that he's been on the radio all over the place...my roommate from Albany returned to tell me he'd heard them on his local station...and he thought I was their only loony fan...anyhow.... about this sister thing...it's really great news to hear that Dave will be returning to play as early as he is...if his shoes were on my feet, I'd be way to bitter and depressed to get back to the spotlight so soon. It's not always that "peachy." However, sometimes it's situations like these that spark the creative spirit in us. There aren't too many great poets who haven't had some terrible experience or just a miserable life in general. Often it is the situations such as these that bring out the creative juices in us. Kind of morbid...but true. Anyhow maybe we can hope to see a new batch of songs...perhaps miserable...perhaps Halloween Pt. II, since we never really saw any from his retreat to John Alagia's house over break. Well just some thoughts...

This is the structure for the Dave Matthews Tim Reynolds tree for the 12/12/92 show in Charlottesville. Do not send requests to be added...THIS IS THE FINAL STRUCTURE...bother one of the folks below if you want a copy ;) send me blanks with postage both ways. or 2) You can arrange a trade for Phish tapes. Other tapes will be considered, but I have access to pretty much all of the DMB tapes I want. However, if you think you have something really neat or old, we can talk. One way or another, get in touch with me and let me know if you want to send blanks or email your Phish list. malloy@osprey.hac.com blakec@infi.net spice@dickinson.edu cpi9238@ritvax.isc.rit.edu jeg5s@virginia.edu This is more of a bush than a tree, but that's probably better for me and Rick, because we've never done this before. If any of the addresses above are wrong, talk to Rick. If you signed up, but don't see your name here, talk to Rick. Thanx to all those who volunteered to be branches. I know that a lot of you are itching to trade with lots of people, but this tree just turned out so small. If your a leaf who is going to send blanks, remember that you should include return postage, as well. But you can work that out with your branch leader. Questions? Ask away. Like I said, me and Rick have never done this before, so we may be going in a completely wrong direction. ************ What would you do if I ate your Daddy's shoes? ****************** * Gregg Carrier (aka Uncle Zany, the guy in the floppy green hat) * * JMU Box 1734 stu_gjcarrie@vax1.acs.jmu.edu * * Harrisonburg, VA 22807 (703) JMU-KIND * *********** What would you say if it was naturally for you? ******************Top Permalink
Does anyone else think that True Reflections is one of the cheesiest, most un-original songs ever? Sorry, that was rude; but I had to ask. Has anyone noticed that the net has been very quiet lately? I wonder why that is. Anybody see the Everything show at Trax the other night? Leroi and Carter (as well as The Authority) joined them on stage for an amazing Soulfish. Does anybody have any bootlegs of Everything? ***kang well in martinlan; vermin fourth, now vermin fifth*** ****I think I'll go outside and flag the weasel for a ride****Top Permalink
Hello again netters--this is actually my second post since the holidays but I don't think the first one ever got put up so I'll try again. I was just thinking that I'd be interested to know where Dave has been played on da radio. I've been quite thrilled to hear the band on WVGO 106.5 in Richmond, but was even more enthused when I returned to have my roommate tell me he heard them on his station in Albany, NY. Now he knows that I'm not their only loony fan. Anyhow, type in and relate where and from what station you've heard DMB so we can get an idea of how much they're spreading out of our beloved VA. Jamie Cogbill "Could I have been any one other than me?"--another rare one! PS---could somebody supply me and the rest of the netters who are in the dark with info on how, why and when Pete Greiser left the band...I'm most curious. See ya.Top Permalink
hey bands come here there is never any advertising, so you always here about them the day, or week after. Jorma played here, and there was like nobody there due to there being no advertising, the same hapened for Merl Sounders.

recently received my copy of Remember Two Things (cool cover for the CD) and would really like to set up a trade with someone for some DMB shows. I have no DMB to trade, but have a fair amount of dead & phish + a few others (a really good copy of a GSW CD release party, and a good copy of a flecktones show). If anyone out there is interested I will gladly e-mail my list of shows. the 1-800 number for tickets, or just mail them to me. Thank you very much for your time.Top Permalink
I know a lot of dates have been jumbled around lately, so I must ask if the band will be in the New York/New England area any time soon? Please post or e-mail any info that you might have... thanks. P.S. Have a nice day. --Top Permalink
again. I was just thinking that I'd be interested to know where Dave has been played on da radio. I've been quite thrilled to hear the here's a funny story from the winter. i was just goofing off with 3 friends in little rock (on of whom is a fellow netter, aglide). aglide and i were talking about a sweet band we were really into -- the dave matthews band. then the third guy says, "oh yeah, i've heard of dave matthews. he's on the NO ALTERNATIVES CD." well, i didn't know much about NO ALTERNATIVES, but it seemed to have a popish-pseudo-alternative-doc-martin8-) type of feeling from the obnoxious ads i had seen posted around campus. "NO WAY!," responded aglide and myself. well, it took a 10-minute debate in which my friend insisted dave appears solo on the disc and aglide&i insisted we would know (from the net) if that were true..... so we trucked off to the recored store to check out the truth. the third friend was fairly undaunted when he picked up the NO ALTERNATIVES box and exclaimed "Matthew Sweet! yeah, didn't you guys say matthews is sweet?" oops. okay, while i'm here using up bandw. and telling dumb stories, i might as well impart some useful knowledge. many of you are already subscribed to the HORDEnet, and some of you would like to subscribe. the subscribing-instructions recently changed and i thought i should post them To subscribe to the mailing list, email MAJORDOMO@WORLD.STD.COM in the main body of the message. Leave the subject header blank. for those who don't know, HORDEnet is a non-digest emailing network for discussion of the music which the readers call the "Horizons of Rock," as per the HORDE tours. While the best DMB discussion takes place on MINERATSnet, there is some talk of DMB on the HORDEnet. and many other bands are discussed which might be of interest to YOU. so, that's my pitch for HORDEnet. email me if you have any questions. BTW, True Reflections is one of my favorite DMB songs, with Seek Up running a close second (and some other tunes.... it's pointless to list) but the downright invigorating. i listen to that song when i know i need some encouragement or some energy. love,danielTop Permalink
but I'll try anyway. I'd be really interested to know the circumstances surrounding Peter Greiser (the keyboardist) and when and why he left the band. I think he adds a lot to the music in various songs and I was just curious about if he has plans to ever come back. Thankya. Jamie Cogbill "Could I have been--lost somewhere in Minarets net?"Top Permalink
Personally I think Everything is pretty "cheesy." The lead singer might be a little entertaining bouncing and flailing around stage, but all the songs lack much talent and sound the same. Granted True Reflection isn't the best DMB song, but I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that the lyrics differ so much from typical Dave lyrics...(of course b/c they were written by Boyd)...so that makes it an easy song to criticize. And that's my two cents. Jamie CogbillTop Permalink
Thought I'd break the silence and tell peole who dont' know that From Good Homes has taken DMB's old Wednesday night spot at the Floodzone. I always thought they were similar to DMB in sound and style, but they're no substitute. Pretty bummed about the lack of Richmond dates on the new schedule, but it was expected.Top Permalink
Hello everyone. I am as you can see from the address usually up at Harvard but I'm in warm Atlanta right now. My friends and I just got back from Athens where we saw the two shows. First of all, it was nice to see the band again, which I hadn't done for a few months. Now on to the details . . . . Ants Marching Seek Up -- over twelve minutes long :-))) Satellite -- Boyd's funky intro! What Would You Say Tripping Billies Lover Lay Down #36 (a.k.a. Cris Harmony -- did y'all know that?) One Sweet World Minarets -- "Tomorrow Never Knows" quote Typical Situation The Song That Jane Likes -- a false ending (very cool) Jimi Thing -- Dave with a guitar solo! (nice octaves, btw) Granny Dancing Nancies Recently -- "Take Me to the River" and "This Bird Has Flown" quotes Warehouse One Sweet World The Song That Jane Likes Lie In Our Graves Two Step -- great version Tripping Billies Pay For What You Get -- "Should I Stay Or Should I Go" quote #36 -- different than Friday's version True Reflections Ants Marching -- none of that usual annoying intro Seek Up Minarets Typical Situation Dancing Nancies What Would You Say All Along The Watchtower Halloween -- new (I think) end jam which is pretty cool. Well, that's all folks. It was my first time in Athens and I'm glad as hell that I decided to forget school for the weekend and come down here. --Ben -----------------------And that's the truth, Ruth.---------------------------Top Permalink
Ben's post of the set lists whet my appetite for some '94 Dave so I thought I might as well ask if anyone out there happened to tape either of those Athens, Ga. shows Friday and Saturday. I have a lot to trade if anyone is in possession of those tapes. May there be more Northeast shows soon!! Listen to the JimiThing on 6/16/93 II at the FloodZone if you have not done it in a while... Eric Hesse Thank you!Top Permalink
Well people, my best friend who I went to the shows with got digital soundboards both nights. I will not get the tapes from him for a while but perhaps we could work something out where y'all would send me blanks and I'll make you second gen. analog copies (from the analogs he gives me). Please don't flood me with mail. I still have to work this out with him. Okay? BTW, when the hell are they coming back to the Northeast????? --Ben -----------------------And that's the truth, Ruth.---------------------------Top Permalink
Actually, the members of Everything are extremely talented, and can jam extremely hard. Personally I think Everything is pretty "cheesy." The lead singer might be a little entertaining bouncing and flailing around stage, but all the songs lack much talent and sound the same. The lead singer isn't entertaining at all, and the songs don't all sound the same. Have you only heard them once? ****There ain't no time to stash the gumbo, or rattle around in a cage****Top Permalink
Not to sound negative, but I have to agree that the words to True Reflections are among the worst lyrics in terms of the Cheez-O-Meter that any band has ever set to music. It's not just a cheezy DMB song...it's a cheezy song in the scope of all music. No offense, Boyd, but they don't leave many levels of Yeah, yeah, amend my situation and my whole life is ahead of me...DUMB! I wrote poetry like this in second grade. Amid Dave's fantastic lyrics True Reflections is always a let down for me. Now, I know this won't be too welcomed by most of you, but I'm gonna say it anyway. I don't think that Boyd is the god that everyone (shows and here on the net) makes him out to be. He's a good player and he's what you first notice about the band, but his solos can get REAL repetitive (I mean the ones that are so "jamming" and "intense") Often they are one or two notes played really fast followed by a descending scale really fast and then an ascending scale really fast etc... Personally, I like Boyd in Minarets and the more exploratory pieces. Or how about 11/2/92 if anyone has that. The Warehouse is phenomenal. Boyd and LeRoi (who I think is far underrated) split it wide open and jam for a looooong time. I like to refer to Boyd's somewhat self-indulgent crowd-pleaser solos as "losing his hat" as anyone who has seen him do one will understand. Don't get me wrong. DMB wouldn't be DMB without Boyd, but for some reason (and I think a bad reason), he often overshadows LeRoi and Stephan who are outstanding players. Watch and focus on the bass next time you're at a show. It'll suprise you. LOVE! BABY! (I don't know why I don't know why I'm singing) LOVE! BABY! If you watch Boyd on this part of Granny, he looks like he's really into the "Love, baby" singing as the punch of the song. Boyd just has a more poppy direction in music (i.e. A big cheer from the crowd is often better than a long exploratory jam) which is fine. I'm just glad that Roi is there to explore. And anyone who doesn't think that Granny is a big joke on pop music should pay more attention to that Davetalk in the lyrics. That's all for now.

He's a good player and he's what you first I SECOND IT!!!! Sorry y'all, but Boyd really isn't all that great. The few times I've met him he's been just the nicest guy so I hate saying it but what he does is USE STAGE PRESENCE. Please, after you've had a few beers, anyone who gets up on stage and moves around like he does is bound to get lots of cheers and "Boyd, you the man," which is what some idiot was screaming into my ear all Saturday night (he at least apologized for falling on me). Don't get me wrong. DMB wouldn't be DMB without Boyd, but for some reason (and I think a bad reason), he often overshadows LeRoi and Stephan who are outstanding players. Watch and focus on the bass next time you're at a show. It'll suprise you. Of course the band would be fundamentally different. But LeRoi is phenomenal-- it seems to me he's getting muich better and that he's been getting more playing time lately. Stephan also rocks. But they just stand there, which must be a personality thing. So if you're not always tuned into the MUSIC, you think they aren't that great. But you'd be wrong. exploratory jam) which is fine.

picked this up off Horde.Net. thought it might be interesting. alex crothers ------------------------------------ For anyone interested, Allgood will be putting out a live EP around May, and hopefully a new studio album sometime soon after that. Talking with Charlie and Clay, they feel that the studio stuff doesn't really do their sound justice, thus the live EP. Oh yeah, and they said "Trilogy" would be on there, with a guest appearance on the violin by Boyd Tinsley(?) of the Dave Matthews Band.Top Permalink
I'll have to seriously disagree with anyone who happens to say that Boyd detracts from the DMB. I've often thought that DMB wouldn't have close the following to what it does have now if it weren't for the spirit and intensity of Boyd Tinsley. Boyd is usually the first thing that people notice about DMB and many people who I've encountered are just not fans of the music until they actually see a show...I think this can be attributed to Boyd's intensity which comes across even more in person. In many versions of Seek Up it is the fiddle which provides the entire powerful mood of the song. Anyhow, that's my two cents. Let's hear the other Boyd supporters out there in minarets land speak up! Jamie Cogbilllspeak ups'own cowerfupwermooti The fiddle on .a rtt'ae aht GTop Permalink

I recently received a tape from a friend that is a mystery to me. On side A is a recording of Dave solo in what sounds like a studio, but I am not sure. On side B is a recording of part of the 1992-93 New Years show. The Cry, Tripping Billies, The Song that Jane, I'll Back Up, What Would You Say, Satellite-(After Her), Lover Lay Down, One Sweet World, Typical Sit. SideB-True Reflections, Ants, Two Step, Jimi Thing. The strange thing about the acoustic side(A), is that you hear a background singer on Best of What's Around but that is it, I assume it is not Tim Reynolds, because there is no other guitar. The Satellite-After her is strange because I have never heard it before, it has totally different lyrics, (with the more common ones thrown in at times) and is faster. It is a great tape can anyone identify it? I would love to trade it I asssume it is a rare tape.Top Permalink
i never really saw anything that said that boyd detracts from the band, more that he just overshadows leroi and stefan. and as for saying "listen to seek up," that's what gregg was trying to say. listen to seek up, minarets, and (the now defunct) blue water, and you'll get a true meaning of what dmb is all about and how they relate to the growing trend of musicians who are playing music for panic) every blue water i've ever heard has had a tremendously different interpretation by boyd (though none can top 11-17-92), but go and listen to _any_ ants marching, tripping billies, or other songs where boyd is dancing around on stage with the big cheez grin on his face, and try to find any difference. i'd even point out that _nobody_ goes exploring on these songs, but it's boyd who really stands out as not exploring. as the rest of the band sits back and plays a ditto of the version from the night before, they always look to boyd. name the five songs which you think give the entire band the most room to explore their creative diversity.

okay... action for boyd other than singing, i can't forget this song. it's got the best mood. two step because whenever i want to sing or jump around, this is a great song to do it to. minarets is best on the above version(my personal opinion). the whole band loses control like you'd never imagine. i can't capture the intensity of this song with words. spotlight, i've only heard live over the summer at flood zone. but i remember the first time they played it (*twice the same night). i was awestruck and i haven't heard it since summer, but i can remember being blown away and singing 'big city, black city rising up around me...' (or something like that) for about a week there after. i just like dancing nancy. the band usually goes nuts on this one just like on minarets. i like the 'turn turn we almost become dizzy' part. my two cents... -clare emily 'contrariwise,' continued tweedledee,' if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. that's logic.'Top Permalink

After X-mas song on my Remember 2 things CD there's about 2 minutes worth of stuff like a snippet from some really nice sounding jam (seek up?) and some thunderstorm noises, etc. Do all the CD's have this? Does anyone know why they're there? Marco esKWONdolasTop Permalink
no doubt the jam at the end is seek up (i wish they had put it in the main of the song) i think they put that stuff on there so they could sell it as a full 60 minute disc 'cause it is just barley over an hour oh well so it goes so the story goes... edTop Permalink
I would imagine the jam was cut out in order to make the song more marketable to the radio...although I've never heard Seek Up on the radio. I'm still interested to know whose heard what on the radio and where. I also still want to know about Peter Greiser. Anyone? Anyone? Jamie CogbillTop Permalink

hey y'all, hope this isn't the first grovel of the new year. . .i am looking for good copies of either of the shows from a month or two ago with tim r. and the whole band, plus copies of one of the summer shows with greg howard sitting in, due to stephan's busted hand. i have around 40 hours of good dmb to trade, plus some good phish, if anyone is interested. thanks, daveTop Permalink

here in Gainesville, the sound man played Remember Two Things between acts. I was going nuts, telling my friends (who were like yeah whatever, settle down) about them. So I go to the restroom, and who do I see above the john but a picture of the band watching me pee with a sign saying "RCA recording artists The Dave Matthews Band, Tues. Mar.1." I zip up a little too quickly in my excitement and run out and tell my friends, who are moderately interested now, probably because I've got a nice sized dribble on my shorts.

First, sorry about my last post--it wasn't meant to be sent to the net. you wouldn't be wasting your time on the computer talking about his band; obviously he is doing something right. Is anyone going to be at Trax? Also, I heard they were playing at Sweetbriar on the 25th. True? A few shows I'm looking for. (sorry.) Have plenty to trade... September '92--Trax unsure of the date, though probably around the 15th; with Miguel on percussion; This show opens with 2 or 3 solo songs, possibly, but not definitely Pay For, Lie In and Best. (Not that this helps to identify the show, but Ugly Kidd Joe played the night before.) Nov or Dec '92--Max (next door to Trax) This was an opener for Weir/Wasserman (with Bob Weir witnessing one of the best Two Steps ever. BTW, what do people think about post-Peter Two Steps?) August 14th(?) 93--The Bayou; ends with Sattelite--Halloween (w/ everyone) itself causes violence)Top Permalink
Hill or next Wesnesday with Widespread. I would love to meet up with anyone from the net. I will be wearing a red Mount Gay Rum hat. Hope to see you there.Top Permalink
Lexington, VA april 20 Winston-Salem april 21 It was only last night when I said how cool it would be when the two best bands in the world play together. This show should change the way DMB thinks about music; though they jam every once in a while, this will show them how to tear a song wide open (which will never happen until Stefan learns to play Mike Gordon/Phil Lesh style.) Also, (yet another grovel), does anybody have 11-23-93 (the Trax show just before Thanksgiving)? This show has the only Granny that ever kicked ass, the only time the band has ever attempted space (Recently), AND the infamous "Moo-shi Minarets" (if you've never heard a Moo-shi Minarets, your life is unfulfilled. Even if you've heard one (and chances are you have), unless you realized that it was a moo-shi minarets your life is still unfulfilled.) itself causes violence)Top Permalink

I called the 1800 number tonight and it's confirmed, Phish and DMB are playing in Lexington at the Va. Horse Center on 4.20. The girl on da phone said that they didn't have tickets or price info, but, man, how friggin amazing! I lived in lexington for 18 years and noone has EVER played at the Horse Center. How bizarre, I imagine that it has something to do with Washington and Lee, but I haven't seen that anywhere. It is just really strange. Anyway, I'll definately see you there. GrahamTop Permalink
If I'm correct, Dave is playing in Missouri this upcoming weekend, right? If anyone knows about the venue (showtime, age restrictions, security, directions, etc) I'd love it if you could tell me about it. We're getting ansy for a road trip this weekend, and why not go see dave? --WillTop Permalink
i most certainly am hoping to get a tape of that phish stuff too bad i'll be overseas (not really too bad at all) anyhow i don't think Stephan needs to change his style at all, much less IN ORDER TO allow the band to jam not at all, i love the changes the band does, stephan and carter are really tight even their stuff from 92 i thought had really cool changes furthurmore who's to say they have any interest in becoming a phish like band, or will change after jamming with them but whatever, i totally groove on phish no doubt drew knows and remembers two things noah had anyhow the show will not be one to miss hopefully it won't be a dinky little DMB plays for 30 minutes deal like it ws in chicago w/the Samples but it shouldn't be. word one last thing, does anyone have the DMB jamming w/Darrel Rose? i'd love to work out a trade with someone "But remember the echo we know so well is shared by everyone everywhere..."

I check into the Drury College show in Springfield, MO and it turns out that the show is part of the Drury Homecoming. My friend Fro told me that it would be tough to get in and if we did, it would be hard to remain inconspicous while everyone else is dressed formally. The show is not being held on campus. I decided not be worth it to travel 3 hours and get rejected (even if it I did miss my first opportunity to see DMB.) :-( MilesTop Permalink

been so damn busy with school or taping shit. BTW, speaking of taping, i just taped a crispy DSBD of Shockra w/ Jon reading poetry for part of it and last night at a little bar here in Burlington i ran sound and taped a band with Jon on drums. and to top it all off, for the last song he played guitar. i thought it was kinda cool at least. anyway, those are my excuses for neglecting minarets.net lately. apologize now. i want to clear up/elaborate on the Phish/DMB thing. i talked with the home office yesterday and got the new dates (which, bTW are incredible. their schedule is Hectic but, good news, DMB is coming back to the NE!!! it's only a couple of shows but that's better than nothing. the dates are back at my house and when i go home tonight i'll send them out--so look for them around 8:00 or 9:00). Here's how the is also a concert promoter. makes sense. he knew Phish had some open dates and contacted them about playing around that area. Phish said that should be fun. unfortunately i can't make it but i'm sure my brother will be there taking pictures since he lives about three minutes from the horse center and DMB and Phish are among his favorite bands. to do with Washington and Lee, but I haven't seen that anywhere. It is i don't believe it has anything to do with W&L, but then again i could be wrong. hoept his wasn't just idle rambling alex crothersTop Permalink

Hi everyone...I haven't posted in a while and I'm sure alot of you are starved for 1994 DMB, so I'll post the setlist from last weeks W-S show...besides I'm going to grovel for something at the end of this and need some ODMBC... Set 1 1 h 3 m Seek Up (well jammed as usual, 13+ minutes) Song that Jane likes (no intro) Tripping Billies Satellite (they've been doing this one SLOOOOWWW...) Help Myself (totally SICK!) What would you say? #36 (Dave scat sings to Boyd's pizzicato...you've gotta hear it..amazing) Warehouse Set 2 1 h 20 m Jimi Thing (good jam, Dave attempts guitar solo) Minarets (Carter raps an old Beastie Boys rhyme during Dave's "chick-chicka" Typical Situation (beautiful!) Two Step (one of the better ones since the keyboard days...) Granny Watchtower (Leroi assualts the audiance with the craziest solo I've heard Lover Lay Down (funkier than usaul) Ants Marchings For those of you that couldn't make the show because of the weather (snow, ice, yuch!) Try to catch them somewhere soon...it's one of the strongest that I've seen them do in awhile. Carter is playing CRAZY and LeRoi is doing some truly inspired solos. Can't wait for the shows this week!! Oh yeah..people in W-S yell out for Ants marching instead of Halloween and Two Step..it was weird, I guess they didn't get to hear it twice a week for 3 months. Ok, here's the GROVEL...I was planning on going to Trax on Tuesday, but have now found out that it's SOLD OUT?!? What the hell? Welp, I need 1 ticket and would gladly be your best friend forever in addition to running tapes of any shows from this week you'd like...I'm taping 22nd, 23rd (with WSP!) 24th and 26th...somebodys just GOTTA have an extra...please, please please...Also, I'll be glad to give anyone a ride to the show. I'm going through Williamsburg and Richmond. Free ride, drink as much as you'd like and I'll drop you on the doorstep when the show is over... Sorry for the wasted bandwidth..everyone have a good week.Top Permalink

whether or not this is implying that it was a bad guitar solo, but the two guitar solos I have on tape happen to be excellent (both are on Jimi Thing; 1-19-93 and 12-31-93).

He should try it more often. Yeah..I was implying that it wasn't his best...I've got several that are GREAT (1/19/93 IS awesome!) but this one was kind of weak...But the interplay between Roi and Boyd was amazing...It's almost as if Dave starts the solo and realizes that Roi and Boyd are starting to get off, so he lets them have the jam. Don't get me wrong...it's a top ten Jimi Thing. Just has a truncated solo... ..Praying for (but not yelling for) Halloween tomorrow night. me too...maybe if we all put our collective thought together and focus Dave will throw down a slamming version. Ok...at 12:47 am Wednesday morning, EVERYONE think "groovin Halloween"...and Carter funks it up the backbeat... have a kind week everyone.Top Permalink
Good afternoon Minarets land, I got the chance last night to see Derryberry & Alagia (John Alagia--the DMB producer), and it was a very enjoyable experience. One of the truly interesting things was that they played about three DMB cover songs! It was great because it was the first time I heard a band do a DMB cover...they played "So Much to Say," "Satellite," and something else that I seem to forget right now. I went to the show w/ Christopher Sabec (DMB lawyer and fellow fan) and so with him I was able to chew the fat some with John about DMB. One thing interesting is their plans for a six song promo Cd due for release some time next month! Also I'm going to the Birchmere show w/ Dave and Tim tonight w/ C. Sabec and was wondering if any other netters would be there...should be fun! Vaya con Dios! Jamie CogbillTop Permalink

taping? possible at the bayou? or too small? thanks. numbered songs phenomenon? i think it's really cool (and i can identify with the difficulty in naming songs -- in fact, before i was into dmb, i would write lyrics randomly and started naming them up from 31 for some terribly coincidental reason). anyone heard any from the 20s, teens, or single digits? which does the band play besides 34 and 36? reidTop Permalink
I'm sending this message/request as a service to a friend who will be out in Colo. skiing for Spring Break and really wants too see Dave play in Breck (he's going thru serious withdrawal as he hasn't seen the band since NYE). Anyway, the problem is he'll be in Steamboat without a car. So if there's anyone planning on being in Steamboat at that time and roadtripping to see the band in Breck (probably 2 hr+ drive) then e'd love a ride. He has offered to pay for gas, buy you drinks, and do just about anything for a ride. Oh, the show is Mar. 12 at Breckinridge. If this might apply to anyone, then e-mail me direct. If not, sorry to waste bandwidth. Bob P.S. Talked to Coran the other day. He says the Virginia Horse Center in Lexington is "cool as shit" and there will be camping :) Can't wait!Top Permalink
OH wow! It sure was a great show tonight, Dave and Tim at their utmost best. I met Wayland and Kwon there tonight...my first real outside contact w/ other netters. Wayland is posting the set list so I won't spend time on that here. About the show...(my two cents)...So Much to Say, with Tim using the slide and Dave as animated as ever was awesome, the encore of Angel then Watchtower was tremendous. The Birchmere was really neato...everyone sat at tables, but were just as enthused as most shows I've seen. producer of the Counting Crows cd who was there to hear Dave. Talked to John Alagia and Doug Derryberry some...and after the show Christopher Sabec was going to drive me back to my Gtown home but first we got to drop Dave and an RCA guy named Bruce off at the Marriot. It was so cool being in the car w/ Dave...the guy is hilarious...actually damn near obnoxious, he was talking with this Brooklyn mafia accent about...well, I'll let you use your imagination. both of us. whew. sorry, I rambled. Jamie Cogbill PS--tix for the BAyou are $10 w/o service charge...yes it is 18+, yes get there early for your tix.Top Permalink
Hello fellow netters! Just got back from the Dave and tim show at the Birchmere in Alexandria,Va. He is a quick review of a mellow but intense show... Set 1 ****** Pay for what you get Lie in our graves So Much to Say Satellite Recently (jammin tim solo) You are my sanity (Tim song) Warehouse Typical Situation (Tim jam) Help Myself Set 2 ***** T-Bone Burnette and Tim jammed to a T-Bone song Minarets Tripping Billies I'll Back you Up (gripping) Dancing Nancy Tim Song Cry Freedom (wow! surprise! one hell of a song) Ants Marching One Sweet World Christmas Song The show was great, during the show someone joked around and screamed "Halloween" dave said he would play it Tuesday and saturday night! Also has anyone heard of T-Bone Burnette(jams on guitar)? he is producer for RCA out of Los Angelas? Well, it was good to meet Jamie and Quan, hope to see some of you all this week, look for me taping. WaylandTop Permalink
If any of you out there know Dave personally or any of his management staff There is a great bar here in Columbia, Mo. called the Blue Note and play there (or maybe it's just me). Could someone please pass this information along. Also, the address is : 17 North 9th Street It is a 800-1000 person venue. I'm sure that they would be very interested in booking he and the boyz. I realize that they are coming to Kansas (DEFINITE road trip), but I would LOVE to see them on "home turf". Please let me know if they express any interest in playing here...it would make my day. By the by, the town of Columbia has three college campuses in it. Mizzou is roughly 25000 large. Great place to get some exposure! Thanks, Dave Culp (C526208@MIZZOU1.MISSOURI.EDU) PS- sorry to all of you that this doesn't effect.Top Permalink
i talked to chris tetselli of red light management this morning, and he said the only thing available right now is a four song ep entitled 'recenlty' with an edited-for-radio title song, as well as ants, tripping billies, and song that jane likes. it's a radio promo, and only available as such. the big thing coming up, however, is a cd5 which will include some songs that didn't make the album cut (i'm assuming they are also live and recorded at the same show) and will include some dave matthews/ tim reynolds cuts, as well. they haven't fully figured out what's up with this thing, yet, so i couldn't get a full track listing. this cd5 will be available only through mail order or at shows. i'll let everyone know more as it becomes available. ====================================================================== rick thompson stu_rcthomps@vax1.acs.jmu.edu jmu box 5388 willing to tell you anything you harrisonburg va 22807 ever wanted to know about the dave (703) 568-4945 disjunct lyrics). ********************************************************************** "It is indeed a great gift of heaven to possess...plain common sense." ======================================================================Top Permalink
Actually, T-Bone is not with RCA...he is famous in his own right. He is the husband of Sam Phillips ( a talented singer-songwriter) and an acclaimed record producer. T-Bone's latest accomplishment is the Counting Crows CD. He also did a number of Elvis Costello and ZZ-Top albums. I will try to post T-Bone's entire discography for everyone's information. Also, the name of the tune he played with Tim Reynolds is called "Humans from Earth." The reason T-Bone was at the Birchmere is that he is considering producing and DMB management is considering having him produce the RCA release (it is a MUTUAL decision). So far, so good. Dave and T-Bone really got along well. Tonight, T-Bone will meet the band at Trax and we'll have to wait and see where things go from here. Later, ChristopherTop Permalink

Good afternoon Minarets land, I got the chance last night to see Derryberry & Alagia (John Alagia--the DMB producer), and it was a very enjoyable experience. anyone remember when I posted asking for info about these guys. I told this long story about how they were supposedly from the DC area . . . . One of the truly interesting things was that they played about three DMB cover songs! It was great because it was the first time I heard a band do a DMB cover...they played "So Much to Say," "Satellite," and something else that I seem to forget right now. I went to the show w/ Christopher Sabec (DMB lawyer and fellow fan) and so with him I was able to chew the fat some with John about DMB. One thing interesting is their plans for a six song promo Cd due for release some time next month! hear the reverse. I mean, what if Dave and the guys did a song or two of John/Doug's? Now, 99% of you have never heard D&A, so this is sort of dumb to write, but how about "How To Love You," or "Wish You Well," or many others which the DMB could totally RIP. Ah, here's to hoping. Also I'm going to the Birchmere show w/ Dave and Tim tonight w/ C. Sabec and was wondering if any other netters would be there...should be fun! Vaya con Dios! Jamie Cogbill Well, now for some ODMBC (hee hee!): The last time I checked Ticketmaster, they said a band called Quicksand was playing at Irving Plaza NYC on March 26. What gives? --Ben ----Let's get down to the nitty-gritty, Let's get the show on the road.----Top Permalink
