coming to Oregon in November (Why not Seattle?)) I just d/led all 6 megs of pictures and stuff.. 'tis great. I have a question about one of my present favorite bands. In Rhyme & Reason, there's reference to "needle to the vein" etc... Now I still don't know if Jeff Buckley (other favorite band) is on soe harder stuff, but I oh so hate for great musicicans to be screwed up on big-time stuff like Heroine or Coke... kind of greedy in one respect, but it's really just concern. So is this autobiographical, as much of Daves stuff seems to be, or postulation, or was I wrong on the point of where Daves lyrics come from, or what?Top Permalink
Will, in the past years, I don't think anyone of them would subdue themselves to such a crazy drug as heroine. Granted, the band definitely does not pass up the oppurtunity to fire up a phat spliff, but heroine is going a little far. My guess would be that Dave, just like any rock star, has seen other musicians fall to the addiction of heroine. I have a feeling that as Dave continues to enter the mainstream and be exploited by cheesy sorority girls, as he will inevitably be, many more rumors about Dave's personal life (i.e. sexual orientation, etc.) will be fabricated. It is up to the true fans to appreciate him for his brilliant lyrics and unstoppable musical ability, and not to judge him on any other standards. By the way, if anyone out there has a bootleg of the DMB jamming with Greg Howard at the floodzone when Leroi's nephew's rap group accompanied the band on an encore of Halloween, I would greatly aprreciate a bootleg trade.Top Permalink
Actually, while some people do, some people don't. Carter says he doesn't. I wouldn't suspect Dave or any of the rest of them, but then again, you never know. JohnTop Permalink

In response to the fear of DMB on Letterman cause BT is playing, no worries...ye Letterman and Paul Shaffer are both big Traveler fans, Paul even plays on BT's new album. Traveler has played letterman before, 3 times, not including this one if im correct dating as far back as 1990-1. So while it's possible that DMB could perform, don't use BT as any sort of gauge. Just a note, IanTop Permalink
in the acoustic genre. Their electric guitars are not known for quality, but I play a Washburn acoustic (sorry, it's not black) and it's excellent. mad when someone said that Washburns weren't good. Obviously not an acoustic player.Top Permalink

set as they do now. they used to hardly ever have opening acts and Dave used to come out solo and sing away for about 45 min. yes it was way groovy and thats how i started to love 'em. cause they gave so much music to us! but hey they still do. i remmember one nite ( the miguel valdez benefit at the flood zone) carter, darryl rose and some other people kept on jammin' long after the soundboard was turned off. they were jamming on congas and such. i left at 3:30 A.M. cause i had an 8:00 class(uggghhhh) but my bro said they played until he didn't care what time it was! yes they DMB contains gifted,beautiful musicians! i have many more stories of late nite jams and such but i been in this basement too long, my eyes are turning red and i need to go get some real light into my bones. SUNSHINY DAY!!! Peace.Top Permalink
well, seems this net is pretty balanced for the most part. for every time i come on saying that true reflections is the low point in the dmb setlist, someone says it's the greates, and more or less the same for granny. so let's balance out the bainbridge/durham thing. i hate 'em. i hate aru, too, but i solve that problem by not going to aru shows. but on 7-27-93, when i went to hear dave band, i got to hear a rip-ass first set, and then a second set that was nothing more than oteal impressing himself and durham, beauford, and whats-his-name from indecision being the only ones who could keep up. stefan was completely shut out of the second set and sat in the corner like a dejected child. after the show he was visibly upset, and if i'm not mistaken, dave simply walked off stage and let them have their fun since they decided to steal the show. it's all well and good the bainbridge and durham can jam there asses off and steal the show, but to do it when they're guests? i wanted to see dave band, not half of aru. i'd already seen aru once that day, and that was enough. i've also had the displeasur of meeting mike not once, but several dozen times over the course of the summer that he worked in "summer rhythms" at kings dominion. i spent a great deal of time hanging out with freinds in the entertainment lounge, and all he did was sit in the hall playing tunes to himself. there's one thing to practice incessantly. there's another thing to really enjoy playing. but's it's entirely another thing to simply believe that your music is more important than the rest of the world. i don't have much respect for a musician who is so arrogant with his music that he doesn't have time to be polite the person trying to step over his lazy ass in the hall to get out of a building while he sits there and plays "cliffs of dover" by eric johnson. i'm really sorry to be so vicious, but that night was a big downer. i know a lot of people here disagree, but i also know that a lot of people here really dig oteal and aru. ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ to possess...plain common sense." \ dave matthews band faq type --immanuel kant \ person and lyrics extraordinaire __________________________________ \_________________________________ \ rick thompson \ stu_rcthomps@vax1.acs.jmu.edu \____________________________________Top Permalink

does anyone have a hq tape of the Madison show? I would be happy to trade or send blanks. Thanks, PaulTop Permalink
I think the best way we can get Jambay to play the east coast is to spread the word as much as possible around here as well as everywhere else possible. To anyone who has never Jambay, they are a fantastic band who play all original music that completely rocks. In any case, I have been given a tape to spread. It is a clone of the master board from 6-14-93 Fox Theatre - Boulder, CO I have not listened to the whole tape yet so I cannot provide you with a setlist or exact times. It is on 2 120min dats, but I doubt it is 240min long. I will post more specifics later. If you want this tape, send me an email saying "yes i want it". I should also know whether you want a dat or analog copy and if you can make copies for others. I don't know if this will follow the usual tree distribution cycle & I will make that decision when I find out what kind of response I get. Silence comes with no instructions, GrayTop Permalink
Three posts in one day, I think thats more than I've posted in the last six months. Anyway, to the business at hand. I hope I don't disappoint anyone with this, but frankly whether or not the band choose to partake in any illegal (or legal for that matter) substances is none of our damn business! Be they great musicians, the dave matthews band are real people who have lives of their own. I see us here to discuss the music rather than worrying about who does what kind of drugs. Perhaps if the quality of the music were to suffer, there may be reason to speculate, but that is clearly not the case here (go ahead and disagree with me). Hope I haven't offended anyone with this, but I feel there's just too much trash on the bandwidth these days. grayTop Permalink
it), there is a DMB section on the ever growing "archive.phish.net" FTP site. You can find stuff about DMB, BT, Jambay, Horde, Phish, and a whole bunch of other bands. DMB has 6 megs of pictures, small versions of the same, a chords file which helps you along with playing the guitar parts ( and _some_ sax and violin) to selected dmb songs. There is also an FAQ, which explains this list, band info, history, taping stuff, trading stuff, net stuff, stuff stuff, and more stuff. me some mail, I'd be happy to tell you.. incidents, and need to finish up another 1 for 1 trade, I'd be interested in running a DMB tree if anyone wants to offer up seeds, or I can wait and use one of the three shows I'll be seeing here in the NW in November. Running the tree would include making custom colour J-cards for dat and analog.. later.... ERic I just d/led all 6 megs of pictures and stuff.. 'tis great. I have a question ERic..

guitar player your notorius for wanted to express yourself past your welcome. "EEEEEEEE WAAAAAAAA EEEEEEEE WAAAAAAAAAAAA cruncha crunchaEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEeEEEE"---famous guitar lick. on a sadder note, yes Mike is withdrawn and pretty much of a freak but it not entirely by his own decree. he has to take psychoactive drugs daily to be able to function. 'nuff said. yea, i know Stefan was bummin at that after HORDE show. how would you like it if someone stepped in for " a song or two" and completely took over your instrument? bad musical ethics. i would of pissed in a bottle and replaced the beer....oh well shit happens. the only reason i did'nt freak out was 'cause i was psyched to see big name musicians finally catching on to the where the real music was being played. DMB worked their asses off to play and a litle musical support helps out tremendously. look what the bootlegs and Minarets.net have done. trust me DMB knows they owe us one! i'm out. p.s. ---this is a response to the after HORDE DMB show and ARU bashing post.

Just so you guys know, 'heroine' is usually spelled heroin. while technically dictionaries will give both definitions, the one with the 'e' is typically reserved for the type of heroine that the big muscled man saves in the last act of the play. oh um... official dave content... er... i got that screen saver & sounds thing, and it's really just a joke. nothing worth saving on there...

i'm not sure who the person or people by this name who've played with DMB might be, but i can tell you that the're not from the Aquarium Rescue Unit. ARU includes (or included): Oteil Burbridge, Col.

hey, Nice set, 2 hours and 5 minutes. I think Dave put on a great show for all the record execs there. Rusted Root absolutely kills. Reallly fresh, great sound, present well in concert. I am hooked. Anyways back to Dave. Really good set IMHO. My favorite was the Watchtower encore, which I feel that 75% of the crowd didn' figure out until they started jamming hard. About the crowd. I have never been so dissapointed about a crowd in my life. Nothing against some of the fine schoools in my hometwon, but could the frat boys have been any more drunk??? I felt like killing the 3 meatheads in front of me who insisted on talking during every song and yelling "DAVE" during times when he was talking between songs (probabl one of the funnier times during a show). I'm a pacifist at heart but had to restrain myself. Also during Cry Freedom Cry noone was listening, which is one of his classic songs IMHO. ANyways enough bitching about the crowd. Steve P.S. Does anybody know if Rusted Root is still opening at the Indiapolis show? Any info would be cool...Top Permalink

I have heard much of this song and yet have never heard it. Got it? What I want to do is hear it, so if you'd mail me and tell me you have a tape with it I'd trade my good stuff to you... Thank you. Oh also - last night at the Phish show in Spartanburg, SC a bunch of cops entered the theater and began patting people's pockets down and making them empty their pockets. Bottom line - I managed to escape without getting hurt, but my friend was caught for possession of pot and parafanelia. So be careful - if you see the cops inside a theater, go where they aren't, because it's not worth any trouble they can cause you. I posted a whole long schpeal on the Phish net about cops and busting us for something that harms no one, but I don't feel like reitterating any of it, cause the whole thing really makes me sick, but any discussion is welcome. And #36. Let's hear it. Thanks for your time, and let's learn from each other's mistakes. Russ. *********************************SPYWAGON********************************Top Permalink

Highlights were Get in Line, Nancies, and a hot Watchtower favorites, overall not a really inspired show. I've seen them a bunch of times but I just don't think they are getting better. They are getting tighter....but almost all the jamming and random stuff just doesn't seem to be there anymore. Brian, used to, Dave only busts into his strumming solo once, whereas he used to do it twice, and the second could go on for a little while. The 4 shows I have seen have been very mediocre and I am starting to think twice about my love for this band. The crowds suck, I can barely hear over the din of every single person screaming the lyrics to Satellite or having my view of the band obstructed by crowd surfers. All the songs are done in the same arrangements that are done on the album. The days of unintelligible Dave lyrics are over, Parts of Jimi THing used to be undecipherable. Warehouse as well. Dave is playing to the crowd, plain and simple. Except for a few examples from this tour I think all these opinions to be true. And I will stop this tirade, although I could go on. Flame Away, Sean P.S. Brian do you want to trade, if so give drop me a line.Top Permalink

As subject says, this is directed to those of you that are W&L students. If you aren't then you don't have to waste your time reading it. Now then- my girlfriend is writing a "review" of your fine institution for the Yale Daily News "Insider's Guide to Colleges". She has to interview 5 W&L students. She has spoken with two, and needs to find three more. It would take about twenty minutes of your time, and it's a great way to tell perspective students about your school. if your administration has done anything you hated, here's your chance for revenge! Likewise, if you love something in particular about W&L, here's a chance to let high school seniors know about it. If you are willing to give her about twenty minutes of your time, write to me or directly to her at jhiltune@minerva.cis.yale.edu Include your phone# in the message so she can call you.

ok ya'll. no.. not anyone specific.. but what's up with all this anger? this hostility? just take it all one cigarette at a time. let's cut the anger. go meditate. go walk in tomorrows sunshine. go hug a beautiful girl/guy you have never met. go jump in a rain puddle. splash splash splash.. go nourish your inner child. go find a cosmic soulmate. go out and make passionate love. swing on a swing. lie down in the grass. 'lie down.. lie down and wait.. like an animal' (- the utter god, bukowski) jump on your bed. burn incense. read kahlil gibran. have a lollipop. drink a fesca. play some kate bush. play some nineinchnails. smoke another cigarette. cuddle with a stuffed animal. but let's stop this anger. if i have to post like this again.. i'll be very disappointed in you kiddies... us 'old timers' know that when i have to write in like this.. it's not good. soldier proceeding into battle. his wrath will poison the pure spring of the life of his community and he will be like the grain of aloes in a pitcher of pure water.' -k.gibran. in your hands and graces (borrowed from a friend), clare emily ******************************************************************************* ********************************************************************************Top Permalink

Just a question to clear up something I can't quite remember. Seems to me that I remember something about Boyd getting hurt a while back but I just can't place the entire story. Is this fading memory the reason that he doesn't appear during the encore for this show? If not, could someone please tell me the reason for his absence? I do appreciate it :-) klongTop Permalink
If I remember correctly, after the set, when boyd was going backstage, someone opened the door into him & smashed his violin. Thus Boyd was not hurt, only his instument.

I'm always psyched to hear about good bands on this net and if they're coming my way to give 'em a listen, so in the spirit of extending the good tips on cool bands (most recently the band everything), here's one you might wanna check out. They've been playing for a little more than a year, and are starting to take it on the road. The Undies are a five piece band with male and female lead vocals, with the rest of the band backing up. The strength of this band is definitely their harmonies and the female lead. They are jamming more and more, but the folk/funky/pop feel with great vocals is what makes 11/4 Orlando, FL Hard Rock Cafe 11/11 Orange Park, FL Road--?? 11/12 Daytona Beach, FL Black Eyed Susan's 11/17 Auburn, AL Locker Room 11/18 Birmingham, AL Five Points South Music Hall 11/19 TBA 11/21 Orlando FL, Downtown Jazz and Blues Festival 11/26 Tallahassee, FL The Moon 12/2 Gainesville,FL Florida Theater 12/3 Athens, GA Atomic Music Club 12/9 Valdosta, GA JP's 12/15 Atlanta, GA Chameleon Club 12/16 Charlotte, NC Amos' 12/17 Chattanooga, TN The Sandbar If ya do go tell 'em you saw it posted on the Net...Thanks ________________________________________________________________________________ _Always looking for good DMB and everything tapes.... _______________________________________________________________________________Top Permalink
has anyone seen a show at wait chapel before? if so, could you tell me what the seating arrangements are like (ie, reserved, floor/balcony, etc.). thanks a lot. dave Wait Chapel seats 2,379 people (i have a little pamphlet here on it) Im not sure how many of those are in the balcony however. The seats on the floor are arranged in 4 sections with three aisles between them. The seating is reserved but i heard that when WP played there, evryone got up and was in the aisles and pushing put towards the front, pretty much ignoring the reserved seating thing... but i wasnt there... there it is.. kristinTop Permalink

Everyone out there who thinks this new wave of music(everything, dave, ect.) kicks ass has two CD's to add to their collection. About two years ago, someone in colorado got the brilliant idea to put the best unsigned bands the country on a disk. The project is called AWARE. Some artists include Everything, Jackopierce, the Grapes, Acoustic Junction, The Winebottles, Jupiter Coyote, Beanland, SHANNON WORRELL, Edwin McCain, Hootie, ect. Get them! they are well priced, and two of the best Cd's you will own. There has also been rumors of an AWARE tour to rival the HORDE tour in the next summer.

Hey ben, (I forget which one) Whaddaya say we tree the screen saver disc?? We wont have any problems with generatino quality loss!! Hehe only kidding....I jus thought it was funny..... Anyways, someone posted that dave is only getting tighter and playing the same stuff. I think his tighteness is the problem in general. Yes, a band needs to be tight enough to know when to play the chorus etc, but now that they have gotten each song down to a highly repeatable version, no spotaneous jams happen. Isn't Jimi thing supposed to be different each time you hear it??? But still awaiting the Horse Center...... *-----------------------------------------------------------------------* |Chris "Boofy" Buford '96 | |cbuford@liberty.wlu.edu P.O.Box 322 | |Washington and Lee University Lexington, Va. 24450 | | | | "You know what they call a 1/4 pounder in france?" | | "No..." | | "A Royale with Cheese...." | | | | Ezekiel 25:17 | | | |v4.0 | *-----------------------------------------------------------------------*Top Permalink
I just heard from a friend of mine (who doesn't like the DMB) that Rusted Root stole the show up in Pittsburg, is this true? He would probably just say it to piss me off, but he said he was sincere and htat Rusted Root just kept playing and playing. He also said the DMB opened for them? I know Rusted Root is from Pittsburg, but I would be very surprised if DMB opened for them. If someone could shed some light on this whole deal I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks a lot!

A while ago someone made the comment that Boyd and LeRoi were out of tune a LOT recently, and well, we had that discussion about the band's um...well...habits. Well, anyone else notice a connection??? I'm all for legalization and whatnot, and personally, i dont care what others do in their spare time, but when it starts to affect the rest of life, well, thats where I draw a line. I've noticed (big time on the Uva Ampitheatre show) that boyd is almost a full step out of tune at points, and only before the encore does he fix that. I know for a fact that he smokes--he asked me if i had a bowl on me at one point, but if you're getting so high that you can't play right, then maybe something should be done by yourself to fix this. There's nothing wrong with having a few drinks or tokes to loosen up before a gig, but being obliterated is plain irresponsible. Not noticing that you're out of tune until 1 1/2 hours into a show seems a bit much to me.

the fact that dave was #90 on billboard? I thought it was kinda interesting. Like all of us weirdo's went out and bought the album the first couple days, and shot it up to #34 (and on the cosmic scale of things, I'd just like to say that's one of the cooler things I've seen), but then since they haven't hit the main current in this river of sales yet, they slipped _way_ back down..

Hey all. Here's the full text from the previously mentioned People review quirky tunes that ramble along interesting paths. Nonetheless this major-label debut has a beguiling sound all its own, a sound that mixes jazzy accoustic guitar riffs with spiraling sax solos. The songs often have a bittersweet flavor. The opener advises that we settle for "The Best of What's Around," while the conclusion of the soft-spoken "Typical Situation" (Its a typical situation/In these Typical Times/Too Many Choices) resonates in today's anxious culture. Steve Lillywhite's panoramic production suits the talented band, which features a rhythm section with a rock steady pulse and saucy fiddling from Boyd Tinsley. Under the Table and Dreaming is a thoughtful album from a promising artist. Short and relatively sweet -- its nice to see a favorable review, but remember who People Magazine is marketed to...

When Sean Barry wrote of shitty crowds at DMB shows he was right. I have only been to two myself, the first one at Woodbury Forest high school in Va. The crowd was actually moshing to some of the songs, and just being complete assholes in general. My second show was at Roseland last month, and i was surrounded by 7th grade girls screaming(shrilling) Dave's name. any of the shows my friends and I go to? I hope to see some of you at Irving Plaza November 7th!Top Permalink

The digest from hell!! Digest 333 (half of 666...hmmmm) was possibly the worst digest ever spewed from Minarets.net. At the risk of sounding like a guy stuck in the 'glory days' of minarets.net (okay, there weren't any), this net is all of a sudden getting drastically worse. The posts now are almost 100% bullshit. Of course, this post is too, but I sort of feel like we have to deal with this in public (and hopefully with as little name calling as possible) to try and slow our decent into phish.net territory...

the name of the song, as heard on the Uva Ampitheatre show (stefan's voice in the background) is "Say Goodbye". What was the name of the "new really cool unnamed tune" that they soundchecked??? It wouldn't happen to be "drive in drive out" would it??? They soundchecked it at Uva on the 27th of sept, half of it just to appease my constant nagging of dave to play it, but from what he's told me, he wants to revamp it, and start playing it again. For those of you who've seen a full band "Drive In, Drive Out" you know that it can be FULL of amazing jams... Wade closest friends sitting on the floor enjoying a peaceful Dave show...meeeemories....Top Permalink
Does selling out enter the picture? Dave is playing what the people want to hear. Extended jams are awesome for those in the crowd who've heard the song hundreds of times, like say, us, but at the rate he's moving around the country he's just getting heard for the first times now. I saw a show in Chapel Hill with 600 people and he did the most intense jams I have ever seen in a live show. I'm talking ever - I've seen plenty of Phish shows, etc., but I've never seen jams like they did that night. It was 2/15/94. Anyhow I saw them just last month and their jams were nothing. They played the whole CD and nothing I wasn't expected. It seemed even the jams were planned in terms of how many measures they would jam for. What kind of a jam is that? Let's keep this discussion open, though Clare Emily, because lots of good bands stop playing what they want to play when the bucks start rolling in. Phish is one that hasn't; we really don't know what's going to happen with Dave. I'm going to go hug a tree now and pray Dave brings the jams back to his music.
