dec 28th??????????? i told you to let me sleep for two hours, NOT TWO WEEKS!!!!!!! but i quote the animaniacs.... BOINGY, BOINGY, BOINGY........ and before i say anything important, on the subliminal bidding of chardy, here's an imprint of my right eye, which was cut open, and subject to three hours of poking and prodding of the skilled uva surgical staff hands for the sake of having steel plates removed that look a little like this-- o-o-o not quite as dramatic as chardy's forehead, but hey, maybe i'm not as exciting as chardy. i got a watch for christmas. i hope everyone faired as well. i like my watch. but actually, the highlight of my christmas would be silly putty. i never had silly putty when i was a wee young 'n. by the way, clare wants to know if silly putty melts. anyone have any experiences on the subject? mail clare personally if you've ever melted silly putty. or if you know how to get glow in the dark silly putty to glow, send her a note. don't send me a note. mine doesn't glow. so i don't care. actually, clare just burnt the silly putty. according to her it made a "zoozzuurrrooo" kind of sound when it started to sizzle. tee hee. the pain killers are fun. last night when i crashed i started watching my brain paint images on the backs of my eyelids. saw the sun explode into many small iddy biddy stars. sort of like the intro to buck rogers. you know? just wanted to let everyone know that my face is allright. (not that anyone besides clare, boofy, ben, chardy, and a couple of others knew that anything was wrong with my face.) file requests will be processed when i get back to school, sometime on (or a day or two before) the eighththththt. there's bubbles in here right now. clare getting giddy.... file requests will be processed _next_ week. if you are waiting for the faq or lyrics file, keep waiting. (acutally, I'M NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE GETTING FAQ REQUESTS!!!!!ALEX?????AAAAALEEEEEEX??????????????????????????????????????) well, i'm gonna take some more (legally prescribed) opiates and watch the moon change colors........ tata.... ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ __________________________________ \_________________________________ i'm cool. i get to use clare's \ stu_rcthomps@vax1.acs.jmu.edu computer on break.... \____________________________________Top Permalink
i was talking the other day to a character who knows a bit about the richmond symphony and all (no, this horse is not dead, it's just been in the stables for a couple of weeks), and the ban against taping is based on the symphony players being unionized or something like that. i'm not really sure. anyway, looks like all joking aside, there ain't gonna be no taping whatsoever by us paying custormers type people, so if you want to hear dmb with the richmond symphony, either go to one of the shows, or pray, pray, pray that the symphony will release the show. the gist of the conversation i had led me to believe that the people in charge of the symphony will be recording the show, and that if they want to release it, they can. ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ __________________________________ \_________________________________ all i want for christmas is.... \ rick thompsonTop Permalink

There's been recent talk of the new video on MTV, then the possibility of an interview with Dave on NPR... Today, of all places, I saw Dave on CNN - it was part of "Showbiz today" or Showbiz minute," something like that, I don't watch enough CNN to know. The piece lasted only a few seconds, showed scenes from the WWYS video, and showed Dave talking - I'm not sure about what, I couldn't believe I was even seeing this. Anyway, they'll probably be showing the same footage for another couple of hours, I don't know when they show new stuff. I saw it at a little before 6:00 this evening, so you have a good chance to see it. I'm still shocked as hell... AndrewTop Permalink
ok-- again, after sleep and a 1 hour drive, this time, here's the list but with a couple of blanks (again)..... 12.28.94 Boutwell Municipal Auditorium, Birmingham, AL From Good Homes opened ?*, One Sweet world, song that jane likes, best of what's around, rhyme and reason, satellite, tripping billies, ??**, dancing nancies, warehouse, lie in our graves, jimithing***, lover lay down, recently****, (he called this) Come dance with me (after the show), Ants Marching * for some reason i only can remember that he did play a song before one sweet world, it was a slow one, but i cannot remember what it is called ** i don't think ive ever heard this song, but i was in the lobby...it's possible that it was #36, but i know what that sounds like, ??? *** jimithing was cool,,,,,,solos for all but stefan.... i think it lasted abou t 20 or 25 minutes **** recently with 'drive my car' intro show lasted nearly 3 hours again....not counting from good homes, who were ok again.... wonderful jam to end, but sort of boring other than that musically, this show was better than last night at the fox, but just barely, b/c the fox rocked too.... or maybe i was just surprised, because i have always hated boutwell. no, i wasn't just surprised, there were more solos, and more extended jams....what can you say halloween was especially cool, too.... i had asked him about that song the night before in atlanta, and when i saw him after this show, he said "hey man i hope you found something meaningful in halloween tonight, i just screamed my fucking head off until i couldn't breathe anymore" in atlanta, he said that he wanted to try to record it with steve, to get a "more demonic sounding recording, it's an old love song, afterall, you know" anyway, the funny thing about this was..... boutwell has only 1 entrance to the floor, and those stairs are basically the only things lit up in the place.... and when he started ants, i looked back, and the stairs, which were empty before, were packed-- you could barely see thee lights, all the ants came running in, and danced their little dances, and when the song was over, al l the little ants marched back out, flooding the stairs once again. it was really weird, i didnt know that many people could fit in the lobby. the floor was about 1/2 packed before the song, and almost completely full during that song....all doing it the same way, etc etc the only way i have ever gotten silly putty to melt was by boiling it all day in hot hot water....it does not mix with the water. carter didn't know they were playing on the 15th, but bridget asked dave about mentioning that we are driving to richmond for the show on v-day.... he sort-of there were more females in the male's bathroom during intermission, than there were males... mildly interesting glad to hear your face is ok, rick... well, that's the jist of it.... it was a fantastic show, sound wise gotta go home for xmas, finally.... see ya in a week ill update about the trees then.... not enough word yet plus ive gotta get on the road-- im already 4 days late for xmasTop Permalink

I really hope that this is the correct address to send postings. I am wasting bandwidth and sincerely apologize but I am still in awe after seeing DMB for the very first time this past Tuesday. Absolutely incredible. And on my wy back to the car, I met BOYD for one very brief but shining moment which was the best encore that could have ever possibly been. Now that I've encumbered you with that tale....if there is anyine who would like to trade tapes, I've got several in my possession. I should be getting a copy of the Fox Theater Atlanta 12/27/94 show if all goes well. I will try to respond to as many people as possible, depending on the response I get. I'm just getting started myself so I would relly love to trade (DMB, BT, PHISH, a bit of ARU). judy wu jw115@prism.gatech.edu =)Top Permalink

I went to the Charlotteshow last night and I have a few things to say in review I had not seen Dave in over two years, so it was an awsome concert needless to say. I now understand the problems with the crowds much better. I made my way up to the front but had to constantly worry about someone surfing onto my face. The setlist seemed to be a slight break from what I have been reading and listening to. Jimi Thing kicked ass and Recently was incredible as well(I think it was recently last or second to last song before encore). Is Leroi always so spaced out? Looked pretty stoned to me, but he did wail when he needed to. My only real grovel with the concert was the one song encore. I speculated that Dave was either still sick (complained of the flu) or pissed at I loved it when dave started talking about the just say not to drugs bit in bathroom thing, typical and beautiful davespeak, but very true at the same time Well better be going, great show and I thirst to see him again with BHT. someone send me a few spoons before i go to bed, markTop Permalink
12/30/94 From Good Homes Opened Seek Up Best of What's Around Song Jane Likes Say Goodbye Rhyme n' Reason ????????* Satellite Help Myself (Dangerous Hours) Jimi Thing Recently True Reflections (with From Good Homes sax player) Tripping Billies #36 Ants Marching Watchtower WOW!!! The band was very energetic and alive tonight. I was a little disappointed early on because the setlist was identical to many from the fall with the exception of the jam before Satellite. Dave said, "We're just gonna jam for you a little bit." If you've heard the Williams College show from last winter, Dave's riff sounded a lot like the live soundcheck they did there. There were some words, but I'm listening to the tape now, and even on headphones I can't make them out. Anyway, after Satellite the show SMOKED. improvisation. From Tripping Billies til the end of the show, Carter did not stop playing and the band went right into a very quiet #36 (my favorite), and from there right into Ants Marching. Lisner Auditorium was packed with a lot of teeny-boppers who were dropped off by there parents. I saw seven junior high schoolers get out of mommy's Mercedes right in front of the door. The youth of the crowd was a bit annoying as was the fact no one got into the slow songs like Say Goodbye or #36. Anyway, I thought the overall performance was outstanding (I haven't seen them since August, but this show was much livlier than the ones I've heard on tape from early October). Have fun to those of you going to Richmond. tonight and will have tapes of all four Phish shows soon.Top Permalink
Hey now, Clare Emily and Buford said they'd write up a long review of this, so I'm just gonna drop the setlist since I just got back from a LONG drive home and it's 3 am now. Good show, considering it was my first knowing some Dave material. From Good Homes opened. 12/30/94 Bender Arena, Washington, DC Seek Up Best of What's Around Song that Jane Likes Dancing Nancies Say Goodbye (cool Carter intro) Rhyme and Reason Unintelligible-lyric-filled jam- Satellite Help Myself Jimithing Recently True Reflection (with horn guy from FGH) Tripping Billies #36 Ants than one would find at Disneyworld, and nobody shut up for Christmas song. However, the band was on for the most part, and meeting Boofy and Clare Emily more than made up for the rest of the crowd. Hope everybody enjoys NYE safely.

ok. ok. first, i'd like to thank Boofy and Clare for making my friend Charlie feel at home at the show. of course, it's hard to avoid warm fuzzies in the presence of Dave Band... the interview went very well. Dave commented on UTTAD being #34 on the charts and selling 34,000 copies the first week with, "It's just a wILd kindA ThiNG! It's not cosmic." a few other tidbits, but it'll all be on the air (i'll post when i know when), so i won't go into it here. if anyone wants a copy of the uncut interview (@ 30 minutes), i'd be happy to make copies. just hang on til i get mine, and i'll let you know if the quality's worth it. he was very excited about being at National Public Radio, cause he said he listens all the time. thanks to Charlie for getting him on the air! and the show, of course, was rockin. deciphered from Charlie's comments, 1. Seek Up 2. Best of What's Around 3. The Song that Jane Likes 4. Intro- Dancing Nancies 5. Say Goodbye 6. Rhyme & Reason 7. so called "Quiet Jam" into Satellite 8. ? not a new song [help us out on this one, Boofy] 9. Jimi Thing 10. Recently 11. True Reflections 12. Tripping Billies 13. Ants Marching ** 3 minutes of wild romping ** 14. Christmas Song (just Carter and Dave) 15. All Along the Watchtower unbelievable. if anyone has a copy of this show, i'm offering to spool my copy of the unreleased Rutabega studio R2T outtakes for it. or anything else you can find on my list. well, that's enough for now. i'm gonna go consume about three plates of Sagolla Special Spaghettis. mmmmmm. laters, y'all,Top Permalink
just thought id add to the npr thing npr, wherever i am, tends to run the only radio progamming that i respect .. yeah yeah i occassionaly listen to a few of the alternative stations But chances are, if im not groovin' on a live tape or a cd, im checkin out NPR. this was the case yesterday. i was sortof snoozin and sortof listening to ALL THINGS CONSIDERED,nightly radio news. and what do i catch as musical filler in between segments?? #34, just a few measures but by god,it was #34! so someone on their production staff has good taste...least i think so. and then .. driving back from a friend's home, i got a chancce to hear npr's WORLD CAFE. i ejected the tape and next thing i hear is "and from one of 1994's best new bands WWYS from the DMB . and i was like wow.. this is a national program! (yeah so is MTV) but this version is not on the cd,no Popper . . sounded like one of those in the studio live with DMB thignys, or maybe it was the track from the video,which i have yet to see. and of course .. the next band to be showcased was RUSTED ROOT .. all leaves me sayin' RIGHT ON NPR ..keep it up, and check it out so on that note HAPPY NEW YEARS FOLKS! best wishes and cheers catherineTop Permalink
silly me for got the point of all her babble GINGRICH and friends in congress are talking seriously of ending public funding of both NPR and PBS ... ceasing the PUBLIC aspect of these radio and tv stations, forcing them to become private entities. IMHO - this sucks ass so for any motivated folks out there that share this opinion, maybe its worth writing our representives, clueing them in just for goodness sakes, i hope the next thing on gingrich's list, besides a few million in royalties from his soon to be written book, is not the ceasing of public funding of the NEA. sorry if ive offended - or if you dont feel i should use this list to vent political frustrations. i dunno put "pox on me" .. i'll deal, theres a cure! :) now lets "CELEBRATE" -- kool and the gang? catherineTop Permalink
Several times I have posted messages enquiring if anyone wants to set up some DMB tape trades. Although I have recieved a few responses, I am still looking to do some trading. I have the following shows and am looking for anything and everything else, as long as it sounds good (most that I have seen do): 3/5/94 Craven's Hall TN One tape 6/26/93 Bayou DC 2+3 10/9/94 Lupo's RI all - 2 tapes 8/19/93 Wetlands NYC 1+2 Dave w/ Tim at Wetlands 1+2 10/26/93 Trax VA 1+2 Dave solo first part of set one! 12/10/93 Irving Plaza NY 1+2 7/27/93 The Flood Zone VA 1 tape All of these are excellent quality. I am looking for anything else and would prefer to do trades of about five tapes, but anything is OK. I also have 200+ hours of Phish and several G.Dead.

ok--- this is keith..... i could not telnet to my own account, but i can use my mom's account, right?.... nice screen name ma... anyway, a few things........ first, the guy who said 1 song encores were a new thing.......maybe,,,,,, voice isn't too fucked up, but he hasn't been playing too much recently, and getting back into the swing of things is one thing, but when he just screams his head off, according to him, it is nice to have a break before and after the song, where he doesn't have to do anything on either side of the screaming...... so i said, how about #34, 'ween for an encore..... he said that would be cool, but he was happy with the way it turned out, and i was too i guess, so i didn't have shit to say to that. possible they make it different than they used to.... she couldn't do it..... which either means that she didn't have it hot enough, or they make it different.... whichever...... i guess the true answer to that is, .... its already melted.. it's solid form occurs when you leave it out for 3 months or so.,....... havn't figured out the gas form though...... all for now..... i'll be here for three more days... so my address will be my moms until the third..... then i go back to school... :( i got three copies of the calvin&hobbes book. give me the books all the time...... maybe ill get a tattoo of Grant or Franklin next....... oh wait.. who's on the $500, kennedy....? maybe a tattoo of kennedy, next oh---- and i made my mom a tape from various shows.... her favourites...... pay for...., say goodbye, and halloween...... cool.... keith koliver1@ua1vm.ua.edu koliver1@ua1ix.ua.edu uttad@aol.comTop Permalink

Get In Line was incredible as usual. Dave cam eout smoking a cigar right before midnite and did a little countdown right befoer the started 36. Met Shannon Worrell after the show, which was killer, she seemed a little suprised that poeple had heard of her music and/or recognized her. Very, very nice and pleasure to talk to. nothing really random said or done in it. Someone got there tape deck taken. The lines fro beer/mixed drinks were LONG and the bartenders were easily influenced by cash, which i ran out of after the 54 ticket. I did not tape, but i know it will surface soon enough. The rarities is a little behind schedule, but will be done by the time teh rest of youal get back from break, i have to leave tommorrow. *-----------------------------------------------------------------------* |Chris "Boofy" Buford '96 | |cbuford@liberty.wlu.ed P.O.Box 322 4109 Park Ave. | |Washington and Lee Lexington, Va. 24450 Richmond, Va.23221 | |University | | "... and a pack of smokes."

GINGRICH and friends in congress are talking seriously of ending public funding of both NPR and PBS ... ceasing the PUBLIC aspect of these radio and tv stations, forcing them to become private entities. IMHO - this sucks ass Well, everything newt does pretty much sucks ass. hee hee. anyway, though i don't listen to the radio, i understand the importance of at least keeping SOME quality stuff (or stuph if you swing it that way, kinda like phishnet stockings) on the airwaves. At least in the big apple (bleh), radio is a string of cheese rap and top 40 throwaways. Lisner Auditorium was packed with a lot of teeny-boppers who were dropped off by there parents. I saw seven junior high schoolers get out of mommy's NOW WILL YOU BELIEVE ME???? No one would believe me about the 12 year old girls at Roseland... NO ONE! And now they've (practically) infiltrated Virginia!!! AHHH HA HA HA HA HA! Okay, so it's not very funny, but if we can't laugh at the downfall of everything sacred, what can we laugh at? Glad to see everyone had fun at the shows, though my crappy system hasn't gotten in anything in regards the NYE show... i myself attended 3 phish shows, and couldn't help but notice how much fun i was having, and you know what? the variety of songs really added to the excitement. you didn't know what they were gonna play next, where at the next dave show i'm pretty damn sure that they won't break out into Spotlight... and i bet dave didn't fly around in a hot dog last night throwing ping pong balls at the crowd... :-) happy new year, minarets. ben... just another memo from the cellar, ************************************************************************Top Permalink

guava. what teh heck is guava, anyway? i mean.. iknow it's a fruit, and i've seen guava juice, guava other stuffs but dammit?!?!? i swear i've never seen a real guava in my life. they don't have them at kroger. gotten in anything in regards the NYE show... i myself attended 3 phish shows, and couldn't help but notice how much fun i was having, and you know what? the variety of songs really added to the excitement. you didn't know what they were gonna play next, where at the next dave show i'm pretty damn sure that they won't break out into Spotlight... and i bet dave didn't fly around in a hot dog last night throwing ping pong balls at the crowd... :-) but i certainly must say that granny and lie in our graves were both unexpected twists. nice groovin songs. bouncin and shakin, huggin and singing. fun fun fun. should i do the one post, duel-show review of the last two night's shows? hm. ok. i will. as dear boofy and i decided at nye last night (this chain of events, and all time sequences could get kinda sketchy, so work with it as best as you can 'inside my head the noise, chatter chatter chatter...') ok. (rewind--------------------) as dear boofy and i decided at nye last night, we would have gladly been satisfied having paid for our bender tickets if the band had played the first 5 songs they played on nye, the night-before... it would have made it all worthwhile. but if we hadn't gone to the bender show, we wouldn't have been elyte enought to meet the illustrous (and fellow gibran lover) dave toole, the lolli-pop man, and his group of cronies who we ended up spending about the next two days with (we almost didn't make it, that mild three-car incedent out at lake anna was a near clencher, but we still love you dave, we do. give jamie and josh our hugs....). oatmeal cookies (minus the raisins, i hate raisins). this arena was huge (i think a sold out 6,000 seater can accurately be described as so) and there were many many young people. many. (did i mention that yet?) MANY! i mean, i'm not 62 or anything, but as an example, i saw a 10yr old there. point made. most about this show, i felt as though they had come to the show to party, rather than to hear the songs. (which gave them an immediate one check on my shit list) the intro to satellite was nice to hear. unfortunately (as usual during satellite) i took my bathroom break. while in there, and the first riffs of satellite began, i was waiting in line when i heard an eath-shattering shreik!!!!! (hark?) a cry of the song 'satellite' was scre3amed from stall #6, a flush then ensued, and a screaming arm flailing girl ran from the stall withought having pulled or buttoned up her jeans. she continuted to scream as her half-naked clad body ran out the ladies room door tugging on her zipper still screaming bloody murder for her favorite song was on. that about sums up the bender scene. but it rocked cause afterward buford and i dug around in the rocks after the show and we found some peachy-keen stones.. ehe hee....then we headed out to the lakehouse. oh boy. the lakehouse. fun. that's all i have to say. fun fun fun. from the malleable 'key' incedent, to the interracial donnuts. i had a blast. buffalo (yes pholks,buffalo!) new york. wow. nye rocked. chardy, less, bonaaaaaa, wade.... many friends were there to bring the new year in with. gray and i got there before the doors opened, and when we went to go through security they just let us through thinking we were in the band. no ticket flashing or anything. the show was amazing. the first five songs were total euphoria (and i don't use that term lightly, folks...) dancing nancies was nuts, and jimithing was about 15 mins long. it was great to talk to shannon worrell for awhile, she's a really nice person who's very friendly and down to earth. she hugged me at lest three times and she was totally flabbergasted at people beign familiar with her music. one of the funniest things was the guy who accosted gray after the show. and of course, chicken salad at the diner finished off the perfect end to the perfect evening. cabins. and we're chillin by the pool smoking marlboro lights and drinkin out of coconuts.' but then again, james brown kicks ass. love to all and a happy new year...

Nothing major, but the show on the 30th was at Bender arena, not Lisner as I wrote. I was there, I don't know why I wrote the wrong venue. Some people have said there is absolutely no way to tape the shows with the Richmond Orchestra. Well, were there's a will, there's a way. My brother and I have gotten patted down, been through metal detectors, and even had tapes removed from my body while still getting a DAT into a show where taping was banned. If anyone has good flat mikes, the place will probably be so quiet the tape would turn out great. That's how the Birchmere show from this August was taped. Somehow that show must get out. York this spring? There are many fans at Cornell, and other than the HORDE, the band hasn't been anywhere near us in at least a year and a half. Twice in 10 months shows have been cancelled, once at Cornell and once in Rochester. Just hoping.Top Permalink
first of all, i'd like to hail D. Gray Proulx as Mr. Cool of 1995 for posting not only the list, but the TIMES. for all of us who couldn't make it to the show, it was cool to see that #36 was over 9 minutes long! of course, there are 364 more days for someone else to take Gray's place... ;) show he did with Tim. he went on after Shannon (i assume Worrell), and my o OSW- Intro o Satellite o Recently o Typical o Minarets o Nancies o Stream [Tim's] o Pay4 on it. Tim RIPS it up on this tape. the OSW- Intro was not a typo; he goes right into OSW and ends on the Intro riff. pretty kewl. 12/10/94 (including 2001- Ants), but you'll have to send cash for our CD. it can surely wait, though. we have plenty! well, back to Sunday Night SciFi... -anyoneotherthanme ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ read. write. bike. eat. play disc. read. sleep? listen to dave. read. eat? surf the Net. munch. read. listen to dave. nap. read clare's .sig. eat. read. read. listen to dave. hear dave. write. read. repeat until you are content and dreaming (_I_ have been)... ---------------------------------------------------------------- Dominic Sagolla '96 dsagoll1@cc.swarthmore.edu Swarthmore College dominic@raptor.swarthmore.edu Swarthmore, PA 19081 sagolla@cs.swarthmore.edu ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Top Permalink
Happy New Year All, DBM crowd...I think I was the oldest person (22) at Roseland NY standing by the stage.I was surronded by a sea of braces and plad.... certain maturity level missing durring the show... The noise levels are very high...and durring the slower songs the noise levels can be annoying and somewhat overbearing... If anyone taped the 30th show it seemed amazing I'd love to get a copy if you have the time... Good Luck in your New Year.. PerryTop Permalink
I think I was the oldest person (22) at Roseland NY standing by the stage.I was surronded by a sea of braces and plad.... Not really that there is anything wrong with this but there is a certain maturity level missing durring the show... some of the shows. However, I don't think that is can be attributed solely to the younger audience. At the last DMB show I went to, my friends and I, all around 17, were practically the only one's not jumping into each other like a bunch of fools. Just goes to show you that some of the older audience can act immature too...Top Permalink
alright I'm only going to mention this one more time but the Bender crowd was terrible. does anyone else wish that all the twelve year olds and asses would stay at home. I wish the good old days of small crowds was back. Christmas song was terrific but half the crowd was only there to here UTTAD stuff. The jam wasworth hearing. Also some very insightful thoughts sprang to mind about electrons valence shells and fall back again. munch.Top Permalink
I think I was the oldest person (22) at Roseland NY standing by the stage.I was surronded by a sea of braces and plad.... Not really that there is anything wrong with this but there is a certain maturity level missing durring the show... I must certainly agree that there is a maturity level missing at some of the shows. However, I don't think that is can be attributed solely to the younger audience. At the last DMB show I went to, my friends and I, all around 17, were practically the only one's not jumping into each other like a bunch of fools. Just goes to show you that some of the older audience can act immature too... yea...but see, its not the point that the younger people are at dmb shows jumping into each other. it is more the point that, there are many more younger people at the shows. AND it is also the point that the crowd (as a whole) is getting irritating---jumping everywhere, etc. if you want to take it even further, in atlanta, and in birmingham, i did not see too many younger DRINKING people who weren't acting like assholes. but before i get a lot of messages saying, "hey , i m 16 and i was ripped, and im not an asshole", just think about how many ways we can look at this..... i was in the south both nights..... i was comparing the audiences to audiences like when i saw dmb in oct of 1993, and so on... there's sometyhing you cannot really do. i think they have gotten worse, and i think they have gotten younger, and i think they have gotten _way_ less respectful, but thats just the way it is... down.......some people don't. its just too bad winger isn't touring anymore. seriously, i know they enjoy themselves when they hop up and down..... what i hop up and down in the front row, always over 6'5" what is happening to the youth of america that is causing them all to be taller than me and in the front row, and giving them the desire to hop up and down!!!!! whats in the water serious questions from under the table.... keithTop Permalink
i saw a 10yr old there. point made. in birmingham, i saw 4 or 5 carloads of little pudgy-cheeked dreams dropped off at boutwell auditorium..... i didn't keep the official count as i was enthraled with my smoking cigarette, but i did see that one car was replete with 11 year olds (no, not sarcastic this time, .... 11-- really 11).. over to see that the mommy in question looked no older than I. oooo i'm not 62 either, but AT LEAST MY MOM IS CLOSE. shit... where's the lakehouse, i need another cigarette keithTop Permalink

the way home ffrom work, and I do agree that it is probably the best thing on the radio today. But to think that DMB and ROOT amde it on NPR blows my mind, I have even more respect for the program. So if someone out there by any chance taped the show I would love to trade. I have tons of root (including thier NYE show two nights ago), dmb blues travler, and much much more.Top Permalink
God....what a show.. I just have to say that I really really had a wonderful time...One of the best new year's that I have had in a long time. Full of surprises...seing friends that I have not seen in a long time....Hearing songs that I have not heard in a long time...Surprised to not meet anyone on minarets...I guess I din't look hard enough..sorry I missed you all. Felt very underdressed..Felt very silly that I didn't know It was semi-formal..I was really excited to hear two-step...As soon as I saw Boyd place his fiddle in git-position I screamed out! TWO-STEP!.....noone believed me... The flute jam in say-goodbye was cosmic...sent me flying...it's my favorite song...I spent the night screaming for spotlight...I felt bad later because once when I started screaming for spotlight a girl next to me heard me and said "yeah! SATTELITE!" and I recoiled in horror and said "NO!! Not SATTELITE! SPOTLIGHT!" and she just looked at me blankly like, "no..where at a dave MATTHEWS show.., I don't know where you are.." and I just sighed and swayed along to the crowd as the opening riff of satellite sent the girls screaming... ah well..at least he played lie in our graves...and #36...and a long Jimi thing.. Thanks for a great evening everyone... Oh yeah...3rd street IS really good coffee...great omellette.Top Permalink
okay kids, time to break out all your tapes just to help little ol' me i-denti-fy one of 'em, 'kay? here we go... 2 step lover lay down the maker recently blue water song that jane likes jimi thing (this is where my tape flips...) nancies minarets angel from montgomery warehouse so much to say watchtower satellite BEACH song, we've been at the BEACH, this is a BEACH song... helllooooooo' pretty wacky stuff... he talks about the beach some more, especially, i believe, durng watchtower. peter was still in the band at this time, which i guess is pretty obvious from the setlist. besides that there is very little to say about it except that recently is really kickin' and during jimi he introduces everyone (though my tape gets cut before he can announce the whole band), and each member in turn takes a solo. if anyone can help me, uh, send me mail & stuff... :) a 2 step / lover beginning to a show is probably pretty rare, so that might help by itself. i feel like breakin out sumthin new... not that i might not go back to lil' jacky k. if i get bored with ee... ben just another memo from the cellar, ************************************************************************Top Permalink

hi hi and love to all. hugs to all. happy new year cheer to all. hee hee i'm so giddy. i'm such a silly girl. i just wanted to let everyone know about an awesome band. they're called 'scratchin jones' and they're based out of my old hometown of dear richmond, va. they are amazing.... three guys. one on percussion (drums, but not the carter kind.. bongo drums, KICKASS drums) and one gentleman on guitar and another on bass guitar. quite cool. they play some covers (last show i saw them at they played a a couple phish covers, cavern, and they dedicated 'my sweet one' to me.. awwww.. isnt' that sweet? [clare blushes] and i remember in particular one awesome widespread cover though the name of the song escapes my memory at present time.) regardle3ss, they kick ass... quite intense and amazing... and one of the memebers (who else but the percussionist/bongo-boy, chardy, himself!!!) so if you're in richmond on thursday nights, go down to awful arthurs and check them out.. i'm sure chardy could post some of their other dates if someone requests so ever so politely and offers him some kind of bribe.. maybe a cigarette... or soem coffee or a kind veggie burrito. hugs and light, love and jubilance, being domestic... clare emily ******************************************************************************* *******************************************************************************Top Permalink
Hey there everyone- show, and would like to trade for it(even though I only have a few nice tapes), but would be willing to tree it if someone would set me up with a nice seed. Write back if anyone feels like helping me and others out.Top Permalink
....is cool if its done respectful..... Remeber when everyone at Trax would jump up and down to the Two Step rythm. Kinda like that Phish thing when everyone drops on the floor. Or boot stamping to ants....well anyway..... jumping up and down is ok if you know why you're doing it. I jumped up and down a bit when dave pulled out Help Myself at Bender, and i think everyone around me thought i was nuts. I miss being 25 feet away from the stage the maximum distance you could be, but you cant play the Flood Zone forever. I dont expect everyone to know every song, and i realize its kinda hard to keep an entire auditorium of 5000 quite for xmas song, but some in the crowd, regardless of age or intoxication, seem like they dont come for the music, nor respect the band. but then again NYE ROCKED!!!! so it made up for it.... *-----------------------------------------------------------------------* |Chris "Boofy" Buford '96 | |cbuford@liberty.wlu.ed P.O.Box 322 4109 Park Ave. | |Washington and Lee Lexington, Va. 24450 Richmond, Va.23221 | |University | | "... and a pack of smokes."

Hey all. I heard DMB on 99x in Atlanta for the first time early last week. The funny part about it is the DJ said " we don't know who this band is but they sold out the Fox so if I get some requests I will play them." For those of you who don't know about 99x, they play mainly MTVish and early 80's cheese. The next couple days I heard WWYS four or five times a day. Just a scarry fact. TreyTop Permalink

I've got to put my little bit in about the Bender show. The crowd surfing has been covered, the young persons topic has been covered, the talking during the slower songs has been covered. Now I've got to add my little beaf about the guy behind me who obviously knew Dave Matthews well because he friggin' screamed the lyrics to every song. He was (I think) a little intoxicated (there was a small bottle of jack daniels at his feet), which is ok by me, but he was singing way loud right behind me. I mouth the word myself (or at worst mumble the lyrics), but this guy was pretty anoying. Anyway, I found myself closing my eyes so I wouldn't have to get pissed off even more watching all the people crowd surf and sit on each others shoulders. Closing your eyes is a good way to get into the music and absorb it all anyway. (But you don't get to watch Dave dance or Boyd grin when he jams) (Damn I wish I could dance like Dave!) Also, I wasn't impressed with the acoustics of the venue. But, the days of the Bayou and similar places may be past. Sorry if this contained some negativity, but I had to vent a little. --MorganTop Permalink

im not quite sure that im ready to join the bandwagon and write a complaint about youngin's at the shows. although, obnoxious fans are well, obnoxious. but i was thinkin' instead that its really funny, cool, and scary (all at once) that DMB might be the next NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK (cause y'all are definately making it sound like the kids are just as stir crazy) ... now please dont think im comparing the bands musically (im not looking for any bickering) atleast we donthave to worry about improving the lil' ones taste.. just their ettiquette. play a little .. never hurts to remember we're all kids catherineTop Permalink
About the young crowd that Dave is attracting. It is more of a fad for them. They don't really love the music, just the fact that it's cool to go to a Dave concert. Either Dave gets really rich and we live with all the crowd surfing etc. or the fad dies out, and we support Dave and all his music in peace. the music. Hopefully (for those of us who miss the small concerts where we could chat with Dave and not be molested*) the teeny-boppers will dish out enough cash and move on. The only thing that could keep those kids is if Dave put out another CD in the next few months, but then again if they start writing again, who cares about the teeny-boppers! later, Dave Anderson * I tried to visit with Dave before the show (Dec 30) just to say hi, (I met him on a ferry ride this summer) and two guys, I don't know what they were security or press, just grabbed me and pointed me towards the stairs. I wasn't even drunk then! That little incedent really scared me. anyone out there with a tape of DEC 30? I have 8-28-1994 and10-12-94 for trade. - about 10-12-94, anyone have a set list?Top Permalink
If anyone has the "What would you say" video on tape (esp if you're in Cville, or Central VA at least), I'd love to borrow and see it. To remind, this was filmed at GA Theater, right? Actually, the video was taped at the Fox Theater in Boulder, CO on Friday 17,1 994. I went to the Thurs. night show and Dave announced that they would be taping footage for their first video the next afternoon, and for everybody to show up for the taping. Of course, I could still be wrong, I haven't seen the video yet, I have this allergic reaction to eMpTyV. So as far as I know, it was the Fox and not the GA. JohnTop Permalink
but i certainly must say that granny and lie in our graves were both unexpected twists. nice groovin songs. bouncin and shakin, huggin and Listen Clare... WAS THERE OR WAS THERE NOT A GIANT HOT DOG THAT DAVE & THE BOYS RODE AROUND IN THROWING PING PONG BALLS AT THE CROWD AND PLAYING "AULD LANG SYNE" AT THE MARRIOTT????? heh heh a show he did with Tim. he went on after Shannon (i assume Worrell), and my wow what odd luck, as i heard this for the first time out of emily's collection on the train to boston! hee hee. it's 7/26/93 I believe. Wow, that's really weirdo that you just asked that now... there is some funny dave talk on that right before OSW, as you can tell how little dave knows about music theory, because he's talking to tim and going "this is in Eb or, well, Cm? there's a C something in there... a C something... and maybe the song is in Bb" it's hilarious... I, all around 17, were practically the only one's not jumping into each other like a bunch of fools. Just goes to show you that some of the older audience can act immature too... Oh most definately. most of you probably know by know that i'm 16, and i'd say i have much more respect for others around me at shows than most of the college kids do. this isn't to say that there AREN'T 12 year old girls screaming for 'satellite', but just because you aren't in college doesn't mean you aren't mature... The Screen Saver is a series of pictures of the band members flashed aroudn the screen randomly. The pictures are interesting, good faces, great colors, suprisingly good quality, fun, and better than those damned flying windows and rotating "mystify" line things. Hmmmmm, I have the screen saver, and i'd say it's pretty much a piece of crap. It's not like they charged $50 for it, but it was definately below my expectations... They have one picture of the whole band. Then they flash cut outs of each band members face. Repeat this. There is the screen saver. That is all for now. If you've read this whole message, send me mail saying "I can't believe i read the whooooole thing!!" It will make me feel appreciated. huh huh. ben just another memo from the cellar, ************************************************************************Top Permalink

BTW, you are right about 99X, it started out pretty cool, playin' lots of alternative stuff and what not, then, all of a sudden, here comes resurrection sunday (god, what a terrible show) and hours of smashing pumpkins, green day, and various other pre-teen idols...

11/17/92? I don't know how I feel about all these reported teenagers at the show over the weekend. On the one hand, it saddens me that Dave is such a faddy type thing now and I hope it doesn't hurt the band by driving away people who really dig him. On the other hand, some teenagers have pretty advanced musical tastes. My sis is 17 and a senior in high school and is really into Phish and the Dead and DMB. Of course, she is able to appreciate the music and not the coolness of listening to them. Hopefully it will all fade away. The new disc, BTW, is on sale at MusicLand for $10.99.

The under twenty-one crowd is getting a very bad rap. Don't blame us for the behavior of those, young and old, who have heard a song from UTTAD and decide to use a DMB concert as an excuse to get drunk. Dave has a very large and loyal following among minors who go to see a DMB concert for the music. It is stupid and dangerous to stereotype an entire generation. I have been to several dave concerts and seen people acting like morons who are well into twenties and thirities. Anyway, on the concert front I here the Big Head Todd and Dave Matthews are planning on playing three dates at Reds Rocks Amp., thats about 27,000 tickets. Red Rocks is one of the greatest places in the nation to see a concert. However, this is very unconfirmed. Speaking of rumors, I heard from a relitive in Virginia the idea for "Say Goodbye" came from incident that occured between Dave and Peter, which resulted in Peter leaving the band. Sounds very fictional, can anyone confirm.......Top Permalink
Tommy, I am so god damn sorry, I don't have your address right now on e-mail nor do I have your home adress(Tommy Burnett?).

Hey, and for all you out there, including emily(not clare emily) but you can include her too, where are you? I would love to hear about the shows you saw over NYE. I am still pissed about not seeing them, my friends are probably pissed off too that I couldn't go. Sorry Pad and Jeff. It sounds like the two shows on the 30th and 31st were amazing. I just felt that it was necessary to spend some time with my mother. Hey emily, I'm not leaving for the semester at sea until the 25th, and my buddy and I are thinkin' about making a few road trips, nothing special though, and we might be swingin' by Maine.

At the Charlotte show, I allowed one of my friends talk me into trying crowd surfing. I cannot see how people can enjoy his music with their ass being grabbed and being hit in the balls. Do you agree? I got dropped and my ass still hurts. Thats what I get for giving into pier (Spelling) pressure. I also admit I was a bit intoxicated, but not sloppy. The extent of my jumping was at the begining of song #36. I wasn't 3 feet off the air which youall make it sound like some did. As for the tobacco incident, it was a misunderstanding, and if I saw Dave I would appologise. Do youall think you can forgive my mistakes. Finally Does anybody have the Raleigh boot with widespread where Boyd jams with them. I would also like their set if possible. Thanks Clarke Browne "Can't we all just get along"Top Permalink

although i have been observing through the net for a few months now, this is the first time i have been prompted to write. i am relatively new to dmb (10 shows in two years),but i have been to nearly 100 concerts in the past 15 years. I can honestly say the nye crowd was the rudest and most obnoxious crowd of recent memory (which is fairly limited) i am 29 years old,so i would love to blame it on the youngsters, but i had run-ins with assholes of all ages. i believe 70% of the crowd was there to party with dave being just a background band.....i too did not know this was a semi-formal event but i do know that when i go see a remarkable band such as dmb,, i like to dress casually, i already get the undistinguished honor of wearing a suit and tie monday thru friday.... it just goes to show that the more people try to act like they have class, the less they actually display.....Top Permalink
my location has not been accessible for the past few days, soo here's a late assessment of bender aaand nye. i had a dream that i was one of the lolli-pop clan with a lolli-pop eating disorder. clare-the good witch what'shername, boofy-the scarecrow, and i were on a joyous journey to reach the emerald marriot. along the way we encountered the evil key witch with her body surfing monkey things. the evil witch hurled twelve year old girls at us. :( but we used our magic safety pops to fend them off with smiles. :) upon reaching the emerald marriot, we stood before david matthews-the wizard of ahhhhhs. .........:) he rewarded our long journey with a rare and precious setlist and told us that all we needed to get home was ........... just then i was awoken by the annoying twitches and shakes of a sugar overdose. i looked around and saw lolli-pop sticks and wrappers all around. and there to my surprise was a copy of 'the prophet' by kahlil gibran (read it) so i read into the night and pondered if i'd ever be lucky enough to return to that wonderful place. thanks clare and boofy for the dream inspiration hugs to you all -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------Top Permalink
Hey all, I just erased all 277 messages since Dec. 15, so I don't know if this was mentioned, but UTTAD was listed as part of a small (less than 10 or so) group of the top releases of 1994 in the Wall Street Journal. My Dad cut it out for me (cool Dad). Anyway, I have no idea what I did with it, but if I find it, I'll let you all know what was said.

Anyone who will work in mass transit, look at DC's Metro. It rocks! [ if only it ran all night, I wouldn't have had to drive out to the show] DMB content : Charlotte did in fact rock!! Nice minarets jam[ Dave heard it in the parking lot that afternoon and walked over incognito and hung out and said something about it in the show.] really good stuff. Hello to all those "People by the Board." You know that's a good movie title. classic tale of youth horror in which the main character gets attacked by a crazed sound manager. I got to meet the immortal Bagby! I was stoked. Anyway, sorry to post for so long, but I don't get access that much. ahead and send whatever you've got. I check my PO Box while I'm gone and it needs to be filled with your cool tapes!! Anyway, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Gotta run!

Well, so I was a little out of touch over the holidays, but I was astonished to see "What Would You Say" on MTV last night! Yeah, DMB video! I hadn't heard that this was a plan or anything. All of the sudden last night I'm hearing something familiar in the background and I look over at my TV and their are Dave and the boys on MTV! Kinda fun. It was at 1:45 central time in case anyone was dying to know. Am I the first to see this? Was this a first? I thought that I was on top of things, but this caught me by suprise!Top Permalink

I am wondering if anyone out there in Minaretsland can help me. I recently acquired a tape of the 1/5/92 Ga.Theater show in Athens. There is a keyboard player an someone on harmonica (not popper). Can someone help me identify?? If you can, maybe I'll toss a tape in the mail for you or we can trade from my little list..............I'm going to Richmond!!Yippeee!!! judy wu jw115@prism.gatech.eduTop Permalink
Hey, hey, hey, able to get 'ahold of a computer till now, so, i'd like to throw a few comments your way... both. I hope to run into you two many more times to come...why don't you guys visit this summer in Jackson Hole, WY? ski in june, ride a horse, swim in a spring fed lake...i'll stop. marriot, all the while the silver sparrow stalled just as we pulled in...how timely. i don't know if anyone stayed in the marriot that night but if they did....elevators that go up but don't go down? Didn't the wine taste like a wine cooler, and two different color tickets????! gee, there were many times i went up throwing a blue ticket in the bar tenders face when i was told i needed a RED ticket....arrrrgggh! show i saw was in Lousiana and it was good, no it was great, but sort of mellow, this show was intense...and fantastic...didn't you guys think NYE came and went, i mean the 10, 9, 8...deal? I thought it was stll 11pm...like Dave was pulling my leg..nope. them in one of their home towns playing...and surprisingly, IMHO, the crowd was pretty good. from what clare was saying about bender, i was a bit hesitant. i floated around a bit during the concert, the back the middle, sort of the front, and no one was yelling ants, satelite, their were no 10 year olds, etc....one thing i found very, very funny were the over-protective boyfriends...ha, ha...they all seemed to have a little string around their girlfriends, like they were their bodyguards, not their friends...i think some of them missed out on the concert just to keep a close watch on their dates...ha, ha...sorry, i just had to mention it, it was a sight to see....well, enough of my endless babble, i should have put a clause in my subject like, delete this blah, blah, to save your time...i'll stop. on my way, joeTop Permalink
judy.. the keyboard player is peter greisar a member of the band from it's inception until (i think) march of '93 when his plans took him elsewhere than our dear damaba. it is also he who does the harmonica (no not on what would you say) but so much to say. maybe you might find the FAQ interesting.. you can http to it (the address hence escapes me) oh shit, hang on... all that guilt, i'll go look it up... or you can send mail to danial blanchet djb@mars.gtcc.cc.nc.us rick gives great x.mas presents. love and lunch (i' starving!!!!) clare i-love-the-secret-gig emily ******************************************************************************* 'i could turn and walk away or i could fire the gun staring at the sky staring at the sun... whichever i choose it amounts to the same.. absolutely nothing' *******************************************************************************Top Permalink

Hey people, Some person asked about Boyd jamming with Widespread. Is this true? I'd like to hear that. This reminded me of a question I've been wanting to ask. Any info appreciated, --MorganTop Permalink
hi im back at school...ooo i got to stand outside in tennessee when it was 15 degrees and smoke cigaretts in my boxers....i miss new mexico ---way too hot here (but its cool now) oh---i mean cool cool not just cool, yanno? jumping up and down is ok if you know why you're doing it. I jumped up ...much less, why.. to keep an entire auditorium of 5000 quite for xmas song, but some in the crowd, regardless of age or intoxication, seem like they dont come for the music, nor respect the band. it is the lack of respect that seems to go hand in hand with youngness and age....people were moshing to lover lay down, chris. and someone did a stage dive off the balcony.....i guess that would make it a balcony dive...(low balconies in birmingham---) during #36.....screaming and screaming and screamin ggggg ----) that looks lika a cyclops. and the flourescent light at work last night looked like a footlong hot dog.. and, people (a couple, anyway) had passed out, and slept through halloween im not saying intoxication is bad, but it's the teenyboppers who cant hold a shot of tequila, who are the most obnoxious at these shows.... Its turnig into a huge frat party insteda of a huge following.... anyway... does a live tape of scratchin jones exist?? :)Top Permalink
On the other hand, some teenagers have pretty advanced musical tastes. My sis is 17 and a senior in high school and is really into Phish and the Dead and DMB. Of course, she is able to ben pops into mind.....but if you are the exception, thats cool but lets consider the overwhelming rule....i mean, it's like someone said, it's not their tasts in question, its their ettiquite ...when sattelites is played, some people chill and listen, and some people lose their fucking minds....Top Permalink

I just think that we have to be careful and not automatically discount a fan because s/he is a little younger than us. (And honestly, teenagers aren't that much younger than some of us who can count on one hand the number of years it has been since we left teen angst behind) MelissaTop Permalink
Boulder in Colorado who was at the taping for the video WWYS....he said that they had cameras set up at around seven or eight in the afternoon, then they let all of the people in for that night's show, then they filmed for about an hour, then stopped, then they played without all those lights for the rest of the jam.....maybe it was filmed at the GA theater also, but, if i'm not mistaken, i believe that it was filmed in Boulder.......just my two cents worth....i'm not trying to pick any fights or anything like that! Adios......................mcl. If anyone has the "What would you say" video on tape (esp if you're in Cville, or Central VA at least), I'd love to borrow and see it. To remind, this was filmed at GA Theater, right? Ellis P.S. GO SEE DAY BY THE RIVER!! Formerly of Miami, now out of tAthens, I just spent time with their manager (Reis Baron) and am now listening to their 2-year-old disc, and its great! All those that think/thought Rusted Root or Solar Circus or Widespread are the shit should find this disc.

I don't think that anyone is trying to put down young people in general, but young obnoxious people!! And unfortunately the majority of the obnoxious people at Bender weren't even old enough to drive. Anyone else see all of the fourteen-year-old couples making out on the floor?? How many twenty-three year-olds did you see doing the same thing? I don't think anyone cares if young people go to the shows as long as they have enough respect for the band to at least listen to them while they are there!! KimTop Permalink
As I said, I agree that these teenagers who act like this are ruining things for the rest of us wholeheartedly. It's just that I've seen this kind of thing before and it usually goes from targeting obnoxious teens to all teens. The original postings about this problem seemed to kind of target all teens with the generalization that all of the kiddies there caused a problem. It is unfortunate for those kids who were there and who were enjoying the show in a civilized manner that they are sort of being lumped in with the cretinous youths who were there, too. I apologize for misreading the things people said. I guess part of it is just the overprotective big sis in me making sure people like my sis, who is a genuine fan, don't get a bad rap. Peace, Mel I don't think that anyone is trying to put down young people in general, but young obnoxious people!!

Hi all (my first post). Well, I read that one letter about young fans the other day and decided to throw in my two cents. Well, I am a 16 year old from Cleveland, Ohio. I am a big music fan and collector and talk to a lot of other people often about it. Well, I can safely say that only one of the many people I know have even heard of Dave Matthews Band. Why? Well, we have two "modern rock" stations in town but I have never heard DMB on either at any time, and I listen a lot. (hmm...maybe I should request them some day and see what they do...) Well, anyways, I luckily got hooked on them when I heard 'Jimi Thing' on the CD with the Dec. issue of CMJ. Heard the song, loved it, and had to get the tape, which I also liked and got the same day as Rusted Root which I heard on the previous month's disc. I know that us teens listen to the radio a lot but I can't see a big fan base growing when they are getting NO airplay at all (at least not in northeast ohio). This is a good thing to, because I can't name how many bands I have lost this way (and I don't care to get into a selling out rant now). but, bands just lose that special something when a lot of people like them. I for one, like music for the music and not just because others like them and it's the "cool thing" to like this band and that. It is cool to share a good group like DMB or RR with a friend but once everyone starts liking them, it's different. Well, look at roll on. Probably bored most of you to death but I just had to get this off my chest. So, to sum it all up, I don't see DMB as being a band that is going to get all the teeny bobbers and be the "cool thing" to listen to, so don't worry. Later.Top Permalink
I'll throw my 2 cents into this debate. A changing crowd will be a never ending "situation" ("problem" if you so desire) as long as DMB plays and puts out albums. No matter how much we wish it was not true, bands want to sell albums and make a good or excellent living off what they love...playing music. I am sure that Dave et al. would love to see UTAD be a number 1 hit and sell millions of copies. We are already seeing an influx of "new" people into the scene so they will have to play larger venues and it will only get bigger. The problem is that we always want "the good old days" to continue, but they never do. I know people who in 1971 throught the scene at Grateful Dead concerts was becoming too much so they stopped going to shows. These people moaned about the newbies coming into the scene and the Dead having to play larger halls. The old timers also thought the new fans did not "understand" the music like they did when they started seeing the Dead in 1968 or 1969. Today the Dead play to 55,000 people in large stadiums. My point is that all you need to do is look at other bands as an example of what might/will happen with the Dave Matthews Band. For those who were into the scene from the start it might appear to be going down the drain, or you can see it as yet another stage in their development. For the Dave Matthews Band to make it in this business they have to sell albums. That is what they want (otherwise they wouldn't do it). If the albums do well things will change. I hate seeing 12 year olds at shows, but there isn't much you can do. What do you think Nirvana felt about their sucess? The only solution is to stay out of the music industry (i.e., don't make albums), but that is a hard thing to wish upon a band. The DMB and all of us are going to have to roll with the punches.

i thought pooped, i mean popped into my head earlier this week...what do you think they are going to do with the video they shot in rich'd on nye? that could be interesting...or maybe they just taped it for themselves....just wondering.... The purpose of the camera was for a video feed for the large screen downstairs in the other ballroom. I don't know if a tape was actually made or not. It wouldn't be too exciting a video since the camera was stationary for the whole show. GrayTop Permalink
With all the talk good and bad about the age of fans in the last week or so, I'm kind of interested in the average age of our fellow minarets subscribers. My question for you is : How old are you? To hopefully boost the response, I'll make a copy of either set of the New Years Eve show for every 10th response. Please no grovels right now beyond that. You age will not be broadcast over the net nor to anyone other than me unless you decide to respond to the net other than me personally. Send responses to : grayp@pinn.net Thanks, I'll post the results in about a week or as soon as I get all the responses. Gray. -- I'm not from here, I just live here.Top Permalink
Hey, this goes out to everyone, as of late, particularly newcomers, who have resurfaced an old issue--- THERE HAS BEEN ENOUGH TALK ABOUT THE AGE AND SELFISHNESS OF THOSE THAT ENJOY THE DAVE MATTHEWS BAND. This subject has been thouroughly digested, scrambled, discussed, torn apart and put back together many months ago on the net. I hate to be the one to be the bringer of bad news, but if you want to talk about the above mentioned mommbo jumbo, try to make it direct to a person in order to avoid cluttering up bandwith for those that like to discuss pertinent information regarding the band(i.e. setlists, new info, dates, and other stuff regarding dave and the band.) That is what the founders of this net had in mind. There is no need for subjects that might cause bickering. P.S. You will notice that I expressed no opinion regarding the age of the fans. And, I only felt the need to say this (you may see that I feel a little bit too informative) because you all make me laugh when you talk of trivial matters. Emily, where are you?Top Permalink

who's this jane person you're pleading for help from? just send a damn msg to listserv@moose.uvm.edu saying unsubscribe minarets how difficult is that? maybe your hostility has caused people to not give a damn as to the path you and your computer email address take. a simple request for the unsubscribe instructions is all you haveever had to do. no one on this net has the power to unsubscribe ordelete you from this net, therefore, the power has been in your hands all along. if you had kindly requested instructions with a smile you would have gotten the golden rule reciprocated from me, as well as the other members of this net. you owe us all an apology. ******************************************************************************* 'i could turn and walk away or i could fire the gun staring at the sky staring at the sun... whichever i choose it amounts to the same.. absolutely nothing' *******************************************************************************Top Permalink
