STU_RCTHOMPS@VAX1.ACS.JMU.EDU Wed May 4 15:26:05 1994
Again, I wasn't trying to compare the two bands! The 2 bands were
jamming and playing nothing and Leroi saved the day by giving them
something to play.
G
actually, they were playing yem, and pretty well, imho. personally
i felt like it was the second worse yem i've ever heard (horde being
the worst) and that leroi actually detracted from it by sending them
on a whacked out tangent. emphasis on "personally." i realize that
a lot of people really gizzed out, but i thought it was stupid.
freind of a freind of mine at uva. i don't know what it means, and
neither does he. he was stoned at the time, and wound up labeling
dancing nancies as "turtles, turtles, turtles, and more turtles."
any way you look at it, it is such a strange name that it's good for
a laugh when your bored, and it's what i'll always call it.

words to watchtower (not here, though)
STU_RCTHOMPS@VAX1.ACS.JMU.EDU Wed May 4 15:29:22 1994
seeing as the innumberable versions on the market, this song should
be pretty easy to find. i'll go look for it in cyberspace, and if i
find it, i'll post it.

dancing nancies as "turtles, turtles, turtles, and more turtles."
I STILL haven't figured this one out...Heathcliff's Haiku Warriors fits
that song well though. But I had it labelled as So Happy...so maybe
Jeff or someone else I asked told me that. Or maybe I made it up. Who
knows.
Good luck on exams party people...peace, be safe.

watchtower
dee3s@uva.pcmail.virginia.edu Wed May 4 17:33:10 1994
The watchtower that dmb does is musically different than those
done previously so that by "finding it in any guitar book" (or
something), you're not finding the actual tab. If anyone
actually has this they should post it or send it to Shawn Peters
to be added to the tab file (and to me!). Thanks.

Finally Got The CDs
nebuious@aol.com Wed May 4 19:05:15 1994
Well, the 2 CDs finally arrived, and I have to say they sound really good,
even Recently, if only for those utterly psychopathic sounds Leroi gets out
of his sax during his solo during "Watchtower"
Overall, though, it sounds a bit like Dave has a COLD when he's singing on
CD. I can't explain it, but it's twice as noticable on the studio tracks.
he sounds congested.
Anyway, take away the ease of use on CDs, and I honestly prefer tapes over
CDs, but CDs are always a good thing to have songs on, as they obviously have
superior sound quality over audio tapes.
During the process of taking off that really tight covering on my Recently
CD, I broke off one of the edges that holds the plastic that holds the
booklet onto the CD case. If anyone knows how to fix it, send me song mail.
:)

watchtower tab
STU_RCTHOMPS@VAX1.ACS.JMU.EDU Thu May 5 10:03:30 1994
as far as watchtower goes, using the first song book you find prolly
would work. the only parts you need worry about that you won't find
which opens the song.
for those of you who don't know the chord progression, it's
Am G F (G)
most versions jump back up to the g in parantheses, but dave usually
holds it at f.
Am G F C/? 3
where c is slid up to ?, and ? is that 5 chord that anyone playing more
than two years starts using gratuitously all over the place. (actually
it's just a really fast chord change.)
obviously this doesn't account for any rhythm patterns, but they should
be pretty easy to pick out.

WTJU show yesterday!!!
gsp2m@uva.pcmail.virginia.edu Thu May 5 10:09:18 1994
Tim Show" as part of their annual folk marathon. Apparently, the idea was to
turn the station over to Dave and Tim for three hours late at night and let
them play or do whatever they wanted. They played a lot of music that had
influenced them in the past and music that they currently enjoyed listening
to. However, the majority of the broadcast was filled with Dave and Tim
playing together in the booth. I found out about the show and was able to
pop a tape in without losing more than a minute at the start of the show. As
it turns out, I missed the last 30-40 minutes too, but that's another
story...
station, it was now. Since I was tired of studying for finals, I headed over
to the station to pay the money instead of phoning it in. When I got to the
station, there was no one around in the offices. I knew that there had to be
somebody about, but I didn't want to just walk in. As I stood there trying
to decide what to do, a door opened behind me and Tim invited me in. As it
turns out, all four of the people still at the station had all been in the
booth. After paying my pledge, the woman working there indicated that I
could stay and listen if I wanted. So, for the next two hours, I was able to
sit and listen to Dave and Tim play a few feet away. They seemed to be
having a great time and enjoyed being incompetent with regards to the
equipment. Tim's rantings were especially amusing, with the highlight being
his 10 minute attempt at a public service announcement. It was really a
relaxed and funny atmosphere.
tapes yet and I don't remember the list from memory. I'll post it in the
next few days if anyone is interested. From what I remember, they played
"Best of What's Around", "Recently", "Cry Freedom" (got to request this one),
"Two Step", "Song that Jane Likes", "Dancing Nancies", "Help Myself" (again,
requested), and they closed it up with "Minarets." Tim also played "You Are
My Sanity" and maybe one other. Together, they did a couple of improv bits
over Tim's playing. There you go, sorry for being so long winded...

came from so it's not much of a concern...).

Here are the Watchtower lyrics...
nebuious@aol.com Thu May 5 19:16:23 1994
These are taken from the lyrics given in the Jimi Hendrix guitar
transcription book of "Electric Ladyland"
Dave sings the last few verses twice or so (I think).
------------------------
All Along The Watchtower
------------------------
There must be some kind of way out of here
said the joker to the thief.
Too much confusion
I can't get no relief.
Business men they drink my wine
Plow men dig my earth
None will level on the vine
nobody of it is worth.
No reason to get excited
the thief he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I we've been through that
And this is not our fate.
So let us not talk falsely now
the hour is getting late.
All along the watchtower
princes kept the view.
While all the women came and went
bare feet servants too.
Well outside in the cold distance
a wild cat did growl
Two riders were approaching
the wind began to howl.
Ben

tossing verses of other songs into his own, ie Should I Stay or Should I
Go (Clash) into Pay for What You Get, Dancin in the Streets into
Recently, and Tommorow Never Knows (Beatles) into the beginning of
Minarets. Another brainspasm....maybe Dave should revive the Sweet Home
Alabama into Ants Marching from earlier last summer, makes a crowd go
crazy, and makes me laugh out loud......Freebird perhaps???

before anymore JMU students write me asking how to unsubscribe themselve
year sometime so listproc doesn't recognize your new address and
therefore doesn't think you're subscribed when you try to unsubscribe
from that address.
your old address was jmuvax.bitnet and your new address is
vax1.acs.jmu.edu so when you write listproc to unsubcribe you from
your new address it thinks you're not subscribed.
i'd suggest resubscribing under your new address. if listproc doesn't
send you two copies of every post then everything should be fine and you
all can unsubscribe without having me do everyone of you manually
this may have happened with some other nodes too so be aware of it if you
try to unsubscribe and listproc says you aren't subscribed.

Re: last Angel
bobgee@merle.acns.nwu.edu Sat May 7 20:00:24 1994
Well, I know Angel From Montgomery was played on April 22 at Denison
University in Ohio, as I was there. It was one of the best Angels I have heard
-- Boyd sounded good and was doing some extra violin soloing. LeRoi was
motioning to Dave and Boyd to hurry and finish the song so they could get in
the rest of their setlist before curfew (12:30) Angel is always a treat to
hear, and has become somehwat rare, but hasn't disappeared from the rotation
all together, like Spotlight, The Maker, Drive in Drive out, Exodus (although
I think I remember seeing this on a setlist from Memphis? recently).
Anyway, Angel is a John Prine song that Bonnie Rait sings too.

nebuious@aol.com Sat May 7 22:28:19 1994
I've been listening to Recently non-stop, and can't see where many of you say
that it doesn't seem to fit well.
To me, if you take out the stupidity of the extremely cut "Recently", it's a
very good CD.
Starts with two acoustic songs, then goes into "Wachtower", which starts
REALLY light, gets REAL heavy, and then into the last song, "Halloween", one
of DMBs heaviest and most emotional songs.
To my twisted mind, it makes perfect sense.
Any thoughts of my rekindling this old topic?

twistedness....
nothing else. right? i also love nancies and warehouse as acoustic. not
that i don't like them full band or anything, but it's certainly a
sweetening change. i've got a nice two-step acoustic, and it's calming and
more fun to sing to.
tech. at midnight during exams, all the students go outside, or hang out
their windows, and blare music, flash strobe lights, and scream for about
thirty minutes straight. nice little stress reliever. last semester, a
few people wrapped themselves in saran-wrap and ran around the quad. very
interesting... especially since it was december...

exodus
Daniel_Gold@Brown.edu Sun May 8 03:23:16 1994
hear, and has become somehwat rare, but hasn't disappeared from the rotation
all together, like Spotlight, The Maker, Drive in Drive out, Exodus (although
I think I remember seeing this on a setlist from Memphis? recently).
right,they played Exodus in Memphis 3/31/94, second set, a few days after
the IP show. it was excellent. a much more spirited performance and song
selection than the IP show (i saw both).

What is the Tomorrow Never Knows intro to Minarets?
I swear one time I was at Trax sometime early in this school year, and
Dave sang some lyrics of Tommorow Never Knows at the very beginning of
the song. The only way I recognize it is the Dead covered it at RFK this
past summer. Dave still sings words in the same place now, but I swear
this one time they were Beatles lyrics, maybe I'm wrong, who knows, it
sounded real good though.....

Angel played May 2
shooper@liberty.uc.wlu.edu Sun May 8 16:25:28 1994
As far as I know, the last time the band played Angel from Montgomery was
on May 2 in Knoxville at the Bijou. It was nice to hear it live for a
change but the crowd seemed only to know "Remember Two Things" and a few
knew "Recently." I don't think the setlist has been published and I'm
sorry to say that I didn't write it down. But I can tell you that the
first set was nearly all from Remember Two things except maybe for Best
and Help Myself. The second set however was much better mainly because
Dave began taking requests from the crowd. A few songs into the set he
reminded everyone that this was his last east coast show before going
into the studio and he wanted to know what everyone wanted to hear. He
made some suggestions (One Sweet World, Halloween, Watchtower, Jimi
Thing, Christmas Song, What would You Say). From these he played OSW,
Watchtower, and Christmas song. Overall the show was pretty good; the
second set definetly made up for the first. If anyone has or can get a
tape to the show, I'd be interested in a trade.
Thanks,
Sandy

Re: poi dog pondering
jrs@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu Sun May 8 22:33:41 1994
howdy y'all,
sorry for responding to this so late, but my net access is very limited
these days. thanks, cindy, for clearing some things up. i'll keep this
short, but i just wanted to clarify some things in case anyone cares. (i
know there are some rusted root fans on here, and rr is considered
very 'poi-ish.')
- poi dog pondering originated in honolulu. they ventured to the
mainland, eventually settled in austin, shifted members and eventually
got a record deal. 3 full-length albums were released while they were
based in texas, but their sound was still very much hawaiian-influenced.
frank orrall is hawaiian and i think ted cho, who played mandolin and
guitar, was, too.
- about a year and a half ago or so, poi moved up to chicago because it
served them better musically and because frank fell in love with brigid
murphy. several members opted not to make the move. the band now features
lots of chicago-based musicians. there will always be hawaiian influences
because that is a very big part of who frank is. (just takes a quick
glance at his lyrics to see that.) but the band has a funky, semi-jazzy
flare as well. brigid joined the band as a sax player - she's an integral
part of the setup now, and not just a tagalong significant other.
- very recently poi started their first tour in well over a year, but
after a few weeks, brigid's cancer relapsed and frank called off the tour.
if anyone has any questions about poi dog, drop me a line. if i can't
answer it, i know people who can. write me at aq876@Freenet.HSC.Colorado.EDU.
i wish more people had gotten to see this tour. i saw their two homecoming
shows here in austin and i still get chills and think their live sets are
akin to spiritual transformations. :)

Recently...
WIFOY@apollo.davidson.edu Tue May 10 14:31:20 1994
Hi folks out there! I'm a relatively new DMB fan. I first heard of them
when I heard them at a concert for all the fraternities and eating houses
here on campus at Davidson College last fall. I have absolutely no
recordings of them save for Remember and I just got Recently yesterday and I
must say regardless of the criticisms of the edit #2 of the title track, it's
still a great effort, IMHO. It may all boil down to the simple truth that we
like what we first hear. When I buy an album, I invariably always like the
first track evne if I hate the rest of it[but then I wouldn't buy it]. record
companies know this and put the better of several "good"/"great" tracks at
the beginning to capitalize on this. The point here being that you like the
first bit you hear usually.
I never knew that All Along .. could be *that* special! If anyone [besides
you, Greenfling] has recordings of *any* shows that you think a new fan
should have, or know of anywhere to get cd recordings[as I am a POOR college
student with no DAT to play with] of DMB stuff, like specific record shows,
etc. then email me before the 18th or send snail mail to Will Foy PO Box 2151
Davidson NC 28036 and we'll talk about getting you some blanks etc, as I
again have little to trade.
In a non-DMB note, do any of you guys like everything? I see no mention of
everything which is a really good DC based band and I'm surprised that the
fanbase from the VA area has never talked about them...Any boots there? I do
have a boot from the soundboard from Davidson's PiKA show '93,but it's a 2nd
or 3rd gen. analog, so the quality is good if you turn your stereo WAY up.
Now that I've rambled enough, I'll shut up and let you fine folks go back to
your business. Good luck on exams for all you fellow crazy college kids!
Indebted, in your debt, and just plain *in debt*, Will
[Send me snail mail about tapes please! Help a new boot collector out!]

pretty decent. I have a few diehard friends who love them, but as of yet,
they have not caught on for me. Their and Boy O Boy's horn section had a
stellar performance with Dave at the Lake Matoaka show in a huge Recently
jam that ended a fine, but cut short performance. They have a funny
mailer with the most random stuff on it and the Superfly Merchandise
ordering form, but I don't have the address on hand. Their disc is pretty
good, (I forgot the name). I am plannin in my un-so-ample time to get a
tape of their performance (along with dave's) from Matoaka, but I have a
few busy weeks left in school and my trader (Blake from the net) is
nowhere to be found. Thats my 2 cents on a pretty good band...contact me
if your interest in the tapes, but who knows when I'll get them, I'll
have e-mail access till about June 1....

and in other news....
Since I started this everything thread, I'll post what little I know.
1) See them live! Their disc is great, but it compares to them little when
their music is heard live! It's the same with DMB!
2) The current disc is "sol [bullet] id" and the cover features the familiar
while the bottom is the symbol for the "Tao" or that which cannot be spoken.
The cover art is cool.
3) They are currently working on a new studio/live album and have great new
material.
oriented band. They want you to "Jump!" during "Soulfish" their capstone
song, and to groove with every beat. They switch lead singers a lot and the
only guy I can't recall ever singing is the keyboard/trombone player, as all
of them play at least two instruments. The guitarist plays some mean fills
and the drummer is first rate[although Neil Peart he is not! :)]. Boots
abound! I have a poor quality boot of the spring '93 show here at
PiKA[groan :)] and will be seeing them next week when they come to Ziggy's
in Winston-Salem[my hometown, home of Don Dixon, Let's Active, Mitch Easter
and the Drive-In as well as such terrible corporate moguls as RJR tobacco].
Also some other cool HORDE bands will be/have/are playing this summer.
Leftover Salmon is playing sometime next month and Cracker and Counting Crows
have played earlier this term. The boot policy is random, really depends on
beach club dates this summer so while you're out baking your body and getting
skin cancer, go see them while your back recovers from the terrible burn you
got that night.
Guitar = 5 guys plus extras if they add to them. Keyboardist plays trombone
as well as some other stuff. Lead singer plays a little drum and guitar and
trumpet. Percussionist plays some guitar[I think] and sings really well. Sax
player plays percussion extras like whistles in Soulfish, Sax, bass, trumpet
etc. The lead guitar sings, and plays some random horn instrument and maybe
harmonica.
three sets with about a 20 minute break. Pretty good for a college show and
the energy never stopped.
I guess I would be classified as a diehard fan, but they have considerable
Syndrome which is a classic live too! Next time they play your area, get out
asked for it![and so did I] Peace!

Last Nights Boulder Show
jjthomps@slate.Mines.Colorado.EDU Fri May 13 13:40:47 1994
Well, what can I say - best I've seen in Colorado (best of 4 shows) I'm really looking
forward to seeing them at Red Rocks again tonight and tomorrow (they played there once before
with the samples and got me hooked. Anyway on to the set list, in no particular order, and
not including R2T songs (though Minarets was quite intense along with Ants and others) but I
was definately more interested in songs that I have read about here, but not heard live, and
I have not gotten a hold of any tapes (hint, hint for trades from my meager collection).
Dave was good about introducing the songs that aren't on either CD - True Reflections (a new
favorite), Warhouse, Pay For What You Get, Best of Whats Around, Typical Situation, What
Would You Say (he mentioned that they hadn't decided whether or not it will be on the next
album.), Watchtower (encore and quite a crowd response), Rhyme and Reason, and I think they
opened with part of #36, thats all I can remember right now.
I ordered a DAT on Monday, and the guy assured me it would be here by Thursday (day of the
show) but the guy lied - so rather than taping, I was dancing (just as much fun but doesn't
last as long as a good recording, so what I'm asking for is any copy of the show. :)
Hopefully I'll get my recorder soon and catch Laguna Seca Daze, and Soulhat, and Phish, snd
the Spin PhDs later in the Summer.
Anyway, adios,

Well guys, since it appears Shawn is not one of the few summer netters, I

Anyway, here it goes... questions, comments, criticism, is always accepted.

The chorus leads directly out of the verse, so I'll transcribe the chords to
the end of the verse again here so you have a lead in to the chorus to hear
what it sounds like.

DMB at Red Rocks
jjthomps@slate.Mines.Colorado.EDU Sun May 15 17:39:00 1994
Well, since there is a shortage of net traffic, I hope you all don't mind a
little review/personal story about the shows at Red Rocks over the weekend.
Friday night, got rained on throughout the show, especially during DMB, but
the crowd seemed not to really care, at least the crowd around me. It was
really cool to see all that bright rain gear bopping up and down all over
the ampitheatre. Set list was strickly R2T, but all done very well, and
they were only given 30 minutes (I guess that is politics when you have 3
bands playing) After the set I heard a lot of people sounding very
impressed. The band does a good job of playing to a larger audience ~9000.
check the wheather behind us and see if we were going to be rained on
again. Then when I turned back towards the stage to look at the audience
and the view of Denver, I saw Dave sitting in the top row doing the same.
We got to talking and talked about everything from politics, to performance
art, to South Africa, etc.etc. the man sure can jump topics. But it was
really cool just to sit and shoot the shit with him for a while. Anyway,
to be Steve Lillywhite (who has worked with U2 among others) and that they
are going to New York in a couple of days to start recording. He told me
the name of the studio was Bearsville or Bayersville or something - but I
guess it is one of the top 10 facilities in the U.S. and he was really
excited about the chance to record there. He spent 20 minutes describing
the way the studio is set up. As for songs, though nothing is definate, he
mentioned working on Drive In Drive Out. Although I told him I'd never
heard it in the 6 times I had seen the band. He also said he would like to
work up Pay For What You Get into a full band arrangement for the album. I
guess Tim Reynolds will be in the studio with the band as well so we could
see him on the new album.
Then we talked about the set list for that nights show. He said he would
like to start with Billies, simply because its a good song to introduce the
band to the audience. I suggested Watchtower because it would be really
cool to see people's faces as they figured out what song the band was
playing. He also mentioned Rhyme and Reason, but wasn't sure about it.
Besides, he said, they are only given 30 minutes to squeeze in a song list
that does justice to the band. Well, this night they came out ten minutes
early, opened with Tripping Billies, Satelite, then Rhyme and Reason (which
he told the audience wasn't on the album, but might be on the next), then
Watchtower, then Drive In Drive Out (for wich I yelled "thank you") and
closed with Ants. The crowd didn't really catch on until the middle of the
set, but seemed to be wowed nonetheless.
Anyway, sorry to ramble, but it was just such a memorable weekend...
Adios,

so who lives near woodstock?
btanen@husc.harvard.edu Mon May 16 20:48:08 1994
Okay, with DMB headed up to Bearsville to record what the album that
will probably be called "The Dave Matthews Band," I was wondering if
anyone lives in the area and may run into the guys.
If you are up there-- keep us posted!

It's about time.
From today's Chicago Tribune newswires.....
(New York) A racketeering lawsuit was filed Tuesday against Ticketmaster,
Tower Video, the New York Yankees and other sports teams, alleging they
violate antitrust laws by fixing ticket prices. The federal suit alleges
Ticketmaster has a monopoly in the off-site sale of tickets and that it has
given kickbacks to arena operators and promoters to obtain exclusive ticket
rights. Other defendants include Madison Square Garden, New York Jets, New
York Giants football team and the New York Rangers and Islanders hockey
teams.
steadily raise ticket prices.
Can we hope for the end of the Ticketbastard monopoly?
Let's hope that a competitor springs up very soon.

Drive In Drive Out - NOT!!
jjthomps@slate.Mines.Colorado.EDU Tue May 17 14:25:34 1994
When I posted my little speal (sp?) about the Red Rocks shows, I mistakenly
said they played Drive In Drive Out, a fellow netter who was there pointed
out that the song I heard, though it mentioned something about "driving" in
the lyrics, was Two Step.
This proves two things - one, people are very kind on this net - I didn't
get a lot of mail saying "you idiot, you know nothing!!!", but rather
someone just corrected me, and secondly I NEED TAPES. I am a newbie, I
only have a few phish to offer as trade, and am still waiting on a dipshit
mailorder company to send out my DAT. I am willing to send
blanks/maxpoints/firstborn child/etc anything to get a hold of some tapes
so I can learn the songs. Plus it will give me something to listen to
during the long, tourless months ahead.
Adios,

D.C. this summer (no DMC)
bobgee@merle.acns.nwu.edu Thu May 19 20:58:04 1994
Sorry to waste space with non Dave Matthews stuff, but with the small digests
these days, I didn't figure y'all would care too much.
Anyway, I'm gonna be in D.C. this summer (got an internship) and was wondering
if anyone is also staying there and may be looking for an extra person for an
apt. or house they may be subletting (in Georgetown perhaps). I would be
interested, so please let me know. Also, if anyone may know of a cool
bar/restaurant type place to try to work part time I'd appreciate any tips.
Thanks, and sorry for the wasted space, but I don't know a soul in washington
and getting a place on my own would cost much $.
They're pretty interesting -- kinda like that Rhyme and Reason thread a while
back.

I don't know if anyone gets this, reads this, or what, but I subscribed
and there's not a whole lot being said around here! So, from the school
where Dave made a name for himself (if you don't believe me check the
liner notes of Remember Two Things), I'd like to ask for more people to
write to this goddamn net! Is dave playing in New England/Boston this summer?
Sincerely,
Jon

A few questions/Wake up call
NebuIous@aol.com Sat May 21 23:03:45 1994
I have a few questions, partially just to try and liven up this net. :)
1) Does anyone know which HORDE dates DMB will be playing at? Is Jones Beach
or any of the ones around NY good guesses? Will they be touring anytime
during the summer?
2) Is Tarx in charlottesville, va? If not, where is it?
3) If I recall correctly, Dave's sister died a few months ago. Was this
Jane? if so, has he played the song that jane likes since that time?
Thanks, any responses, either to the net or personal are very welcome.

Band update?
HAUSERBT@pine.circa.ufl.edu Sun May 22 16:31:50 1994
What's the band doing this summer? I've seen one June date for the Super Jam
in Athens. After this I guess they're recording in upstate NY. Does anyone
know how long? And when might they hit the road again? They definitely
deserve a rest but I'm itching to see em again...
Thanks

Say Goodbye 10/15/93
bobgee@merle.acns.nwu.edu Mon May 23 00:47:58 1994
I think this is the first time Say Goodbye was played for a few reasons, but
anyone with any other info, please post. I got this acoustic set as filler on
a Dave and Tim show (Best, Rhyme and Reson, Say Goodbye) and I think it was at
Hampden-Sydney. I know the song evolved from "Any noise" or "ani-noise" that
he played a few times in July '93. But this is clearly the chords for Say
Goodbye, but with completely different lyrics. Interestingly, when I talked to
Dave in Chicago on 10/24, he mentioned a new song he had been working on, but
hadn't yet played. Then on 10/26 he played Say Goodbye at Trax, probably with
the current lyrics or something similar. (I haven't heard this show.)
But anyway, here's how this one goes from 10/15:
for a week last week and I wrote this song, but it's not really written yet.
But I'm gonna play it anyway, and I hope I don't fuck it up, but if it sounds
like I'm fuckin' it up, just bear with me."
Oh say, you're turning away again
Oh time grows tired
Oh, watch, well I'm leaving rain (autumn child?)
(..?) Let me go and I wait all the hours
Time to see just where I'm going
We can find our way back anytime soon
Then why in the right (...?)
And you find numbers inside
Lay your troubles at your feet
Lay in cold, no...
The riches are indeed*
Say god, a man is so alone
We stand human, a clever monkey moans
Oh god, look at us all
We dance between how we are and what we appear to be
Oh God, how it grows
This confusion inside us all
But remember the echo that we know so well
Is shared by everyone, everywhere
Say man
The reason why they
Came and called us in again
I won't lie if I say "no"
And the race (....?)
Lie as you will
And fight as we try to beat out what's right with the might
And a powerful fist won't do it, no
No matter how hard we try, it just won't do*
No matter how hard we try, it just won't do*
Chime away, go again
And you'll leave me like you do
Find a way, the darkness separates
We all leave a way
Laid in by, come outside
Breath the air and relax
You're uptight and scream for a while
Let the anger bellow out
But say (...?) lazy
Yea, grey you grow
But why, I'm so tired
For echoes away
I lay by your side
Questions, they won't hide themselves away
Feeling awful
Tired again*
(...?) = unable to discern words
* = sung the same way as "tommorow, go back to being friends" in the current
version
Well, any ideas on interpretations. Was he just babbling, or does this mean
something. Lots of jumbled ideas it seems to me, but definitely had streaks of
the beautiful introspective stuff Dave pours into his songs. It's always a
great treat when you find a tune like this on a tape. Perhaps the only time he
sung it like this. Probably abandonned the these lyrics for the more cheesy
one he uses now. (I still like them, just not as interesting.)
'I first saw Dave on 9/14/93 on his first trip to Chicago, he opened the show
with a beautiful 6-song acoustic set. Maybe when the audience is smaller, he
feels more free to experiemnt and play alone (there were about 40 folks at
that Chicago show). I just haven't heard of any songs played acoustic recently
except Say Goodbye. I hope he doen't plan on saving these solo renditions just
for the shows with Tim Reynolds, 'cause they're too good.
Just wanted to liven things up around here.

Re: MINARETS digest 183
pmcfalls@SEI.CMU.EDU Mon May 23 12:31:07 1994
me. i am up here in pittsburgh after spending a little stint at uva. last
week, i was up in the mountains about an hour a away, in ligonier, pa, close
to seven springs. out of the blue, i met this guy, who was from c-ville, and
we started talking about dmb.i told him how i was into dmb and also more of
his mellow stuff, along with the work of indecision. he goes back to his car,
and gives me a boot of the bayou, fall 93 show? of dmb. it is quite good, and
had a lot of songs that i had never heard or never remembered, aka not the
signature songs. overall, it was just a cool experience all around, and this
to me is what the music scene is about, locale. spreading the word to others.
there is something about being in the mountains. upon the blue ridge
mountains, here i'll take my stand. . .a rifle on my shoulder, six shooter in
my hand, i've been all around this world. oh well, later all, i hope this made
some sense.

It was not Jane. It was an older sister, I think. Her husband flipped out
and shot her, then himself, leaving two stranded kids. I think they were
at VanRipers because Dave mentioned newphews that were seeing him for the
first time, and there were two children sitting stage right the whole
show with no real parental firgures in sight. That's about all I can
remember from the article in the Richmond Time dispatch.....
