What would you say?
gottlieb@bu4090.barry.edu Thu Nov 17 11:22:36 1994
I have a few tapes where Dave starts singing something about "sailing"
midway through " What would you say?" Does anyone know what song this is
and if he still plays it this way?
Appreciatively,

setlist?
kowalski@jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu Thu Nov 17 11:55:50 1994
I was wondering if anyone out there knew the setlist for DMB at the Bayou
in DC last Thanksgiving(or Sat. after), I think it was Nov. 27,1993.
That was back when I didn't know the names to any of the songs, although
I do remember loving them all. Now I'm just curious as to what I heard.
Also, I don't know if there even were tapers, but if anyone has a copy of the
show, I'd like to trade, although I don't have much to go on. I just
think it would be cool to have a show that I was at. Anyway, I'd really
appreciate any info. I guess I'm just getting nostalgic since it's that
time of year again.
This is my first post... I finally took the big step...

Hey Now,
uses. It refers to DMB-heads, and those of us on the net would know where
the name came from (besides the song title). Maybe we should vote on the
name issue one of these days. On another note, could anyone out there help
me to obtain any crispy soundboards of any Dave/Tim acoustic show? I have
no DMB to trade, but I have plenty of Phish and Grateful Dead. I would
really appreciate any assistance. Thanks.

minarets.....
RPPRISIN@VAX1.ACS.JMU.EDU Thu Nov 17 13:36:29 1994
Hey Now,
Why don't we just call ourselves "minarets". The name has multiple
uses. It refers to DMB-heads, and those of us on the net would know where
the name came from (besides the song title).
a minaret refers to religious places in the Islamic world.... help me out here
brian it was in one of our history movies....
minarets fit cause we aall take dave pretty religiously (sp)

I'll have to be the 335th person to cast my vote for "Grannies" but this
doesn't mean I'm going to stop sending in suggestions by my friend (actually he
suggested minarets also, but for a different reason). Let's throw a few more of
remember, but I'm sure their were more. Why don't we all call ourselves
Dave-come-latelies, that way there won't be any way to distinguish oldies and
newbies, it'll be equality at it's finest. Ok, stop booing. Since everybody
uses this net to post their favorite non-DMB bands, I'll throw one in. The Gibb
Droll Band has been one of my favorites for about three years now. They (Gibb)
have an awesome bluesy sound to their originals, and are not afraid to blow the
doors off of some blues classics. I can't help but to think that Gibb has to be
the greatest LIVING guitar player around, anybody who's ever seen him can back
me up. He's also the nicest, most polite person I've ever had the pleasure of
meeting. If he ever comes your way, even if you hate the blues, you've got to
check him out. And don't be afraid to go talk to him before/after the show,
he's very receptive and what's more ver GRATEFUL of his fans. He's truelly a
class act. After T-giving I'm thinking of enlisting somebody to help tree one
of his shows, anyone interested? Well I'm wasting way too much bandwidth (that
seems to be a habit with me lately) So I'll Say Goodbye (didja' see what I did
there?) and thank you for your support. I'll leave a light on for ya'.

klemmao4@wfu.edu Thu Nov 17 16:18:17 1994
Just a random request or offer that I'd like to send out. I'm interested
in coming up with a new DMB shirt that would be unique to the die-hard
minareters. Not to do this out of cockeyness to all the newcomers of the
DMB, but its always nice to have some unique memorabilia that
distinguishes you from the masses. One of my friends from the UVA art
school did an awesome oil painting of Dave at the DEKE house at UVa a
while back. I made it into a cool shirt and have a poster of it. If
anybody out there would be interested in having a copy of it, drop me a
line and we'll work something out. Also, I think it would be cool if we
could scrape up that old picture of Dave when his hair was down to his
shoulders, and turn it into something. I don't know if anyone saw any of
the artwork which was submitted before R2T, but there was also a
Picasso-ish painting of the entire band which was absolutely
amasing.Don't get me wrong, I don't want to abuse the band's sales
market and go on some mass-marketing scheme that would detract from the
bands success, but it may be nice to have a unique shirt or something.
Anyone that has any suggestions or artwork that could be transformed into
a "limited edition" shirt, please post.Once again, this is just a
suggestion, and not a plan to create a hierachy amongst fans.

Get yourself something nice this holiday season and give something

Lexington show to as many newbies as I can. All I ask is that whoever
gets a copy, please share it with others on and off minarets. I believe
it will take 2 tapes so if you have a really good show to trade tell me
about it, if not send me blanks. Um...as I said I'll do as many as I can
as this is an attempt to keep me busy during the break. I encourage other
fellow Grannies out there to do the same. After all this is the season of
giving isn't it? :) Anyways send me an e-mail and I'll get back to you

Trinity Memories

Thanks Ben once again for your history. That Trinity show was great it was
one of hte tightest sets in recent memory, MInarets-Bluewater, Jimi
Thing-Seek Up in the same show. The Bluewater was one of the few played
since then, I might even venture to say, I haven't seen it on a setlist
since Trinity, correct me if I am wrong(I know you will anyway) The
greatest thing about it was, was the fact I had to walk all of 15 yards to
get to the show, that may be the shortest.
Keep up the history lessons Ben, hopefully people won't read them and this
net will be doomed to repeat itself. We would be back to same 40 or so
people, wouldn't that be great.

That would be Peter Griesar, the band's keyboard player for about
a year, until he quit and/or the band kicked him out. All I remember
about his departure is showing up at Trax one Tuesday and Dave saying
something like "Peter will be with us no more. Bye bye Peter."
-later
======================================================================
Tom Schwenk
======================================================================
nah KICKED OUT is a little an the harsh side, i believe
i think it was more of a peacable, amiable relaization that Peter had
different goals and such, which made his niche in the band a little
uncomfortable .. so on friendly terms he left to persue other prioriteis
or something
i just know that i have always had the feelingit was very friendly
innuways ... as wierd as it sounds i am of the opinion that although the
keyboards were groovy , the band has a much more polished sound without
it, except peter was excellent for some crazy fun jams
soo while i am on the subject, have so crazy fun

Yes, a Boyd Tinsley Band
eje3u@uva.pcmail.virginia.edu Thu Nov 17 18:11:43 1994
Top 10 reasons to give this a listen.
by Robert Beverly
10. Fiddler Boyd Tinsley broke up his own succesful group to
join the DMB.
is this true?
mine" but he was playing in both for a time (his was called the Boyd Tinsley
Band, another original name) and in fact I believe was only picking up with
Dave, but when things picked up, his band sort of faded away and he became a
permanent part of our lives. I went to the BTB farewell concert at Trax,
and it was very poorly attended. The guitarist from that group was Harry
Faulkner, who together with Boyd formed a duet called Down Boy Down to play
smaller gigs during the same era. They played every Sunday night at Blue
Ridge Brewery and kept the place packed. I last saw Harry at a bar here in
town after the Horde concert in Richmond and I was sort of bummed for him,
with Boyd moving on and up so fast. He really is a master of the small bar
guitar cover gig though, always plays Norwegian Wood for me, and not just a
snippet of it like some other bands :)

New Year's eve Show

the 30th and the 31st of this year. I'm going to quickly tell you all on
this net, I expect Buford, Clare, Alex, and all you other nuts to be
there, that I am going to be there for both of the shows. My good friend
and I are driving up to Virginia and staying with a fraternity brother in
Vienna. i guess we are all staying at the Marriot on the 31st along with
2000 others, is that correct? Is everyone staying there? Anyways, this
is going out to all of you that plan on going there. We are actually
leaving on the 26th so that we will catch Widespread out there too. I
guess Pad's, the guy from Vienna, brother is snagging us some tickets.
How great is this going to be. All of the beer and food you can eat,
sounds like it's going to be a fine time. We are planning on stopping at
our chapter at UVA, we are all DEKES, that is, if there is anything going
on there. If everyone plans on doing something after or before the show,
get back to me, it could be the making of a fine plan.

I just wanted to echo the positive statement someone made about God Street
Wine. They're very fun live. The music is more straight Rock and Roll
than Dave, but what they lack in complexity they usually make up in energy.
go see 'em if you get the chance.
If any body would like a copy of some GSW shows, I would be happy trade
for some good quality DMB. Let me know.

point of interest on this particular recording is that it is 40 minutes
long with 5 songs. Song 3 is called "Trilogy". On it, Boyd Tinsley joins
the band for this 13 minute song. NICE. Just thought you might like to

Paul,
Good call on kickin and screamin. If anyone is interested in some
real good Allgood, pick up their independantly released Ride The Bee
on Meccabitch records. As with most good HORDE bands, they were
ruined on their major label debut album Uncommon Goal. For those who
don't know Allgood, they were discovered about the same time as DMB.
They played together on the HORDE last yeat and Kickin and Screamin
proves once again that the only way to truly capture HORDE music is
live.

Spooning

I know that spooning is a baffling concept to many of you out there in
minarets land, so I figured the best way to solve the problem is to
have a survey. The person who gets closest to the correct answer (who
didn't know first hand) wins a copy of the "We Are Who We Are" show
from Ziggy's 7/3/93. Same goes for the most creative answer, though
to win the most creative, it has to be more creative than my guess :-)

Re: Spooning

deck can record a bootleg. All that is needed is a bit bucket, plus the
prerequisite namesake, a spoon. As the data-bits fall from waterfall de
la Bagby, they are cought in the bit bucket for a short period of time,
as they drain out the bottom and into a splitter, and the cereal/serial
energy it fed into a digital or analog deck. The "spooned" bits are
collected, taken home, and then you take a _diluted_ solution of
bit-resin and pure bits. DO NOT bathe in pure bits, you will alternate
colors corresponding to a cubic equation which references to the
Pantone(r) color matching scheme, in the worst cases, limited to the
pastels only. Beware, spooning can be dangerous, so try it alone, so
that not too many people will get hurt, and leave a good journal, so that
future explorers can have their glory lessened by the fact that you made
an independent yet redundant observation. Classes in advanced spoonology
will be held at the Center for Faberware Production in the Fall, sign up now.

Spooning
djb@mars.gtcc.cc.nc.us Fri Nov 18 01:25:48 1994
I believe that the practice of spooning began with the
Aborigines when the British began to populate Australia. Not
knowing what utensils were for, they had no idea what the silly
looking things with the curved end were. Ultimately they
decided that they were some sort of sign from the gods. They
began to line up all of the spoons that they could find with
the sun. The reflection of the light caused the spoons to
resonate at their natural frequency when they began to cause
the surrounding areas to vibrate. This vibration continues on
for many years, passing one time through the Tacoma Narrows,
causing the collapse of a bridge. Today, this idea is used for
many things, including the baking of pork at its optimal
temperature so that it is very hot and wet and also it is used
as the voice of Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey in some
videos, causing those ear-drum shattering notes.

spoons, man!
DSCHMITT@utkvx.utk.edu Fri Nov 18 01:51:18 1994
Spooning is an neolithic Japanese ritual which involves the removal of the
genitals of the first born male of every family with a long-handled blunt
scooping object. The male is then paraded through the city while every
female virgin of the tribe pummels him with oversized ladles while chanting
"So why would you care to get out of this place?" The male is then returned
to his dorm room where he is bound and forced to listen to his comp
terminal beep with incoming e-mail while he cannot responDougd.
This is the definition I found in my encyclopedia.

Hey all,
The T-shirt idea is great! It seems that Dave encourages that kind of

it and use it in his catalog. Doesn't it say in there someplace that
one of the shirts was adapted from artwork by a fan?

need to scrounge up 52.50. Of course I probably won't be able to take
advantage of the bar unless I stay at the hotel, which means I need
another ton of money, lets start a pool for the Net Room, bring your
e-mail address for entry..hehehe
Number 2)while Peter's departure, which I hear was caused cuz he got
bought a house, made the band tightened up a bit, nothing is more amazing
than the previously mentioned 11-17-92 Cry Freedom with just Dave and
him. For a good Peter tape, check out 12-2-92 flood Zone. Its got a
killer Lover and the old fast One Sweet World. Also a nice
minarets-bluewater and Dancing Nancie-Warehouse, which he just recently
brought back...
3)T-shirts sound like a KILLER idea. some of the new dave stuff is, well,
i'll say it, kinda strange looking. Of course the tobaggan "Stefan style"
hat is a must. We could also use this t-shirt as a way of meeting each
other. Like "I'll be wearing the netter shirt and the blue hat at the
sound board" If we wanted to get really creative, we could have people
scan their artwork and send it to the ftp site, if this is possible (ben
tanen whats the word) I give it a hearty thumbs up.

Hello all,
I know Jeff posted this question earlier, then reposted, but since I

going to ask. Does anyone know of ticket info for the Dec. 1 Santa Cruz

New Ideas
WIFOY@DAVIDSON.EDU Fri Nov 18 10:27:53 1994
oh sorry, wrong computer......
Good to see other Davidsonians on here!
The Rush Fanzine recently did a t-shirt idea, and it took off. The
digest is called The National Midnight Star and it had a star on the
pocket and a couple of quotes on the shirt's back and pocket.....
something good] has a minaret, a very ornate one from somewhere. on
the back there is some artwork of a guy in the top screaming from the
and put the address of the listproc? This might be a problem though
if we have too many people new to the idea of a mailing list, so we
could leave out the address if needed.
It would help if we determined the name of our fans, like we did
bagbies. I personally don't have a preference, although, since my
name is William, I do like the name :"Billies." ;)
Peace, and good luck with those Davie County Stormtroopers in the
Kangaroo court they run there, Buford!

Why do all of you insist on coming up with all of these labels for

started reading more on this net then phish net. Guppies, Groupers,
Phishwipes, Satellites, Grannies, Billies, Nancies? What the fuck?
I'm sorry, but I've been under this hippie/deadhead label for too long, and
I'm not about to give myself one. I love the Dave Matthews Band and it's
practically all I listen to simply because his songs seem to apply directly
to my life. Why don't we take that for what it is and not try and label it

Hey guys,
and 5 ants per row. The ants would all be cartoon ants that look alike and
are marching. You wouldn't be able to tell them apart, kind of like the
song, "All the little ants are marching . . . They all do it the same way."
a band member. So far I've done the first row and I have the third ant,
dancing and playing a guitar. In each of the consecutive 5 rows, an ant
would be, for instance, playing the fiddle with his leg up in the air like
Boyd when he starts getting into it. You get the idea, it should be sweet.
the rest, but he will be smiling and holding an envelope in his left hand,
to represent e-mail. Tell me what you think?

Hey y'all,
compelled to label ourselves, but I also see nothing wrong with us netters
wanting to have a collective name that we can use to identify ourselves. The
unity amongst this band's followers is stronger than most, and as long as we
come up with our own name and use it voluntarily then there's nothing wrong
with it. To the person who wrote about Gen X, that was a title given TO us by
the media, it was taken from the title of a book about our generation. It was
not something we gave to ourselves. Well, there seems to be a line for this

Hey all,
27th, or passing through Charlotte en-route to Atlanta on 85? If so I
want to arrange some sort of road trip so we can all go down there
together, as a whole, as one, as Minarets, as those who appreciate and
second. It will be quite a trip!
PS.
fucking awesome! Shannon Worrell was very cooool and Acoustic Junction
was un-fucking-believable with their incedibly intense jams. The Grapes
closed the show nicely with long electric guitar jams. Sorry to those who
wanted a tape, no tapers were present.

Actually, I got $1.99 Romances and I didn't think it was that good either. I've
never seen them live so I can't make a judgement about that, but from the
very first song on their CD, "Princess Henrietta" (which I thought was not only
a terrible first song on a CD, but was a real turn off), I wasn't impressed.
I'm returning the CD.

The T-Shirt dilema!!!!
sctm@vt.edu Fri Nov 18 14:31:59 1994
What's up?
to wait before we do anything to hear some other ideas. To clarify though,
the shirt will hopefully symbolize uniqueness, a desire to be free to do
whatever you so desire to do. I am not designing the T-shirt for the sole
purpose that the song is so popular. It is meant more as symbol of the band
and it's fans. I know all the jerks at the shows love Ants, but they won't
be able to get the shirt, and they are symbolized on the shirt as all the
little mindless Ants that Get In Line, so whatever the case we need more
ideas for T-shirts, and we need more response. So if you like the idea,
please e-mail personally so as not to take up bandwith and I will
occasionally inform everyone as to how the response is going, but let's
hear some other good ideas! Oh yeah and whoever originally inspired me to
design the shirt and who was organizing this deal, please email me it's
important!!!!!!

airbrushing was invented so that Elvis, unicorns, and rainbows would forever
hang on the walls of Longwood/Randolph-Macon dorm rooms. (HeHe, I'll hear it
for that one) But don't fret, matbe this will serve to enlarge Dave's
following, not bring down the quality of his fans. Personally, I'm just curious
as to how they'll do this, Concert footage, or cheesy lipsync. Until the next

the evil media
Lyn.Debevoise@williams.edu Fri Nov 18 15:38:38 1994
To the person who wrote about Gen X, that was a title given TO us by
the media, it was taken from the title of a book about our generation. It was
not something we gave to ourselves.
nicknames were bandied about, after which we held a democratic vote on
what to call ourselves. But while you're being technical, I might add that
at the time the book came out many people (including ones not associated
with the evil mainstream media) were decrying the fact that they had no
nifty nickname for our generation - the first in over a hundred years to
not have one. So some guy decided he'd take the initiative, not unlike
some people on this net are doing now, and give our (and his) generation
a nickname of his own making.
parts of the mainstream media (such as the venerable Rolling Stone and MTV)
started blaming the rest of the media for forcing it upon us. But then,
these media exist solely because they have managed to convince people
that they are not the "establishment" which they so clearly are.
seeking out "alternative" news sources, you latched onto what was really
the mainstream media in disguise (similar to how Reality Bites was a major
studio motion picture pretending to be of and for our generation). How
ironic. Once again, I claim that labelling is both distasteful and
unnecessary.

8:30-10:00 the bar serves beer and wine only (+appetizers) and then from
10:00 (actually, it may be 10:30) to 1:30 there will be a full bar! The
only thing we don't get is real food, so go crazy on the appetizers.
and at shows are getting too commonplace...so many people have that Dancing
Nancies t-shirt
doesn't seem to have the right connotations. So far all of our options have
been song titles (Jimi's, Billies, Nancies)- how about if we look just a bit
deeper and pull something from the lyrics. Just a suggestion, I really don't
find it necessary to have a collective name- the music and our actions should
be enough to define a DMB fan, not a stereotypical name like 'deadheads'. To
me, that's what it's all about- freedom/diversity...not grouping. Maybe that's
a bit too serious, because the name search is all in good fun, but my $.02
just came out unintentionally. Sorry. Anyway, like I was saying at first,
how about some name ideas from the lyrics? anyone Perhaps some
of the things we could have been? Hanis (pronounced hah-nees)...okay, this
isn't as easy as it sounded...oh, well, guess I wasn't much help.

but ii hesitate when answering those questions because i feel like the
bring to mind a certain image, one of style?? life style? dress style??
that i am not sure i can be comfortably boxed into
but if you are meaning to find a name for a fan that is proud of the fact
that music brings all sorts of different people together for the sake of

O.K. this goes out to Dan and allthe rest of the netters out there.
Spooning has been a subject on this net ever since I have been a member
of it. First and foremost, I have tried to settle the issue a long itme
ago by telling everyone what it was but since there are so many more
people talking about it now than ever before I will inform you all again.
I think it was Clare who started the whole thing, and I would guess she
has some kind of idea what it is, but if she didn't and just had heard
the phrase, I will again, tell everyone.
I had first heard of this word on the Island of Nantucket, and Dave if
you are out there, Ross did it with Don and ended up all messy. It was
kinda used as much as the word prepping' (that's a word for another
time). Anyways, I hope this clears things up with everyone. It isn't
really a creative answer but it is correct. I hope that the person
giving out that Ziggy's tape(Dan) thinks so too,

Re: T-Shirt Idea
malachi@leland.Stanford.EDU Fri Nov 18 23:25:50 1994
Hey guys,
For T-shirt ideas I am working on a design that has 5 rows of ants
and 5 ants per row. The ants would all be cartoon ants that look alike and
are marching. You wouldn't be able to tell them apart, kind of like the
song, "All the little ants are marching . . . They all do it the same way."
But in each row, one of the ants would be going nuts, he would represent
a band member. So far I've done the first row and I have the third ant,
dancing and playing a guitar. In each of the consecutive 5 rows, an ant
would be, for instance, playing the fiddle with his leg up in the air like
Boyd when he starts getting into it. You get the idea, it should be sweet.
To link the shirt to the net, the last ant is going to look just like all
the rest, but he will be smiling and holding an envelope in his left hand,
to represent e-mail. Tell me what you think?

"Turns out not where, but who you're with that really matters!"

Personally, I like the idea a lot, but the envelope idea seems a little
bit cheezy (no offense to anyone). Maybe this is because most of us are
--DMB fans who just happen to have e-mail--
--e-mail users who just happen to like the DMB--
Do we really need to represent e-mail on the shirt? It could just be a
Minarets shirt because only we have access to it. Maybe the last Ant
could be just going crazy just dancin' and groovin' (kind of like us). I
know that if I were listening to and watching the DMB right now live, I
wouldn't be worrying about e-mail.

???? - not a clue, cool song though - thought it was the instrumental I've
been reading about, but Dave got around to singing - not that I could
understand a single word (yea, I like a challenge) Five note riff, group
of two, group of three, thats the best description I can give right now
Halloween
November 18 9:00 AM - 8:00 P.M.
one sweet video shoot

What Would You Say
??? Another one that I don't know - and haven't heard mentioned, similar
groove to #36 lasted about 15 min. But don't have it on tape because they
weren't allowing anyone to tape the video shoot.
True Reflections (I think dave was really tired of singing)
were going to shoot a video, and invited everyone down to play the part of
the audience (they recognized our innate acting abilities) A girl up front
yells, "No, don't do it!" Dave laughs and points her out - "This girls
freaking out over here. I don't want y'all to think we're selling out,
it's going to be a live thing, because that's what we do best."
So the line forms at 1:00 for a scheduled 3:00 shoot, by 4:15 everyone is
freezing to death outside and the line has become a mob (nothing attracts a
crowd like a crowd) So they hand out tickets to like 120 people and tell
us to come back around 5:00. Actually they start audience footage at about
4:30 and go until 8:00. We dance and dance, even the girl who screamed
"Don't do it" was there - if you can't beat'em dance with 'em. The song
was tracked about 15 -20 times with the version on the CD.
I was under the impression it was going to be a live, in concert type
video, but a girl I talked with inside, who claims to be friends with the
band (questionable claim, but we did see her walking around with LeRoi)
says that they are doing some really ecletic, abstract type of pop-art
concept video, of which the live footage would play a small part. She was
saying things like painted faces, bizzare lenses, animation, similar to
what the talking heads might have pulled out. Evidently they hired a big
production team from L.A. to come tape the footage. The truth is, we won't
know what it's going to be like until we see it (keep an eye out for the
back of my head - it seems destined for fame).
Unbelievably, after a full day of playing (well, doing a lot of standing
around waiting for lights to be moved, and cameras re-positioned) they
still managed to put on a helluva show.
November 18, 10:00
set I - continuation of the video shoot with full audience
Best of What's Around
What Would You Say
Satellite
Rhyme and Reason
Jimi Thing
What Would You Say
(there may be one other that I'm forgetting, but it wasn't anything
earthshaking or rare)
set II - Starts with video lighting (very bright, very annoying after being
in it all day, switches back to the "nighttime show" from the "kitchen
atmosphere" as described by Dave. He was refering to all the flourescent
bulbs around the floor of the stage)
(I didn't tape tonight or write down the setlist but, here's an idea)
Intro- OSW
Nancies - Warehouse
Say Goodbye
#36
Minarets
Jane
True Reflections
Typical Sit.
Billies
(of course the order is as close to alphabetical as it is to actual)
Watchtower
Ants
I could give more of a description of the video thing and the show, but I'm
pooped, and your eyes are probably pooped from reading all my B.S.
Goodnight,

Dave Shirt
dominic@raptor.sccs.swarthmore.edu Sat Nov 19 15:09:31 1994
Hello, fellow Minarets,
would also like to see it in a gif, if possible? Can you scan the design
when it's done? You would have MANY orders, I'm sure...
Hey guys,
For T-shirt ideas I am working on a design that has 5 rows of ants
and 5 ants per row. The ants would all be cartoon ants that look alike and
are marching. You wouldn't be able to tell them apart, kind of like the
song, "All the little ants are marching . . . They all do it the same way."
a band member. So far I've done the first row and I have the third ant,
dancing and playing a guitar. In each of the consecutive 5 rows, an ant
would be, for instance, playing the fiddle with his leg up in the air like
Boyd when he starts getting into it. You get the idea, it should be sweet.
the rest, but he will be smiling and holding an envelope in his left hand,
to represent e-mail. Tell me what you think?

Spoonin'
@uvmvm.uvm.edu:SREILI31@MAINE.MAINE.EDU Sat Nov 19 16:27:39 1994
I lost the address of whoever this was supposed to go to, so I'm posting
it here. I first heard about "spooning" this summer from a friend of mine,
although it was something I had practiced before I knew the technical
name. Spooning is, I believe, when you lie down (in a bed, on a floor,
in a field) with another individual--perhaps opposite sex, but I assume
it holds true for the same sex--with the back of their body notched into
the front of yours, and once this position is attained, you don't ever
want to get up. I'm not sure if this definition has anything to do with
DMB, but it's the one I'm familiar with.

Needed Songs
@uvmvm.uvm.edu:SREILI31@MAINE.MAINE.EDU Sat Nov 19 16:40:57 1994
Somehow I acquired a list of all the DMB songs that exist/have been
played, although I'm not sure how current it is. Anyway, it would
Anti-noise; Drive In, Drive Out; and People, People. Is anyone willing
to copy/trade tapes so I can here these? I haven't heard a Dave song
yet that I haven't liked, and most of my favorites don't appear on the
released stuff.

To the stud who sent me the uva show,
I was just listening to it and the b side is blank (jimi thing and on...) How
sad am I? If anyone in the chicago\northwestern area has it also, it may be
easier to fix than having to send it back to lexington. Please help, my
entire house has been awaiting its arrival (kappa).

Hiall,
I read here that From Good Homes was opening the Dec. 27 Atlanta show, but
someone else listed a different band (can't remember who). If anyone has
heard, please post!
Thanks,

Re: ?
malachi@leland.Stanford.EDU Sat Nov 19 19:24:56 1994
hey all.
This is in response to the ? of who is Anne. i would have rather sent
this directly to the person who questioned but i deleted the message
because of a momentary lapse in me brainage.
anyway, Anne was Dave's sister who lived in South Africa. She died a
while ago, can't remember exact month,but it goes without saying
that Dave was extremely knocked by this. Dave is way into family and
peaceful habitats when he has the chance to actually exist in these
psychological regions. so Dave dedicated "the table.." to his sister.
it gave me chills when i first opened the album to read the credits
and found nothing but a dedication to Anne. i guess Dave believed
that thanking anyone else in the "thank you's" section would have
detracted from who he really wanted to be remembered through this
album...his beautiful sister Anne.
Peace.
Sailing for the Sun,
CHA * *

It has also been suggested that Anne was killed by her husband leaving
two? children orphaned, but I can't confirm this. About the picture, is
Dave holding his nephew? And are the others in the picture of any
significance?

ANNE
chobbs@liberty.uc.wlu.edu Sat Nov 19 21:54:26 1994
yes folks
anne was his sister
and although i hesitate to discuss details about people's private lives
in public ...
it is true, atleast as closely as i can varify through friends of the
band and such .. repeated conversations and the like, ...
that it was her husband that shot her and then shot himself
and yes it is true that her 2 sons (dave's nephews) were left orphaned
and yes they are pictured on UTTAD
and ... i have only seen them once at Vanriper's Lake near C-ville last
spring, with his sister Jane, where dave dedicated the first songs to
them as it was the first time his nephews had heard him play.
hmmm ... its cheerier to think of dave the family man than it is to
ponder the tragedy, so ill leave you with that

minarants--
i was just relaxin, watching the sunset, thinking about what claire
would have to say about medical sociology (you know, to make my medical
sociology paper sound more ... lovely), when it hit me -- I cannot recall
if anyone has mentioned this, or not, (and if so, then I'm truly sorry for BW)
but I finally, after 3 long days (or so) figured out what one little thing
bothered me about the ant t-shirt thingy. The thought of little ants, all
neatly stacked in rows, with one going "nuts", reminds me just a little of
all those little bears, in rows, but with all dancing (and one holding a ____
whatever). It is the similarities in symbolism, that created this thought.
Even though, I'm not so sure what the dancing bears were ever supposed to
its just different enough to make me think this shirt would be ... nice.
So, (for whoever is doing the polling) put a mark in the pro-ant-T column for
me; I just couldn't figure out if this idea was in my head, solely, or if
once the ants get from out of heads, and on to Ts, if it will be more
aesthetically pleasing. Either way, I'll want one (but Ts are a better place
for ants, than heads, anyway).

dave, bob mould, pain, stipe, and turkey day
car3@acpub.duke.edu Sun Nov 20 13:29:31 1994
last night my friend sean and i went to go see sugar (with magnapop) at
the cat's cradle in chapel hill. bob mould can still rock with the best
of them in a pretty hard way (there's just something scary about malcolm
travis, the drummer, that scares me however...). there were wonderful
tunes aboundbut something scared me. that was the fierceness of the pit
that started right in front of the pit. it was a pit full of fools who
thought that they were in a middle school mosh pit, banging on one
another for the sheer point of beating you senseless and even
sucker-punching some people. that's just not cool. i hurt so bad after
the pit, and my man sean took off his shoe to find a bloody sock thanks
to the freaks who can't execute a proper pit. he also got kicked in the
face with a doc marten by some guy who didn't know how to crowd surf.
fate for dave shows with all of these dave-come-latelies who have come to
hear ants. that would not make cory (and probably most of the rest of
you) a happy guy.
there have been some posts of late comparing some aspects of dave to
micheal stipe and i cannot help but to say that these comparisons are
very true. for one, their stage actions. this little leg kick that dave
sometimes goes into looks so stipean that it is not even funny. we're
talking very turn you inside-out-ish here. there is more but i will not
waste bandwidth with it.
finally, along with my vote for the ant t-shirt, i wish all of you
minareters a holly jolly turkey day. just don't eat too much. check you
guys in about a week...

dominic@raptor.sccs.swarthmore.edu Sun Nov 20 14:19:10 1994
Hey y'all,
in one weekend (the Best=8A), I've been calling myself a "daver." I
thought it was a bit lame, but it came naturally to my lips.
I also feel that one need not call oneself ANYTHING, and those who object
to any sort of naming (i.e. Granny, Billy, Minaret) should feel free to
abstain. But those of us who FEEL A CERTAIN TYPE OF KINSHIP along the
net, and want to recognize that (like me), have every right to want a name.
I like 'Minarets'; for the same reason I like the 'Under the Table and
Dreaming' for an album title. You can BE playing under the table, as the
lyrics suggest, or you can be PLAYING UTTAD. The album. Cool.
The name 'Minarets' for netters (or all-around davers) lends itself to
usages like, "Don't mind the flames, it's just screaming from the
Minarets."
But I don't think, "I'm a Minaret," works too well. In that case, I'd
call myself a 'daver.'
I also like the name because it carries that religious tone that we all
seem to identify with when it comes to DMB. "I follow Dave Band
religiously," or "I worship Dave Band," or "I'm not worthy," etc. We
reside in the minarets.net. We visit minarets. We talk to each other
over the minarets. And we ARE Minarets. Think about it.
Although 'Granny' is one of my favorite songs, I think the name 'Grannies'
just doesn't cut it. It not only sounds like we're old, but it also
excludes males in that some people (not me, who sometimes logs on as
'Dancing Nancy') cannot (or do not want to) view themselves according to a
female pseudonym.
Thanks for plowing through my verbosity. Those of you who have read this
far need not reply, but I would like to know who you are...
laters,

As far as I know, DMB will be playing the Bayou in DC the night before

But does anyone know if tickets have gone/will go on sale soon or has it

Re: MINARETS digest 358
STU_RCTHOMPS@VAX1.ACS.JMU.EDU Sun Nov 20 14:27:08 1994
a member of the opposite sex, with your back puzzled(the
key word) into their front side. Or vise versa, with your
front side pussled into their back. I guess it is a uniform
pattern of snuggling (although I hate that word) with
someone.
i realize i'm prolly going to get flamed for posting this publicly instead
of relegating in to e-mail, so if you feel inclined to give me a hard time,
give _me_ a hard time, not the net. but i feel like what i have to say is
important to the overall good kharma that this net holds.
anyway, this definition of spooning troubles me. why do we need to include
the phrase "hopefully a member of the opposit sex?" this phrase immediately
connotes alterior motives, and i really see it hard to deny this. i also see
it as completely defeating the purpose of spooning. spooning is platonic,
and worrying about the sex of the individuals involved brings in sexual
orientation, and if you start worrying about that, you aren't spooning anymore.
i'm not trying to jump up and down with my pink triangle and yell "YOU'RE
EXCLUDING FREINDS OF MINE!!!!!!!" i'm trying to make sure that spooning is
kept at what it's supposed to be, an act of friendship and love, and not
a neat new name for foreplay. i can see how comforting it is to spoon with
if that's the only thing you are comfortable with, so be it. but let's not
define it as such, because it really puts an evil vibe on spooning that
doesn't need to be there.
oh, and "spooning" is a participle. that makes it a noun. ;)
get in line is a GREAT fucking tune. every time i listen to it i realize
that there is more to listen to. i've tried to pick it out, and it's giving
me more problems than so much to say did. it's so intricate and i'd really
have to say mind-boggling. this song has the potential to blossom into the
most amazing thing they've put together to date (except for blue water,
11-17-92:) if they treat it right.
