so much for  a logical subject line.

anyway,  

guess what everyone?

i got kicked off the net.

did ya miss me? huh? huh?


turns out my account isn't big enough to handle this damn thing.


but i'm back.  deal with it as you may.


i have nothing important to say about damaba except that i listened to
some old bagby's last night.  listened to one i have from april 1993.


"i'm gonna ffffalalalffffall on my face pretty soon.  but not that i've
had anything to drink.  i'm perfectly sober.  but i'm still gonna trip
on my face."


"could i have been the king of siam?"
"could i have been homey the clown?"

dave matthews as homey the clown?  i think not.

there seems to be a book trend happening here.  my recommendations?

bloodties--ted kerasote
silent spring--rachel carson (changed our entire society)
desert solitaire--eddy abward


hello....can you say "rick is a 'bleeding heart' liberal environmentalist?"

more more more.   tell us more about your christmas break with clare,
uncle rick.



ok.

thought i'd share with the happy go lucky world some more of my experiences
during x-mas break with miss clare emily clifford, net-goddess, humble-may-
she-go shiny happy person that she is, and our freinds jeffrey "PENIIIIIIIS"
peters and our friend from new year's eve.  her name is candace.  


point?  this is essentially a persuasion peice on why YOU should come to
3rd street diner on february 14th b/w 5 and 7 pm, regardless of whether
your going to the symphony show, and regardless of whether you even like
minarets or our a participating person on minarets.  or sometthing like
tthatt.  

anyways....

got there earlier than clare.  the three of us sitting around discussing
matters of trivial importance, like my financial status (broke) and
candace's severe disdain for beer.  

and clare got there.  this was jeff's first "clare" experience.  i'll leave
it up to him to decide whether he wants to tell anyone what he thought of
it.  but it was definitely fun.  really.  it was.  if you don't believe me,



first and foremost, i got to see clare without her pearls on.  in public
place even.  people were offended and saying "things" and running around
screaming at the indecency of it all.  

but even better, clare got to see me with her pearls on.  that was definitely
even cooler.  so, nyah.  i got to wear clare's pearls.  i bet your not that
cool.

we also drank lots of coffee.  if you come on the 14th, you must drink lots
and lots of coffee, be very wired for the show, and never get to sleep that
night.  it must be so.  i, the court jester, insist.  coffee.  COFFEE!!!!!

good food, good freinds.  and good beer if your inclined (and rich).  

moral of the story?  don't roll tires onto the traintracks because you
may get to see clare without her pearls on .  




I DON'T FUCKING KNOW!!!!





this is absolutely the biggest banal waste of your time i've ever
contrived, isn't it?   WELL, THEN, COME TO THE DINER, FOR CHRISTINA'S SAKE!!!!

what does banal mean?

i'm gonna go eat lunch know.  

tell your freinds i said hi.  if they say "who's rick?"  say "gorky park
REALLY SUX!!!!!"

is a really hepcat kind of a thing to do on v-day.  it is.   yup, yup.
it is.

Hello all,
Drive Out, So Much To Say, Lie In Our Graves, Cry Freedom, Spotlight, or any of
the above (as long as Drive In Drive Out is included).  
course VA.  Let me know what you have and what you are looking for and I'm sure
I can set you up.  I would probably be interested in a one or two tape trade
only, since I am working on a decent sized trade right now.  


Thanks y'all!

This past Saturday night I went to see a friend's band, currently called the
Ned Flanders Band, although last year they were Whiskey Rebellion.  They were
playing at Pete's Monticello Grill here in Charlottesville.  When I first got
there I noticed that Dave was at the bar hanging with who I presume is his
girlfreind, although I am certainly not sure.  Dave must have said somthing
to the bartender because the bartender asked the band if they would mind if
Dave played a song with them (Wouldn't mind!).  So they said fine and he got
up there and did Watchtower.  It was sort of interesting since this band has
a different sound, being a standard 2 guitar, bass, drums, keyboards (my
friend) line up.
Unfortunately I have to go to class now, but I'll hit him (friend Erik) up
for some more details later.

I've never heard 'officially' whether these guys allow taping.
They are coming to Burlington, Vt on the 18th and I want to tape the show.

Can anyone give me some insight?

I've seen live tapes before but this doesn't necessarily mean RR 'allows' 
taping.

Hey-- almost forgot to tell everyone,

date added in PHILLY ( you know I'm happy about this!!!)
Sat Feb 11.  Front of stage standing and reserved seating are still
available. (i bought 8, VISA loves me right about now)

If you missed out on the 10th I'd get on this right now.  Sorry to people
at Univ Park that only get him for a day, but uh oh well....

peace,

I have called ticketmaster again,

i was told that tickets go on sale the 19th, again.

Also the day New Haven tickets go on sale.  (I hope Adam and Gavin are
expecially listening).

I did not follow up on the whole will they be on sale at Irving Plaza
thang.  I assume they will.
I for one, plan to be at Irving Plaza, well I can't figure out when cause
classes are just starting, but I'll be there dammit, unless someone else
(TONY?) wants to go there for me...bad thing about Irving is that you gotta
have the cash, which I rarely do, but ah well...

I think I'm having a pre-thursday Roseland party...you'll all get
invitations of course if I decide to go through with it, but block it off
on your calendars now.

Well, at the Lexington show, their policy was mics only...I think once

to get us the feed when Boyd wasonstage jammin with them, but alas, thats 
all. Noone had mics due to the usual lack of needing them, so thats all

Someone asked about RR taping info, I think.  Here's what I know.
The band does allow taping but only analog.  Actually, the band
doesn't care but the label only allows analog. 

On a side note, DMB is playing Syracuse at the Landmark Theatre.
I got to see this place for the 1st time (since I am a pretty
new resident) on Saturday when I saw Lawrence of Arabia for $3.
Anyway, this venue has got to be the most incredible theatre I've
been in.  Beautiful gilt carvings everywhere.  Red velvet chairs
with natural wood backs.  Mahogany and oak panels everywhere you 
look.  Chandeliers, the works!  Acoustically it's wonderful.
Not a bad seat in the house.  A real balcony and loge.  I can't
make up my mind where to sit now :-)   Tickets go on sale Friday
and I can't wait.

I got 3 people who are interested. So the offer is now closed.

Hey all!
I've been off the net since the holidays started, so I know this is 
probably been said a million times, but I really want a copy of the NYE 
show. It was such fun, and while I don't remember the set hardly at all, 
I know they played all the good shit. SO, 
I have tapes, a dubber, and the new sly "G" rate stamps if anyone has 
copies! Get back to me!!Thanks, Carrie

			

rick, i definitely agree about desert solitaire - the book that changed 
my life. this is by edward abbey for you pholk who do not know. i hope 
the eddy abward thing was a joke. i would also recommend in this vein 
anything by barry lopez, as well as mary sojourner, richard nelson, and 
john muir. 

middle of southeastern utah, instead of here in rainy gray nyc (although 
i do have my friends, my root on the stereo, and minarets on the mac here)

ben, marianne - do we have any final word on the on-sale date?
			

rick has told us all, i spent a week being exceedingly goofy with he and a
friend of ours over break.  I just want to add a few things to the mix that he
left out.

combining rick and industrial strength painkillers and a bookstore is a cool
fun time, so if you get the opportunity to try it, have fun!

singing "daydream believer" by the monkees at midnight on nye should be
tradition!  I want Dick Clark to sing it, and I want it now!

if you ever go to the italian villa in Charlottesville, make sure you get the
waitress with the ozzy tatoo on her hand and ask for your salad twice.

doesn't threaten your life.

when dining at the 3rd street diner, avoid the poor waitress who just downed a
bottled of nyquil.

1)i walked into the illustrious, anti-christ run wallmart yesterday...
in the electronic section...press a button to hear and see the hottest new
music....i had to do it, and there it was..
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?  what could you say, to that?
that video is definitely requiring me to view the rca packaged dmb in a rather
different light.  or darkness as the case may be.

2)i know that there's one person who hasn't received tapes from me because i
don't know who you are...so drop me a line (i know that you probably have
before, just once more...) i'll throw in some extra stuff due to my past
negligence...

3)anybody that wants to help me out with some quality wsp or the newer cry
freedom, i have lots of dave, wsp, bt, and one or two rusted root tapes lying
around.

stop posting this shitt!!!!  this is not the blues traveler net, you 
ignorant slut.  this is neither funny nor amusing, you are tearing the 
ass out of me with this mindless drivel.   please leave some space for 
fred house and mr. nim and nebulous ben of the cellar.
thanks for your cooperation.
			

I hope  that this comes as news to everyone.  I'll make this story long 
with the actual point in the end.  O.K., my girlfriend and I were driving 
through east lansing, Mi, when she hapened to see a couple of her 
friends.  Quickly, she pulled into a driveway and backed up and went in 
the opposite direction trying to catch them before they entered a bus.  
Little to her knowledge, it was a one way and we got kinda a kick out of 
it.  How absent minded.  Well anyways, when her friends got in the car, 
(they kinda irritated me-probably becuase they were kinda young and 
cocky) he quickly noticed my DMB hat and questioned me about it, asked me 
about bootlegs and such.  Well, as the conversation went on, he asked me 
if I had the new CD, and I said yes.  He continued to talk about how they 
got it and such and everything started to sound funny, like "live Lie in 
our Graves and True Reflections".  He didn't really know the names of the 
songs so I kinda improvised with him and told him about them and in that 
process.  He informed me that it was a BOOTLEG FROM AN ATHENS, GA SHOW.  
The cover is supposively blue with a picture of the whole band from far 
away.  I was pissed off!  Anyways, the moral of the story, there is 
another bootleg CD along with the Brown's Island show.  Oh  NOOOOOO!
			

Japhy, I'm one of the cats that is pretty close to give up on this tree 
because of it's longevity.  I've been waiting for,(how many months-2) a 
long time for my seed.   Anyways, I am also the fella who is leaving on 
the 25th of January for Semester at Sea.  So if any kind soul, who would 
like to keep this thing going would send a copy ASAP, I would make my 
given amount in return and send them FEDEX.  This actually might be a 
really good idea, hey emily or clare, do you have it?  I am high on the 
tree and if I don't get it soon, there may be some bigtime problems for 
the lower branches.
			

What exactly is TR3, pardon my naitvite?  Is that acuatally band baanname or is it 
an abrevreationbrevriation?

Mike
			

I've been gone from the net for a month due to Christmas break so this might 
be a questioned that everyone has discussed,  but how do you get the 2 
bootleg CD's?  I have the 3 released one's and have almost got myself a copy 
of the special one that Bama Rags sent to the radio stations,  but I haven't 
heard anything about bootleg CD's.  I would like the convience and quality 
that CD's offer thanks!

OK- I'll take this, cause I don't trust you all to be nice about it. 
Sorry. Plus- maybe he's just joking anyway. Don't flame.

Scott-

presence of such CD's obviously indicates that the taping priviledge 
granted by the band and their record label is being taken advantage of by 
persons seeking profit. As a general rule, tapers and others interested 
in maintaining the taping priviledge boycott such CD's with ferocious 
intensity- if too many of these appear, the logic goes, the priviledge 
may be lost. Financially benefitting from the generousity and talent of a 
performer without allowing the performer to benefit is a definite no- no.

That's all. Wasn't so painful, was it?

2 New Haven shows in 6 months. Happy Happy!!



			

Hello friends,
spin off a crispy leg to the first two people who can send me useful lists.
If there are a number of responses, I will boost the amount of winners. The
show is at the Trax on 7/3/93(date not completely accurate)
			

Hmmmm... I'm trying to place a date and venue to a DMB show in 
in GA a couple of years back.

Dave says, among other nonsensicals, "There's pink drinks in the back...
the bartender said they came from Hollywood... they're served in those
littly things... you know those things...  look like little beakers...
or condoms for small people... like me..." blah blah blah :)

Does anyone have this???

the book that has reminded me ..or taught me  bunches recently is  
the Little Prince  -- sure its a children's book ..but its theme seemed 
more relevant to me now than when i was 7, im not even sure if i liked it 
when i was a littlier kid 
but i reread it over christmas ... and all i need to say is that the 
little prince is one wise lil boy

it reminded me that sometimes adults miss all the beauty and truth and 
fun in the world.. i read it in one night before falling asleep
ummit was jsut cool to remeber that the child in me might see life more 
clearly sometimes ...

eek

the mention of another boot cd out there stirs my juices, and 
causes me to raise an eyebrow in an unfriendly fasion.

and unfortunately i have another story.

there's a  popular and usually reputable record store here in auburn called 
big beat records (mentioned in thanks in the AWARE II cd.)  in perusing 
the selection i noticed a tape of the dec. 5, 93 
tuscaloosa, al show.
soooo in my concern i asked what it was.
the store owner (left nameless to preserve his slimy anonymity) told me 
that it was a tape of the recently EP.
DEC. 5 -Ivory Tusk-Tuscaloosa,AL
he stared deep into my suspicious eyes and said....
i dunnno
then he smirked, turned and slithered away

which brought me to this question......
i have a tape of this show 
but how do i know that it was not taped from a tape that was sold.
boy this urks me and i don't really even know what an urk is.

well, if someone has an accurate setlist of this show ....i'd like it please

Hey now,

Shannon Worrel will be playing at Crossroads Concert Hall (& Sports Bar)
in Charlottesville on Jan. 20, which is this Friday.  Don't know what
time, but the rumor I heard (from my boss, who owns the place) is that
it'll cost around 5 bucks.  You should go cuz she's awesome.  In case
you don't know where CCH (&SB) is, just go to where Trax used to be.
Look around.  You'll find it.

Thanks for listening,

comes from the picture on page 2 of uttad liner notes of dave w/hand over head.
the area surrounding his hand (and hand) is even diffused by a pattern similar
to r2t cover.

yeah, i guess cause it's late and I have lots to do...really don't 
want to start classes tomorrow, dreading is pretty accurate.  gotta 
go, but i don't have to like it, so I am procrastinating, and a bit 
curious how it has come to be that in such an educated circle of 
sensitive souls no one has proclaimed the genius of Dr. Seuss, but 
that is perhaps best left to another time,

yes what I really wanted to say, is that the hand on R2T is quite clearly 
not the same as the one on daves arm in the UTTAD sleeve, and while i'm sure 
everyone is mostly capable of seeing that they are different hands (ie 
one left one right) i am bored and feeling didactic (whip out the 
websters, tony)...

and I am taping 11/9/94 dmb at lex horse, and I 
have to be honest...hey, uh, i think Rusted Root is pretty poor, give me 
a second set of Dave any day of the week, which i wonder if i'll get 
during this tour...everyone is going to do 2 sets...we're gonna get 4 
sets for the price of a ticket, yeah that would be cool, but is it likely?  
Probably get a long bender like set, which is certainly lovely, but never 
enough...so to all those that thought us dave fanatics were being petty 
about the whole headlining thread it has suddenly acquired a new 
significance in my empty belly hungry head.

Well, I paused and made myself wait an hour or so before I posted.  Still 
don't quite know what to think of the mini-interview and video on Darcy's 
Music on VH1....
Was it cool? I dunno, It was cool to see Dave sitting there all 
cross-legged and stuff, but the dude (whatever his name was filling in 
for Moon Zappa) was terribly corny and lame.  Using cliches like, "So, 
you're pretty far from home" and "So you're a Yankee now" and crap like 
that.  When Dave was about to talk about South Africa a little he got cut 
off by Mr.Suave Blond Interviewer in a rather rude fashion.  What else 
can you expect from a music industry that lives to categorize and 
generalize music according to the things that surround the music instead 
of the actual *music* itself?? *sigh*  
As for the video, I enjoyed it, but all's it did was make me long for the 
next DMB show...
What did you all think?

Hey there y'all!

I am just so happy this morning and loving music so much at the moment, 
I've just gotta share it out.

So.... first 5 newbies to e-mail me can send me blanks and postage and 
I'll spin copies of the 1/29/94 Dave and Tim R. show at the Wetlands.  
HAs Joan Osborne and Ruth Gerson filler too.  
OK?  Sound good?  If you don't hear from me, it means you weren't one of 
the first 5.  Wish I could spin 'em for everyone!

This 3rd street diner place sounds pretty cool, kids.  Wish I could meet 
y'all there face-to-face-like on V-day, but I've got class on Tuesday 
nights, so can't make the trip.  drink some coffee for me will ya?

Everyone read some Richard Bach, and Elizabeth Bishop poems too.

"our love is the every only god"

-Dash      :)
			

 
 anybody have blues traveler tour dates?
 

stop posting this shitt!!!!  this is not the blues traveler net, you 
ignorant slut.  this is neither funny nor amusing, you are tearing the 
ass out of me with this mindless drivel.   please leave some space for 
fred house and mr. nim and nebulous ben of the cellar.
thanks for your cooperation.

oh, aren't those two boys from duke so cute when they're having a
lover's spat?

Allright...here's the hypothetical perfect solution..
We all like the convience of CD's and usually the good quality.
BUT we dont want to support someone who cant even get the songs right on 
the disc by paying $30 for the cd. So....we make em ourselves!!
Yes....we collectively as minarets buy a CD presser, i heard there around 
$20,000, store it somewhere, and make our own cds, and trade em like 
tapes. In reality, once you own the machine, the cost of making a cd is 
2 or 3 bucks, some as price of a Maxell XLII.
ex
and has enough cash to buy a new blank dat tape.
or
some one has cd and wants some old tapes...
you send him old tapes and he send you cd like perfect trade..

theoretically no money is being made, and RCA should lose their shit.
thank god no everyone has a DAT, or they'de be selling those like hotcakes

anyways, this is purely THEORETICAL, im not gonna go start bootleging cd's
it just be cool if somehow i won the lotto, then i could make my own cds 
for convenience....

hee hee.. sub line is a little nina simone...
pop some in and sit back and relax with a nice glass of wine.

WHAT?!?! (you say)
CLARE, it's ony twelve thirty in the afternoon!!!!
'oh' i say..

ok. we're doing a nice reccommendations thread.
(gosh my head is bouncing.. i've got so many things i'm thinkin of sayin..)
ok. books. stuffs like htat.
ok.
as buford and joe said..
read 'the celestine prophecy' by james redfield. i made those two read 
it, and i think i've talkd about [clare counts on her fingers] at least 
four other people on this net intoograbbing a copy. 
YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED BY THIS BOOK!!! (rick is another story....)

another book.... 'mission' by patrick tilley... it's not anything recent, 
but its' the original book that changed my persepctive on thinking...and 
percieving.... 

and we can't forget the best book to keep your soul alive, 'alice's 
adventures in wonderland' and 'through the looking glass' (you have to 
read the sequence of the two. other wise you only take half the journey 
and you don't have as much fun and you don't get to meet the white knight 
and haigha and hatta...)

'barfly')... but i'd reccommend starting with 'run with the hunted'.... 
'henry' poems...

time... he was a prophet, and OH MY!! how according that one of his best 
novel's (not really a _novel_) is called 'the prophet'..... his 
philosophies can cause anyone to go out and smile or hug a stranger. 
wow.. dontcha just love love?

that done.... i've got some cd's to recommend, one is  ev erything's 
'labrador' and the other is  vicki pratt keating's  'blue apples' but i 
don't have time to give reviews for them right ow so i'll save them for 
another time.. but i just want to say that picking up either of these 
cd's would not be the least waste of ca$h.... good music, people..
on another note.. a silly quote from a fired of mine whence i asked him 
who christina was in one of his recent posts... and oh boy.. this response
just cracked me up... hee hee hee... 
hmmmmmm... i could reccommend another good book for people who think that 
women are of an inferior status... gloria steinem's 'revolution from 
within'... i've never seen a freud look so cute as when he was dressed up 
as ms.steinem.

ok. maybe i've babbled enough.. waith.. iknow i had more to say.. hm.... 
oh!! i remember...everything is playing in blacksburg TWO NIGHTS IN A ROW!!!!
wow.. you can all bet i'll be down at south main cafe.....

one more little thing.
712 people? wow. that many?! wow. hi everyone. i'm clare emily.

see rick jest.
see keith dot.
see clare emily be silly....
enjoy the ride.. safety bars are only for the cowardly... scream loud.

love and light, new ball-caps, 
funny looks.. and trippy black screens with blood red lettering.. whoa...'
clare emily

Oh it's soooooo nice to see you all again!!!!  I'm in such a positive, happy,
hug-yer-newbie kinda lovin' mood this semester!!!  Although reading the 400+
messages waiting for me was not so joyful, but I'm over that now.  I NEED to
know when Dave's playing on Letterman if anybody has any good leads (my dork
roomie goes to bed a 11:00 everynight and I surely don't want to miss this!) My
mail has been down for the last six days, I managed to get copies of Minarets
from a friend to bring me up to date but if any of you have tried to get in
touch with me personally (Dusty?) please try again. I got to see Gibb and
everything over break (how I love VA bands!) and my toes are tingling!  Just by
coincedence I happened to get a copy of The Celestine Prophecy for Christmas
(as well as the Tao of Pooh, yeah! Pooh kicks ass) so I'll make it a point to
read that since it has been recomended via the net. Fred, Dusty and anybody
else that I promised to send my list to, look for it tonight or tomorrow. Yes
I'm a lazy bastard, but what's the point of having things to do in life if you
can't avoid doing them, therein lies the fun. But rest assured, I'm more timely
with my trades. TRADES, I NEED TRADES!!!! Break was very dissappointing on the
trade front so I need to make up for lost time (OK Dusty, that's partially my
own fault) Che, I have your second tape from the Zolmans show done, yes I'm so
lazy I won't even walk over to your dorm to give it to you, give me a call and
I'll bring it over. Clare, I miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need a spoon and a Marby
to calm myslf down! OK, I'm ramblin', but everybody who read this far has my 
"eternal gratitude, this is a" message"of extaordinary magnitude!" Any body who
can tell me from what finger lickin' good movie that line came from will get to
choose a show from my list (if I ever send it, of course I will) Newbies
prefered but not required. Thank you again for trudging through this, bye
y'all.
"I normally don't drink and drive..."

P.S.- I'm goin' to see the Dead in Charlotte!
P.P.S.- Jeff's a wuss
P.P.P.S.-Why do I have this sudden craving for jellybeans?

For the new year, the captain has turned off the no smoking signs so smoking
has been reinstated in my messages.	
			

1)  a bootleg cd, by whatever means whatsoever on this planet, is never to
be referred to as a bagby.  never.  bagbys are cool.  bootleg cd's are
not.  remember this.

2)  if you encounter a bootleg cd anywhere in your travels, 


BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


AS SOON AS YOU CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


you won't be able to keep the cd.  you just need to get it off the market
as fast as you can because we don't want to lose our taping privs.  
send me a note, telling me where you got the cd, and how much you paid
for it.

i can then make sure that the cd is sent to the proper people to be 
investigated (such as the band's lawyer) and you will be compensated for
your troubles, including the purchase price of the cd (i'll even do all
the hard work behind finding a copy of the show in question and making
sure you get a good clean copy of it). 

this is very important, and a service to the band.  if we can keep the world
clean of bootleg cd's, it will be a much happier place.

Hey everyone-
waiting to hear back from a couple of people and then hopefully I can 
post the structure by tomorrow.  If you have any questions/comments, feel 
free to write me personally - please don't post to the net.  Until tomorrow-




********************************************************************************

I have two questions pertaining to dates of shows.  Does
anybody know the date to a Hollins College show in 1992.  The
show was unique in that the title at that time for Holloween
was "Sometimes I feel like a nut."  He says this is the name
right before he plays it.   
I have two songs from this show as a filler (one of the songs was
"Hey Joe"!).  Maybe its not from 8/21/91, but I am sure there
is someone who knows what I am talking about.  Thanks again.

Dave
			

Yeah...well

Yeah....

IM on a week break and will be in Richmond (my home) at not one
but BOTH of the shows......hehehehehehe
heh
heheh

sorry...i had to do it....

Dan!  Please send us our seeds.  I guess if we must we could try and get 
another seed for this tree?  Please help us out.  Where are our seeds!

Peace & Out...

Listen to Phish, walk around and sleep alot.

			

1) books;
....and ondaatje kicks lyrical music in any of his books... 
....for poetry lovers...gary snyder...


2) Martin Luther King;
Was anyone else pondering heavily this man of peace this weekend?

3) obligatory DMB content;
Can anyone flesh out for me more info on any new songs Dave played this
fall and winter. What else besides 'Get in Line'?

'take me to the river, drop me in the water, the water'
        Joe & Laura         

			

 Is DMB playing Philly on Feb.11?  If so could some one tell me where and give
 the number I can call for tickets?  Thanks...tom
 
YES YES DMB is indeed playing in philly on the 11th.  sorry i have not 
included more info sooner but coming down off vacation is not always easier.

22.50 with the fees, maybe a little more...I can hardly wait...
			

In the spirit of all the newbie offers which have gone out this week, I'd 
like to extend yet another offer to those out there who are just 
beginning their DMB collections.  For the first few of ya out there who 
respond (maybe the first five or so?) I'll make a tape for you of anything 
off my list--your choice. I'll mail you back by tomorrow evening if you 
will be getting a tape!  

Kim
			

 I have two songs from this show as a filler (one of the songs was
 "Hey Joe"!).  Maybe its not from 8/21/91, but I am sure there
 is someone who knows what I am talking about.  Thanks again.

I have this as filler too, same date, and I'm just wondering who you 
figure that is singing?  Nope, not dave, not boyd...guess it's carter or 
Peter...don't know peter's voice, and I'm looking for a second opinion if 
not a definitive answer.

			

Just thought that I would put my $.02 in and say that I am
really bothered by this cd bootleg stuff.  I just got back
to school yesterday and started reading all about it.  I
realize that there are persons on the minarets net that are not
the biggest DMB fans, but that read it because its
interesting.  I think that its great that anyone can subscribe
to this because I know I have enjoyed it and learned things
from it that you could never get if it didn't exist.  But I
have read at least two differnt people that are really excited
about getting copies of these cd's.  And I know that Adam said
that we shouldn't flame the people for writing these things,
and he's right, but I am hoping that maybe one more concerned
person might just strengthen the concept that these cd's are real
bad.  I don't know very much about how much control RCA has
about taping at shows, or even what its view on it is.  But my
personal opinion is that its only a matter of time before those
soundboard patches could disappear if more bootlegs follow.  I think that would be bad as the
DMB owes so much of its grass roots following to those
soundboard tapes, the same following who bought UTTAD on RCA's
label. These bootleg cd's could easily be the straw
that breaks the camel's back.  Please, those people who want to
get a DMB bootleg cd as a "collectors item" or because cd's are
more accessible to finding songs, you are going to ruin the
taping privelage for me, yourself, and
everyone else who listens to the great quality tapes.  Ahh, now
I feel much better for venting this!

			

What is the date for the NYC show?
			

 
 were driving down from NYC to the richmond show.
 
 Does anyone know a good place to eat in richmond?????
 
 I also might have extra floor seat for the FEB 15th show.

2) Martin Luther King;
Was anyone else pondering heavily this man of peace this weekend?

yes indeed, laura is on the bus.....winterson is an amazing writer not only 
interms of language, style, but content....man....really fine mind....rexroth is 
also a jammin poet...but he was in my 1000 others as welll...yes and

Well, define good...

1)Tobacco Company--dress up, big bill, filet mignon type place. Great 
dessert buffet.

2)3rd Street (previously mentioned on the net and site of teh Feb 14 net 
gathering)--good, cheap, and will let you hang and drink coffee for hours
chicken salad a must..Grilled D for dessert

3)Bottoms Up Pizza--great if you like pizza, unless your Ben Sterling and 
say "this aint New Yawk pizza" (just kidding ben). Relatively cheap, dont 
let your eyes be bigger than your stomach, 1 slice is 1/4 of a pizza..

4)Awful Arthurs--Seafood and site of Scratchin Jones on Thursdays  :-)
Turns into a party bar after dinner...do a Yager shot for Chardy if 
you're there....

All four of these are in downtown richmond, where the carpentere center

6th, but a feew more blocks over)

here so rudely shut down without notice.  Ya know, that was kinda like having

have forgotten everything i learned anyway.  well, without further ado....

always seek highest ground

never buy a bootleg cd

stay up until 6:30 in the morning with your best friend and talk about
everything you can think of.  The look on your friend's dad's face when he gets
up for work and you're still in the living room is priceless.

everyone's house would be a lot cooler if it had a twenty foot pink toilet in
it.  bow down to the pink toilet.  give in to it's miraculous powers.

never buy a bootleg cd

freak out a friend's mom by wearing women's hats and carrying around a tattered
yellow blanket with a cool name.  everyone's world needs a little shaking up

never buy a bootleg cd

if you ever have the urge to scream PPPEEENNNIIISSS!!!, do it while sticking
your head and shoulders out the window of a car going 70mph on a rainy highway,
preferably between richmond and charlottesville, it'll instill you with a sense
of pride.

it's not every girl who'll bring you lasagna at work

never buy a bootleg cd

stain your tongue green someday (come up with your own method with which to do
so)

never cover the light switch covers with wallpaper that perfectly matches and
lines up with that on the wall.  it makes it hard to find the light in the
dark.

have no clue what all this is about, but did i mention that you should never
buy a bootleg cd?

be obtained but Scott beat me to it. After being enlightened, however, I see 
why they are bad and I have a question. Can the stores that carry these CD's 
get sued or anything? If DMB knew where they were sold could they report 
them to RCA? Just curious, I'm not planning on shutting down any businesses!


			

Just wanted to let everyone know that as of Saturday there were
still tickets left for the Feb 15th show.  I would love for those
of you who thought they were sold out to get your hands on
some.  I don't know how many.  Give them a call if you are
interested.  (804) 262-8100

Sorry, but I'm going to have to close the tape offer now.  I'll e-mail 
the nine of you who I'm going to tape for. (I must be insane!!)  You 
should get my list within a few days.

One of my friends gave me an old DMB boot to figure the set 
list for him.  Needless to say it also didn't have a date
either.  Could some one tell me the date.  I am not finished 
with the set list, but It was at the Flood Zone ( that
narrows it Down), they were travleing to nags head.  Peter
was still in the band ( he said it may have been an 89), It 
was an all band Best of whats around, as opposed to solo
which I've heard a lot.  They mention a mail list.  and the 
of whats, People People.  Please help me

 1) books;
Yes, yes, a second vote for jeanette, i had forgotten and you reminded 
me, thank you

 2) Martin Luther King;
 Was anyone else pondering heavily this man of peace this weekend?
Gavin was, and so were the lucky newbies he reminded...

 3) obligatory DMB content;
 Can anyone flesh out for me more info on any new songs Dave played this
 fall and winter. What else besides 'Get in Line'?
There was something i never heard before i went to the 12/30 bender, its 
slow mellow rythms with uncomprehensible words, i don't have a good copy of 
the show, but i 
have fond memories, anyway i've heard of soundboard bagbies goin' round...

So I guess I got mixed reviews for my previous post about the book I found
that was edited by Dave's dad (not completely written) .

For the one who asked : it was called "Epitaxial Growth" and was part of 
a materials science series - a collection of articles on materials science

For the one who felt my post was unrelated  to minarets, I beg to differ as I 
am forced to pick through other band info and personal BS sent on minarets
which I find pointless as well.  Take my til and check the subject first, if
you don't want to read it-delete it.

I was just trying to add my bit to this "discussion on the Dave Matthews Band"
as the heading says :)

			

I don't read this anymore, so this may be old news. Did anybody
see Dave on VH1 last night?  They played WWYS Video and inteviewed
Dave.
			

I've been exchanging mail lately with a lurker over here, and it's sort of
brought things to my attention that i wouldn't have really noticed
otherwise... the feeling he gets that as a newbie (which he isn't, this
person just doesn't post much), minarets can seem cliquish.

that got me thinking.  and i can see his point.  i can definately see a
certain clique, made up basically of southern (well, pretty much virginian)
college students who have typically listened to dave longer than the rest of
the net.  and i'll be honest, in some ways, i'm a charter member of this
clique, though there are two obvious things that separate me (my location and
my non-collegiate status) from the, er, 'pack'... anyway, so i was thinking
about the nature of this little group, of minarets, and of the entire idea of
nets, or more specifically, musical nets and the culture that springs up
around them.

minarets is a special net in that, despite it's steadily growing size, it
stubbornly retains a happy vibe of familiarity.  we may not all have met or
be the best of friends, but we tend to stay relatively respectful and silly
with each other.  this, i guess, is in comparison to something like
phish.net, where there is a certain net.nobility of people out there in the
working world but the volume of mail on phish.net pretty much drowns it out
in the confusion... anyway, i was thinking more specifically of the nature of
the little clique thingie over here... i've noticed lately that people here
seem to look up to these people as Dave.Gods, and as some sort of group they
would like to join in some form... they are looked on as having some sort of
special access to the band and the music, when in fact, everyone here is
pretty much just a fan (and in fact as far as i know, all except for two of
them met on the net as well).  as far as i know, being sort of inbetween
'spheres' here (which is the story of my life, but we won't get into
that...), virtually no one here is best friends with dave.  no one jams with
carter on weekends.  no one ghost-engineered R2T.

maybe no one else cares about this.  i just find the whole nature of computer
relationships interesting.  i've met a growing number of people throw this
grey humming thing, several of whom from this here net (one of whom has my
damn blow up fish in their bathroom), and lets say it's a continuing interest
of mine.

if any of you want to continue this either publically or privately, feel
free... sorry if this sounds strange, i took way too much vivarin this
evening...

benji

p.s. and now back to our regularly scheduled personals...

disco dan- gimmee mail... i want to find out what you thought of luscious on
snl

keith- your sister is strange.

just another memo from the cellar,

************************************************************************
			

Lessee a few thoughts....
Dave (as a band) did not exist in 89, makeing a tape from then impossible

The ABC jam....kick ass, I love that jam....shit i should get that for my 
rarities tape, which is yes, still chigin along, 1 tape is done, maybe 
ill circulate that while i finish the second....

The jam mentioned at bender has grown out of dave messing around at the 
beginning of satellite. Its basically the same notes/scale  in a slower 
and different order, dave decided to add mumbling at bender :-)
who knows where this one will go...

Ben, Carter and I are related, just look at our last names.
hehehehheehe

A serious note on ben's clique post...
I would obviously fall into that catergory
a.living and going to college in Va.
b.living in Richmond (ie Flood Zone)
c.going to school and hour from Trax (to bad i didn't go to UVa)
d.first dave show Oct ?? 92

but i dont feel like i have any power or authority over anyone else.
The sir comes from clares net-knighting, which is just our silliness.
I hope newer subscribers (newbies just sounds so degrading sometimes) 
dont hesitate to ask the net, or who they think is knowledgeable, 
questions. I am happy to share my experiences and knowledge with/about 
the Dave MAtthews band.
Now this isnt to say, Flood my box with questions...
Do read the FAQ....it helps on things like
whos playing that friggin piano or harmonica
whos anne and why is she dead

how are carter and sir buford related (no just kidding)

anyways random babble at an ungodly hour (ive been on campus for 17 hours)

btw-i wrote get in line and showed it to dave after the DMB/phish show at 
the horse center.....hehehehe

ericw,

I just learned today that Dave will be in Rochester on 2/26 or
2/27-the person isn't sure which date but tickets go on sale
this Saturday.  He'll be at the Auditorium (which is where
Pat Metheney is and I have a ticket for that but I don't know
where it is).  So, maybe that would work out better for you
seeing as it's a Sunday, possibly.  Dave tickets go on sale
in Syracuse this Friday and the number is 315/477-0700.

has the spring tour been announced with big head todd. any info would
be much appreciated. thanks.
			

A few of you have noticed, and noted, the fact that listproc has recently 
been customized to help in the administration.  Listproc attempts to send 
any given message three times before automatically unsubscribing that 
address.  If your mailbox gets full, listproc will most likely 
unsubscribe you.  If your connection goes down for more than a few hours, 
listproc will most likely unsubscribe you.  

I wanted to impose the strictest limitations of listproc before turning 
the dial down.  As a result of so many subscribers getting unsubscribed 
without warrant, I'll relax listproc a little and keep doing so until a 
satisfactory equilibrium is reached.

Just wanted to respond to Ben's post about cliqueishness etc. on this net.

I usually lurk around here, but I realised when I read the post that I'd 
written 3 times yesterday.  I used to be worried about posting in the 
middle of all the personal messages, but I figured, "if you can't beat 
'em, join 'em..."   If you go to a party by yourself, you won't meet 
anyone if you stand in the corner and eavesdrop.

don't see the internet as a way to be social- yet.  I have a lot of 
friends, mentors, coupla ex-boyfriends, who I met and or talked to on-line 
first before meeting them in person.  Its really not so strange when you 
think about it, just a new way of doing things.  I've also got friends 
who I've talked to on the net for years and still haven't met.  I'm on 
another music-oriented list that has a lot of personal posts and some 
people complain that we stray from topic too much.  Our solution to that 
was to put a paragraph in the introductory message that says we all 
happen to like the same kind of music, but we talk about lots of other 
stuff too, and try to be friendly to everyone.  We love the music, but 
also want to know if everyone is well, and who is recovering from surgery 
or who has a new baby or whatever.  Its fun, it is caring.
We also joke that its not for the faint-hearted :)  and its not in the 
sense that if you don't want to feel left out, you've got to jump in and 
say stuff!  But thats not really that tough.

I think the members of the band (who I've never met, and have no relation 
to whatsoever :)  would tell ya that you've got to take every opportunity 
to make new friends.  And that means 2 things here.  One, that you can't 
hold back on joining in, or be offended by personal-feeling posts, and 
two, that those of you who seem to be in "clique"  need to make sure you 
make people feel welcome.  If everyone keeps that in mind, then no one 
will feel like they're on the sidelines.

Do I sound like I'm preaching?  I hope not, its not intended that way.  
Everybody have a good day now, breathe in some sunshine.  Go hug somebody.

-Dash   (who is so excited she gets to listen to 1/29/94 5 times!)


			

I figure the Dead are the pioneers of allowing fans to tape shows.  They 
have been doing so for longer than most of us have been alive.  What is 
their secret?  I rarely if ever have seen boot cd's and if they exist it 
hasn't stopped them.  Maybe we could learn something?
Peace, Dan

--ya hoo!


			

hi.  i'm me.  you're you.

nice to meet you.

how's minarets.net treating you?

ya' know....

a long time ago, i noticed this "clique" (euhehe...that word gives me the
never really been that afraid to join in.  

look at all the people who post in a dreamy, spacey, what's my care-in
the-world kind of style pioneered by the goddess herself?  

if you're afraid of minarets.net, you have better things to be doing
with your time.  i, for one, hope i don't intimidate anyone by being
one of the va. pioneers.  i get intimidated by each new person who 
asks for the lyrics file, and will soon probably know more about dave
than i purport myself to.  

i'm not a part of a clique.  i hope not.  you may see me as such, but
i'm not.  i'm just a dude trying to squeeze a life out of all the
things i have to do.  if i'm a part of a clique around here, it's the 
minarets clique.  if you come to the va. area, call me.  we'll do lunch.
dinner.  there's also a waffle house in harrisonburg (hey, that's an
even funnier story about my holidays...:).  (703) 434-8214.  i'm fairly
much by myself here in the 'burg, 'cause all my freinds are scattered
throughout the blue ridge community college.

personally, i'd say make the trip to 3rd st. diner on v-day whether you
have tix to the show or not.  you'll meet some really cool people.
anyway...
i don't go rambling on about surgical procedures and my own humility
for clare to get a kick out of it (which she does, i bet.  yup, i bet
she does...).  i write for the sake of expressing myself to whoever
wants to listen, and most of you seem to really enjoy listening.

when it involves more of your ocular capabilities.
listen to language, thoughts overflow.....

seek up an emotion.  and then share it with everyone.  

here's $.80....go buy a cup of coffee with it.....

I just returned to school (and thus, back to the vax) and I just got a Sam's
card (lots of tapes, cheap), so.....LET'S TRADE!

What I am looking for (and will trade two shows for this one)

I am looking for almost anyshow that is good, high qual.


I gotta run to class, but anyway if you're interested, EMAIL me DIRECTLY and
I'll give you a set list and geneology (sp??).

Sorry, no newbie offers....

Get back to me!!!

I also have a few more shows that I didn't have time to give info to, but will
post again!

First of alll, I thought that the actual show was great.  The Crowd really
made it hard to have a good time, but I did anyway.  
Not only did I sit next to 12 junior highers (they were crammed into the 3
seats next to us), but they talked the WHOLE show, and two of them got into
some heavy "petting" during pay 4.  That was pretty funny and I did laugh.

Anyway, after they talked and screamed nonstop, me and my friends moved and It
was all fine then.

One thing that really pissed me off was that when they played songs like Say
Goodbye and True Reflect., nobody listened and startid talking (prob.b/c these
songs aren't on cds and they've never heard them before.)  Nice way to pay
respects to the band!  #36 did get the people to listen, though.  Everyone
loved it, incl. me!  

I really want a tape of this show!!!! I have 7 other shows to trade and most
are of pretty good qual.  Will trade two of my shows for this one!!! (I want to
hear it without all the 12-year-olds talking and screaming.   Please get in
touch if you want to trade for this show!!!!

as a Recently undigestified minarets.netter, i would like to Back Up 

ever since joining Minarets and lurking for a while, i HAVE gotten the 
sense that there is a central group of figures down there (Virginia) that 
use this mailing for personal in-jokes and such.



1) the only Dave.Gods are Boyd, Carter, Dave, Leroi, and Stephan (and 
Bagby) (and Tim, sort of);

2) we don't mind the silly stuff, as long as it's not exclusive.

at least, _I_ don't mind it.

i like responding to the ranDom posts as they come in... that's the 
reason i'm subscribed, otherwise, i'd just read the FAQ and talk with the 
daveslaves at Swat.

so, those of you that bug about the occasional silliness or lack of DMB 

keeping all the lights on, 

read.   bike.    read.    listen to dave.    read.    eat?   
sleep.    read.    type.    listen to dave.    write.    eat.
sleep?    play disc.    read.    bike.    listen to dave.    EAT!
eat... eat.    listen to dave.    listen to dave.    hear dave.

repeat until your ears ring in {([ Stereo ])}...

Peace, Dan

Hey now friends,
Officially, the dead have only allowed (ie reserved a whole 
section for tapers) since 1985 or so.  So unless there are 
some 8 and 9 year olds posting . . .  Of course the dead have 
pretty much always just turned their heads when people brought 
taping equipment to shows.  They decided to create the taping 
section behind the soundboard because the optimum taping postion 
is about 80 ft from the stage, which pretty much puts you right in 
front of the soundboard.

There are plenty of Dead bootleg CD's out there.  It's as much of a 
problem (or more).  I would imagine that the dead have more cash 
backing and actual influence than DMB to fight the bootleg scum, 
but they still exist.

Later,
--Morgan
