I tried to send this the other day, but it hasn't shown up, so I'm trying it again :} I'm planning on taping the 1/28 (Bates College) and possibly 2/2 (UMaine Orono) shows, and I was wondering if anybody has an idea what to expect as far as complications caused by the fact that there are two bands/soundboards/sound guys, etc. Any tips/info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance... Later -DaveTop Permalink
In case anyone was wondering - My band carbon12 went into the studio over x-mas and we had a few setbacks (read - hard to work under pressure) anyway we're going to finish up in a few weeks ('cause we're all attached to school in some way) so if anyone's interested in a advance copy - I like my friends on the minarets alot - mail me or cory car3@acpub.duke.edu Just a shameless self-promotion, seanTop Permalink

which i'd post again below for show and tell, but i'm not ambitious enough to figure out how to do it? they said DMV! hee hee (primus does a funny song by that name, btw) bottom of the page that read "performers subject to change" or something to that tune. I take that to mean that they probably listed all the bands that will be playing there in the next few months and will select the best of those shows and broadcast them. They'll probably spread them out forever, too, so we might not get daveband until august. Then again, we might get lucky and see them soon. I gotta call a friend who has real cable tv and beg him to let me tape it at his place right now. teh 20th of feb go on sale tommorrow (jan 21st). the woman i talked to at ticketbastard told me they go on sale at 10 pm, but i have a feeling that's supposed to be 10 AM, so give it a shot early. i don't know the # for the landmark theater, but ticket bastard in syracuse is (315) 472-0700. i hope everyone way up here in the northern reaches of society can get there on the 20th. The landmark is a really cool venue with very classical looking gilded stuff all over and a good balcony. no bad seats anywhere, but not very accessible to groovin' and dancin'. it seats about 3000. good luck and may the force be with you.

I am looking for a good copy of the 11/8/94 show at the Lisner Auditorium in D.C. I have several Dave tapes and some other stuff that might be of interest to someone, so if anyone has this show please respond to my address. Hope to hear from someone soon. Stephen Just when I thought I could be unique among a large group, there it is, a note from another Stephen! Anyway, all this talk about cliquishness has moved me to share my perspective. I think it started with someone saying that there seems to be a certain core of people whose posts dominate the list, and that it can be intimidating for someone who perhaps hasn't been around as long as others seem to have, or for someone who just doesn't have so much to say. I can understand this; when a few people seem to know a lot about DMB & are responsible for the bulk of the posts on Minarets--especially when they're having such a good time--for those of us who feel a little more on the outside, the inclination is to feel like there are some who "belong" more than others. I think this will be the case in just about any group of substantial size. However, I don't think that makes Minarets cliquish. If you wanna see cliques in action, check out alt.society.generation-x. There's some intelligent posting there, but there's also a lot of silly spam, some groups of people have adopted their own acronyms & expressions. It's all with good intentions--I've seen little flaming there--but those are some damn cliques. The net.gods there act like net.gods. There's a tight-knit group who contributes something to every discussion, but also spends inordinate amounts of energy lauding the other members of their little bunch and passing little inside jokes back and forth. I don't see that here. I guess I'm trying to say that I don't think Minarets is cliquish (which is good, IMO), but as we grow as a mailing list, the potential is there. It's important that we discuss this before it becomes a problem. I think a lot of us here share a love for DMB & some other bands, probably like the idea of trying to achieve peace on some level through music (am I reaching?), and generally do not wish anyone ill. Though DMB isn't my favorite band (oh, shit! What did I just do?), the atmosphere here is time getting into other music. I hope this isn't a complete waste of bandwidth, but it has been a complete waste of worktime if anyone lets on to my supervisors what I've been doing for the last hour. --don't flame unless someone is persistently being an asshole & is here only to cause trouble --continue to handle what seem like dumb questions gently. I've been around rec.music.phish for a while & know as much as I want to about the band for now, but my first question was reeeeally dumb (and it wasn't about You Enjoy Myself). No one said anything, & eventually I got a clue before I posted again. --keep the peace & general good vibes alive I gotta go.

back to my clique post... people, especially my dearest rick, have taken it out of context... i am not saying that it is evil, i'm not even saying it's wrong. when did i say it was evil? i just said i don't feel a part of any clique. it was more a statement of my overwhelming, over-numberous, and stupid insecurities that no matter how hard you try to make me feel like i'm a part of a given situation, i usually feel alienated. gee, i bet none of you have ever felt that way before......:) nothing wrong. nobody say it wrong. i don't think there's a clique. i think there's a few people here i happen to know better than others. but nothing wrong. hi everyone. perhaps i should introduce you to the gay bees? then you'll really be a part of a dumb joke. tee hee. how could i when i spent 4 days in richmond in december?? when i well, you're definitely a member of the clique, aren't ya? and on subconscious bidding from chardy, i thought i share this with a new song called "cherry girl" about getting laid. i'm trying to figure out if it's sexist or just a sign that these guys aren't getting enough. or both. but it was a great show. go check them out. if you're as politically motivated as i am, ignore the lyrics. bounce up and down and all. they're really good for that. that's all. just another memo from ben's cellar... ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ __________________________________ \_________________________________Top Permalink

i was talking to a freind of mine (oh, heaven forbid. rick has freinds.) and she told me.....get this...... she saw dave band in 1989. this is no lie. she did. dave band was indeed around in the days that produced "awsomely 80's." it was a pre-boyd show at a high-school in c-ville. they played with something like 10 other bands in a festival that was in the gym. that's crazy. crazy horse. i'm not drunk yet. but i'm gonna be in a few hours. so pray that i don't come to close to a computer. last time i net surfed while the gay bees were created. i made an ass of myself on this and other nets trying in some god awful manner to compare dave to trey anastasio. people laughed. HARD. but it was fun. ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ __________________________________ \_________________________________Top Permalink
I almost sent this to MINAREST. Is that a mailing list for people who can't sleep 'cuz they're too busy spinnin' tapes for newbies like myself? Really, there are some seriously generous people on this list. I dig y'all. Okay. Was doin' some serious butt-wiggling last night here in Tucson for my fave groovy Arizona band, Major Lingo. You guys would dig'em. They offer free live tapes to their fans, so I'm just gonna have to send off some blanks, I think. Anyway, my point is... the show was at a club here called The Rock, and I started chatting with the owner. This is the venue that DMB played at in December... and BHT in November of '93. The owner said he wanted to get the DMB/BHT tour, but was shocked as hell to find out that it is $30K. He said that he only paid $3K for BHT a year ago, and only (get this) $1K for DMB last month. (of course, we're out west, and nobody has really heard of DMB yet... 500-600 people at the show tho, that was impressive). So how/why are they charging 30K for this lineup? Dang... Is the tour even coming out west? All the dates I've seen thus far have been east coast. --Don ____________________________________________________________________________ ----------------------------------| --Dream Theater, `Learning to Live'Top Permalink

dave should cover "change" off "truth and soul"...actually any fishbone song would do, seeing as how leroi the master reedsmith seems to go from JB-horns style fills to the almighty john coltrane...yeah...and books to read...i've been getting into more politically oriented shit...a book anybody should read i is the "Bolivian Diary of Che Guevara"...hell, the first person who posts me something on the book, i will mail the puppy out to them...another really good book is "The Opening Guns of World War III" which is like an installment of this really cool socialist magazine called the New International...anybody who wants that i'll mail that too..."The Book of the SubGenius" is always pretty grand...and the "Temporary Autonomous Zone" by Hakim Bey is good...anything by Noam Chomsky and Kurt Vonnegut, too (we got to see him speak =8-))...an-nyong- gay-se-yo...may all of you have balanced, blissful, and serene weekends...and keith, i am never fucking wrong...i am never fucking :)...Top Permalink
I realize that Mr. Ben Sterling discussed the subject of cliques a few days ago but this is the first time I've had to read and respond to mail. I tend to agree with him. I have posted a few times, but mostly Ijust lurk and try and arrange a few trades. Whenever I do post, it seems to go ignored. Like lets say for example, I posted a week ago concerning a tape id, not one response or mention. It appears that there is this group of ten or so that post to each other via minarets. I think this feeling of cliques restrcits the flow of ideas. I'm sure that a lot of people have something to say, but don't. It seems a bit intimidating to post maybe, it was for me. But as you can see i'm slowly overcoming this fear and getting in on the action. If you think you have something importatn let everyone else in on your secret and I hope we can all enjoy it. have fun and a nice day. blind naked and scared markTop Permalink
wow. i think i'm the only rick on the net. how about that. just a few more passing that's on clique and claque..... phish.net. i'm just going to stand up and say that i think the people who founded this net are a helluva lot cooler than those that founded some other nets (ahem). i realize i'm speaking for myself. no matter how much i feel like i'm a part of no group, though i may want to be, i was here at about 2 nanoseconds after god created these heavens and earths volunteering to build lyrics files and faq files. i'm a founding father. god forbid. if you worship me for it....you're just as weird as i am, and deserve a permanent place in whatever clique you perceive to be here. so what's the point? we like minarets the way it is. call us conservatives...but when some ass comes on to show off his or her prowess at stupidity, we don't like it. so we simply say something stupider. or maybe i do. maybe. maybe i'm running off at the mouth. but i really hope that this net doesn't follow some ugly digression to sin and hatred and impurity and non-kosherness, and i'll fight it. dammit. so, if anyone insists on flaming someone else, your going to get doused with silly-putty so that clare and i can see if it will melt. yep. that's what we're going to do. do. new. nu-nu. as dave mother's used to say. "you're such a nu-nu, david." or more likely she'd say "nu-nu(with really high pitched pretentious voice)" this is also kind of new. nu. ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ __________________________________ \_________________________________ I'M POSTING TOO FUCKING MUCH!!!!!! \ stu_rcthomps@vax1.acs.jmu.eduTop Permalink

hello all- my apologies in advance for the following post, becuz it may not seem terribly topical to some of you. i was just curious if any of you were fans of, or had had the opportunity to listen to any of mark heard's music. he is, in my very biased opinion, one of the best songwriters of recent years. his music is not terribly dave matthews like, in that he tends to remain a bit more on the "mellow" side. he recently died, far too soon, of a heart attack, and to give you folks out there an idea of fans of his, which will hopefully give you an idea of his musical style, i'll just tell you a few of the artists that appeared on his tribute album. bruce cockburn was a friend and fan of his, victoria williams, and her husband from the jayhawks played a song, michael been of the call, phil keaggy, the vigilantes of love, and many others. i'm really sorry this post got so long, but i really love heard's work, and i just thought i'd see if there were any fans, and reccomend a fine body of music to you fellow music lovers. bill ------ the opposite of love is not hate. it's apathy. jugular@rhf.bradley.eduTop Permalink

I just got back from seeing Shannon Worrell at Crossroads[Trax] in C'ville. Great show!!!!!!!!! It was my first time seeing her live, and she is even better than the cd. Guess who joined her on stage? That's right...Dave himself. He sang Eleanor and then Shannon asked him to join her in "We Are the World." He did a funky verse. Pretty awesome.

Once agian things are getting more and more interesting by the day. I spent the last two days convinceing everyone that we should get rid of 11/11/94 and do 3/10/94 for this tree. Now Boofy says he can set me up with a seed! ARGH. Oh but it gets better. Last night during my gin & tonic induced dubbing spree the first set of my seed kicked out on me. As a matter of fact it lies split open on my bed as we speak. Good new is here to, sort of. The seed master John goes to school with me, so no reason I can't get a new seed soon (I hope) also I got a shitload of these things dubbed in the last few days, they will be in the mail monday. So I guess we shall stick with 3/10/94. 11/11/94, well we will have to see. I guess if I drop out of school and quit my job I could run that tree too... We shall have to see. Anyone know how to fix a tape that has one reel running really slow like it is sticking? And who the hell has snow? I haven't seen a flake for 2 weeks and I live in Colorado damn it! Peace & Out...

yikes... i think i've completely lost it now... i just threw caution and all sense of sanity and reality to the wind and reserved tickets on a flight from austin texas to baltimore/washington international airport for february 14th, where i will then rent a car and drive my ass off to richmond to meet my escort and the rest of you crazy people at 3rd street diner.... add to that the fact that i'll be skipping two classes and two days of work, as well as blowing almost a full month's paycheck, and i think we'll all agree that i'm certifiably looney tunes....can't wait to meet you all! bethTop Permalink
You know I post about this WAY too much. Hopefully this will be the last for a while. All I request is that if you are on the tree, the former 11/11/94 tree please get in touch with your parents. Tell them if you are still up for it and all. Branches get in touch with your kids and make sure everthing is cool. Then get back to me. I need to know who is on and who is off this tree. BTW I am the only Japhy on this net, I think that is sage to say! Peace & Out... Japhy Listen to Phish, walk around and sleep alot.Top Permalink
but how about. SOmeone seed me and I'll administer the Wait tree. I mean, I live in Winston-Salem and should've gone to that dern show anyway, so why not. I lve in that stinking town and have to put up with the same damn cops that all you guys did when you went... minarets since last year, but that means that I'm not a newbie to minarets...I just finally got a seed of a collection, hopefully, that seed with a little love and kindness will sprout into a nice collection of fun stuff. For instance, I only had one tape at the beginning of last semester, now I have two boxes of tapes. And I still have many people's tapelists, so there's likely to be more where that came from, so then I was a tape newbie, and now I'm probably not. At least, I don't feel comfoartable answering newbie offeres.....ANyway, before I lose my train of thought entirely, I;ll shut up... respond to each other effectively, but I'm not sure that is the point of minarets. Then again, he wanted an identifiaction of a show, and got no response, that's not good. We must try to read all the posts even the long ones without getting offended. Minarets can be a lot of work, or it can be a lot of fun and very rewarding for all of us. I choose the latter. I went through all my old trade files from last semester so don't be surprised to hear from me soon.

I feel like last time I posted about daveband I was negative about the lexington and wait chapel performances and how they were very similar setlistwise, so I feel real bad about this, but I feel like I gotta say it. :) Ok.. the video.. ummm.. well, it just doesn't click. If it were all live, the live shots were great. But, the mixage of live and weird concept footage is too discombobulating, sort of. I think the main problem I have is that there's no main theme throughout the video. Granted, I've only watched it twice, but have it on tape so probably will a bunch more, and look forward to it, but to be honest, I can see why it ISN'T a buzz clip or buzz saw or toenail clip or anything.. (damn, you'd think after taking a 5 hour standardized test this am I'd know how to write a coherent sentence) (or maybe THAT IS why...) Anyway, I'd like to hear what other peoples' opinions are on the video. Although it looks like a lot of time was put into the post-production of the video, the end result doesn't look like a lot of time was put into the post-production, if you know what I mean.. happy 22nd anniversary of roe v. wade, everyone.. brett kingswell, pet detectiveTop Permalink

different. It seems like todays videos all have to tell a story or relay some kind of deep point. With the the DMB's video, we can enjoy the music and let our eyes enjoy some really cool whatever you want to call it. The live footage is incredible, the lighting really creates a nice stage prescence. I don't think the video is specifically aimed at our short attention span's like Beavis and Butthead, but rather it's trying to create a visually stimulating 4 min. showcase for the music. I think it accomplishes this well. I think it's kind of eighties looking. Back when the videos were just random compilations of images. your eyes relax and quit analyzing every little piece of it trying to find some kind of deep message or theme. I think the video shows the band off well. concert. Now I get to see some creativity, notice the Fire Dancer! You think Dave did the animation sequence?

footage is too discombobulating, sort of. NebuIous (boy am i curious about what a NebuIous is) claims to be some kind of on-line spell-check whiz, so i'll leave this for him ;-O. I think the main problem I have is that there's no main theme throughout the video. Granted, I've agreed. no theme is a problem for those of us who enjoy the conceptual... only watched it twice, but have it on tape so probably will a bunch more, And i've only seen it once (wink and nod to Tony for providing me with my only opportuniy.

Ok, ok, ok... I realize this is a question for the Phish net, but I saw someone's post last week about Phish on Letterman and it made me want to ask this question... Please find it in your heart to forgive me. ;-) I attempted to videotape the David Letterman show in which Phish appeared a few weeks back. I now know I don't know my "am's" from my "pm's!"

1. Let me join in wishing Brett a happy b-day. Brett was ratehr charitable to me long ago, taping vast quantities of tapes (not DMB) when I was still relatively a tape newbie. So... hope those GMATs went well. In fact, I think I'll send Brett a birthday present. How about, oh..... 10/8/94 DMB? Something else? Let me know 2. At first mention of Roe v. Wade, I thought "oh shit." I would think that high percentages of persons on our net, including myself, are pro- choice. But not everyone is. And trust me, there is little that would be more painful to Minarets than an abortion debate. If you're pro- life and want to vent, do it to me. My best friend is pro- life, so I can take it. DON'T do it on the net. Thanks. 3. I think this world would be a much better place if all 16 year olds quoted Maya Angelou. That is all.Top Permalink

(rrrrrusted rrrroot) well, hey since I'm on a roll.. If you can ever check out Billy Pilgrim, do so.. the slobbering one and I happened to catch them opening for Cowboy Junkies in C'Ville last year, and they were excellent. They are basically the "Indigo Guys", two guys with acoustic gee-tars that just filled trax with their energy.. they even come from the same haunts as the indigo girls in atlanta, actually. anyway, they have a self-titled cd that includes some other musicians, so it's more band- like, but it's still excellente. and check out morphine, too. bagby (I assume.. he was the one playing michael lanois' the maker after the wfu show far as I know) was playing them after the lexington show. it's a barritone sax, slide bass, and drums, making for a mellow, sonorous sound.. saw them this summer (with a bunch of french people screaming mourpheeen!! mourpheeeen!!). ok, well, I'll stop now.

hi all did anyone else happen to notice that in the newest edition on rolling stone (demi moore on cover) there is a BMG music club ad and yes Dave Matthews Band is a new addition to their selection there is even a picture of the album wow-it didn't take them long to snag the album --chipTop Permalink
hee hee ok. on the cover thread started by wil foy who cracks me up. he mentioned 'the devil went down to georgia' and oh my goodness this brought back memories for me. i laughed so hard, good laughing and it reminded me of a time when my dad took me to play golf and i had this tacky pink golf glove (because i was a little girl and girls wear pink) and we drank barques root beer and listened to paul harvey's 'the rest of the story' wow... i really lived in savannah a loooooong time ago.. ok.. back to the point. my dad listened to country then, (he's since moved on the beethoven and vivaldi...) but that was a fun story i accidentally babbled but i hope it makes someone smile out there cause it's a warm memory for me.... i think that dave and the boys would do a great cover of the waterboy's cover of van morrison's 'sweet thing'....... make any sense? hee hee van morrison has a song caleld 'sweet thing'. it's about.. oh..say 4 minutes long. the waterboys did a cover of it that is truly breathtaking and it makes you want to cartwheel and it's got wonderful violin that makes you want to close your eyes and jump into the stereo... it's cool, cause the waterboys did a diddly in the song from 'blackbird' (lennon-mccartney). so. dave should cover the waterboy's version, not van morrison't original... the cd it's on is called 'fisherman's blues' and i'd reccommend it to anyone who is interested. the waterboys are an irish band, so be forewarned that you can certainly tell they're irish.

ahem..... the SLOBBERING one??????????? sorry, i don't remember _that_ part of the evening. i must concur on billypilgriam, however. sitting crosslegged on the floor of trax with the two of them strumming away happily in front of us was like a nice warm summer camp experience or something. they're pretty creative lyricists, too... photo of the band along with fellow "roots rockers" Hootie and the Blowfish, the Jayhawks, and Grant Lee Buffalo. its in the "Trends" section in an article called "Rock's New Sturm (do they mean strum, maybe?) and Twang". The text focuses mainly on Hootie's top 25 success, but calls dmb "budding stars" or something like that, and talks about their strong regional following and incredible stage proficiency resulting from incessent touring. I especially liked the quote from the three-piece suited RCA exec who said in amazement, "There are people at Dave Matthews concerts singing the lyrics to songs that haven't even been recorded yet!!!!!!". oh yeah... on that old book thread... if you like mysteries that are alot more than just mysteries, check out Smilla's Sense of Snow by Peter Hoeg. Its translated from Danish, and is beautifully written, full of mystical memories and strength and intelligence. adios.. bethTop Permalink

night live last night like me? (i'm really getting sick of goin to school in a town the size of medium sized cow pasture!) at the end of the show they had a skit about the internet and one of the new guys was a hairy nasty dude who told people ove the computer that his name was clare and tried to get them to take off their clothes and such. to dispell any fears that this might have induced i want to ensure everyone that our beloved clare is NOT a hairy backed man chainsmoking away while trying to get us all to be naked. i know 'cause we got to hang out last street diner to hang out. several interesting things happened that i'm sure everyone will find intriguing to say the least. here's a transcript of what transpired. we (rick, lionel and i) got there first and rick left us there so he could go get $ (let's face it, we're all broke!) and we sat there wondering what would happen if clare came in before rick got back since i'd never met her and lionel only briefly. rick got back and clare arrived in a swirl of black linen and pearls. lionel got up to go pee. i was introduced and we had coffee. rick got up to go pee. we talked about minarets which alienated lionel (who is not on this net but is forgiven due to our great and unending love) rick played with his silly putty. lionel got up to go pee. clare and i spooned (yeah man! right there in public in a booth with all kinds of people looking at us!!!) then we switched and spooned in the opposite direction while clare yelled (sing-song voice) "we're spooning, we're spooning!" rick went pee. a friend of lionel's came in and we laughed. someone who knew clare came in and we laughed. someone who i know from school came in and we were amazed since i live and go to school many, many miles away in ny. lionel went to pee. rick got out his metal plates and poured them out on the table for all to see. i finally succumbed to my bladder and got up to pee. we talked more and had more coffee and then......then....somehow rick ended up wearing clare's pearls and ice was melting on people and i injured my groin and had to limp to the car later. it was silly-ness incarnate. rick and lionel peed again and we all hugged and smiled and were happy when we went home. even though i can't be in va for valentine's day, you should go as my proxy. please go meet rick and clare and everyone else here and talk about this wonderful iconoclastic (hey rick, i too love this new adjective!!!) band we love. everyone can spoon and drink coffee so you have to go pee, although i bet rick will go pee more than anyone else! and if you're like me and can't go, smile and know that you're loved by us all and will be missed. this is a place for us all.Top Permalink

Alright, I give up. I've tried to hide my ignorance in hopes that someone else would mention it, but its been long enough and I would like to know. On the album Remember Two Things the last song, "Christmas Song" has a long delay at the end before going into another little jam/song and then some weird nature sounds. What's up with this? Is this actually supposed to be a part of the song, or did they put it on as extra. The first time I heard it I could have sworn it was raining outside. Even after the 50th listen I still got confused last night. I was sitting here in Minnesota (it doesn't rain in the winter) and I was shocked that I heard all these crickets and rain. I admit I was on the verge of sleep at the time, but still I should have known better by now. So what is the story behind the last track of the album? Where did they get the sound effects? Why did they put it on there? I've checked the FAQ and haven't see a word about this, and nobody else has asked in the last two months. I realize that this is probably a topic hashed over many times, but I can't wait any longer. Flame me in mail if you wish :-) Peace! Eric Doherty "edoherty@macalstr.edu"Top Permalink
you know........ it's been so long since i stuck my foot in my mouth that i forgot how gross shoes really taste. not to mention that my feet are simply too large to be saying things as rampantly thoughtless as "i think the people who founded this net are a lot cooler than the people who found other nets." i tend to steer around getting myself flamed pretty well, but i failed to stay out of the fire with those comments. it's not that i'm going to stand here and pretentiously beg for the forgiveness of the people who i offended, because i was indeed out of line. but it all has a point. the people who founded phish.net were no different from me, alex, clare of anyone else, and if i had made any efforts, i probably would have been able to learn this without making such rude remarks. but now that certain members of phish.net who call dave.net a home away from home have put me in my place, and, rather gracefully i might add, deflated a rather sorely inflated ego, i've made a pretty real revelation about the whole clique thing that allowed me to kick myself in the throat. my first experiences with phish.net were two years ago, and i must say that when i first subscribed i felt it to be a little too stand-offish. at the same time, i didn't know jack about phish. i came onto phish.net to learn more about phish. was it because i was too insecure to see through what i perceived to be a very tight group of people i had, at the time, very little in common with, or were they indeed a bunch of assholes. i suppose i assumed at the time, the latter. i also blew it off. i can only hope that nobody feels that way about me, or boofy, or ben sterling, or anyone else, upon arriving to this happy habitude called minarets.net. at this point, i realize that dave.net is not as small as it once was, no matter how much smaller than phish.net it may still be. but, with the help of people who are smarter than me, and have experience with both nets, i realize that i may really make you feel ill at ease with all of my spaced out, whacky "shit" (for lack of a better word. the quotes belong to sandy, by the way). but no matter how hard i try to make myself an unreadable fuck, i never direct any of my comments towards anyone. i just like to goof off with people who don't mind sitting around and reading it. if you don't want to read it, that's ok, just move along. but i'm not here for the sake i'm a babbling kind of dude. i like to share my thoughts with everyone who will listen, and i don't tend to care what people think of it. but when i inspire someone to quote directly from a history textbook that essentially tells me i'm an egotistical fuck (which was the essential message i got), i realize i've screwed up. the point of this longwinded tirade on how stupid i was this week is that i don't want new members of this net to ever feel like they are being driven off. as much as i hate this computer (and i really do), i do get a lot of satisfaction of getting to know people through it. in my opinion, there's no such thing as a "newbie." i hate the word (at least, at this point in my short life of netsurfing i do). i would like to try and think of new members of this net as people who haven't had the opportunity to learn as much about this particular band, and that i can help them find out more. it's why i originally volunteered to write the faq. and if i could remember what the two things were, i'd tell everyone. over and over again. i like informing people of things. it's why i'm a journalist. but i didn't mean to intrude so heavily on other people's buzz's. ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ __________________________________ \_________________________________ sorry. :) \ stu_rcthomps@vax1.acs.jmu.eduTop Permalink
hello all- i have, as the subject indicated, and incredibly ignorant newbie question, i think, but i'm gonna ask it anyhow. i was thinking about the title "remember two things" the other day, and i was wondering what those two things were. i think i get the obvious reference to the two fingers, but is it talking about any other "two things"? does anyone have any ideas? is this a really stupid question? bill well, depending on which show you know of/were at/heard/listened to, I think dave had a couple different answers... 1) remember two things.. love your mother and leave only footprints and 2) remember two things.. buy a cd ..and.. buy another cd brett -- you don't have to worry about me i might have been born yesterday but i stayed up all nightTop Permalink
So what is the story behind the last track of the album? Where did they get the sound effects? Why did they put it on there? I've checked the FAQ and haven't see a word about this, and nobody else has asked in the last two months. I realize that this is probably a topic hashed over many times, but I can't wait any longer. Flame me in mail if you wish :-) well, according to rumor, the studio minarets and seek up were recorded in was in rural northern va (rural northern va? there's an oxymoron.:) and after a couple of sessions they walked outside with a microphone and recorded whatever nature was willing to play for them. i don't know if this is really true, but it's kind of romantic. i'd just chalk up the seek up reprise as another bonus track among the multitudes of bonus tracks. ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ __________________________________ \_________________________________Top Permalink
Alright, I give up. I've tried to hide my ignorance in hopes that someone else would mention it, but its been long enough and I would like to know. On the album Remember Two Things the last song, "Christmas Song" has a long delay at the end before going into another little jam/song and then some weird nature sounds. What's up with this? Is this actually supposed to be a part of the song, or did they put it on as extra. The first time I heard it I could have sworn it was raining outside. Even after the 50th listen I still got confused last night. I was sitting here in Minnesota (it doesn't rain in the winter) and I was shocked that I heard all these crickets and rain. I admit I was on the verge of sleep at the time, but still I should have known better by now. So what is the story behind the last track of the album? Where did they get the sound effects?

Eric Doherty "edoherty@macalstr.edu" la la la.. canyou all tell i'm working today? doin my stuff and got the phone line all hooked up so i'm on top of EVERYTHING today... hope all these posts coem out to more than jsut babble... ok. on this subject. the song at the end of chirstmas song is seekup. seekup jam. that they didn't put in the song.. and the rainstorm... well.. i'll give everyone little preview of an excerpt fromteh article file i'm of the Top 40 mentality. For proof, we can look to the orchestra of crickets and massive thunderstorm at the end of R2T. "There was this huge thunderstorm outside where we were recording. So we just took a blank out there and recorded it. We did the same thing with the crickets." and crickets." Sometimes the real think _is_ already in your own backyard.'

Anyone going to the Orpheum? Want to set up trades so that we can exchange there? Anyone interested, please reply thanks Todd tshalom@bu.eduTop Permalink
So what is the story behind the last track of the R2T? Where did they get the sound effects? Why did they put it on there? The album was recorded, the studio part anyway, at John Alagia's house/studio in Alexandria, Virginia; just a typical house in the suburbs of DC. After recording the tracks a thunderstorm moved through the area. They set up mics on John's back porch which overlooks a forested ravine. That's how the thunderstorm became part of Remember Two Things. The crickets were probably part of that recording session as well and the jams were most likely recorded while the other tracks were laid down. At least that's the story I got. Feel free to interpolate whatever you want. alex crothersTop Permalink
From minarets@moose.uvm.edu Sat Jan 21 18:37 EST 1995 You know I post about this WAY too much. Hopefully this will be the last for a while. All I request is that if you are on the tree, the former 11/11/94 tree please get in touch with your parents. Wait a second, I called my dad today just after reading this message and he replied with..."Who the hell is Dave Matthews?"...I just laughed and smiled at his conservative banker-type humor.

Does anyone know if Watchtower was played on 11/26/93 at the Peppermint Beach Club in Va. beach? I have a copy of the show, but my friend who saw the show said he remembered the band playing Watchtower. Is it just bad memory or an incomplete show? Thanks a bunch! DaveTop Permalink
anyone interested in trading right now - on campus trading would be faster and cheaper than firing tapes all over the country in the hopes that someone might send them back. what do you think? sfTop Permalink

Waht's up, I'm looking for a tape of the 10/8/94 show at Avalon in Boston and a show with "After Her" on it (the original version of Satellite). I only have about 9 hrs. of DMB, but that does include 4 shows from when Peter was still with the band (8/4/92, 2/3/93, NYE '92, & 1/30/93 set II), so if anyone's interested, get back to me and we'll work out a deal. Later, Craig cypherc@cleo.bc.eduTop Permalink
I was just thinking that some people may not have the setlist to this show SDBD wasn't entirely to attentive to the sound of Dave's voice. Its a great show and the Jams are awesome. I am willing to trade this show (that is still quite rare, seeing as I am the only 1st gen from this that I know of.) first show, which was in DC at the BAYOU either the day before or after thanksgiving from 1992. IF YOU HAVE THIS SHOW, YOU HAVE THIS TRADE!!! Please search your collections now. that may be in your private stock... Smokin' Other bands of interest are Phish, RR, ARU, GSW, BT, Alman Bros... ect... ect... Jazz & Funk (Lookin' for boots, not CDs) Thanks a bunch!Top Permalink
In response to the person wanting to know what they played and all... I got back from a rocking show at MSG and poped the tape in the VCR. It was one of those shows where they run late, Daved talked to long to Gene Wilder or someone, so Phish was closer to the end. They were wearing quite a conventional outfit for the Phishmeisters, a little dressed up, I am not even sure if Fish had his dress on. Anyways, busted out into Chalkdust. Now Chalkdust is a fat song, but not really on that night. Do n't know exatly why it was cut so short, but it seemed to be only about 3:30 mins or so, in fact they cut out some major jams and shit. It seemed like they were a diffrent band or something. When they were over I kind of felt like some other no-name band with one radio hit had just played, the crowd seemed like that too. But... next night at NYE they busted out in Chalkdust agian. This time it rocked, more like the 6 min version it should be, hell probably even longer than that. So I guess they wern't replaeced by robots like I thought at Providence... As for Dave content... Well I think Dave will have a much better time dealing with the network, Letterman setup. I mean Phish has like 6 songs that are even close to radio time when they play them live, but think of everything DMB could whip out. I vote for a FAT ASS #36, complete with a few trademark Dave groans to get it going. Now THAT would rock! Peace & Out... Japhy Listen to Phish, walk around and sleep alot.Top Permalink
Hey there! Wow, my first posting! I have to say I'm a little nervous. I guess you could say that I am a half-breed newbie, as I am freshly new to minarets, but have been listening to DMB for some time. With that out of the way, what I really wanted to talk about was the post by PAK recommending any books by Kurt Vonnegut. I HEARTILY agree, the man is incredible!!!! My particular favorite is "Galapagos". (how the hell do underline on this thing?!?) I have thought about picking up something by Noam Chomsky for some time. Any recommendations? Feel free to drop me a line anytime. I ususally check my messages at work, and I'd much rather be doing this than that. Hasta luego!Top Permalink
oh my oh my i was thinking about the 2 things ... love yoru mother and footprints vrs buy cds etc .. ive heard em both but that aint the point of this message da point be I fuckin finally get the image hidden in the dots on the cover of the cd r2t i feel like such an idiot .. i always thought i was seeing either a) a hand imiation of lil bunny foo foo hoppin through the forest .. the 2 fingers being bunny ears or b) a hand doing the peace symbol but now now i get a whole 'nother image its a hand holding up 2 fingers ..not a rabbit or a bunny foo foo (well it could be but this makes sooo much sense) jsut 2 fingers ..like 1, 2 the numbers ..like remember 1 things no rememeber 2 things ahhh the ecstatic geeling of an epiphany !!! and on that note, heres 2 more things to remember a lil bit of love has never a hurt a thing and .. neither have a few kind words love and loving kindness catherineTop Permalink

so. dave should cover the waterboy's version, not van morrison't original... the cd it's on is called 'fisherman's blues' and i'd reccommend it to anyone who is interested. the waterboys are an irish band, so be forewarned that you can certainly tell they're irish. 'when you hug someone, let them be the first to let go...' clare emily i love the waterboys cover...and dave would croon it out with the best of em i agree. ericTop Permalink
on the subject of vonnegut, long live kilgore trout, and check out the band of the same name if you ever get the chance. i belive they're either out of colorado or seattle, can't remember, real jazzy funky stuff. gray -- It's ok to close your eyes, as long as you can still see the sunTop Permalink
(?) HANI jesus......what's up with this...... this is the 5th time this weekend that has this song was called chris hani....... i mean, patrick, i understand....but the other four people tried to convince me this was the title....... and the only time i have heard it refered to as something other than #36 was when leroi called it 'dance with me' in birminghan.....and dave corrected him....and said 'no....thats #26.....or #36.....yea, #36....' keithTop Permalink
Samples show at Ziggy's in a couple of weeks? If you are, and if you live within say, three hours of Winston, then you should be at least thinking about it, then let's do a meeting. I'm a native and we could do dinner, or diner as the case could be, and then go to the show. I'm planning to tape, and bring your lists, so we can arrange trades. Send ME mail, not the list. We can deal. Hell, now that I have a modem, I might even approach posting as much as you guys...Claire, I'm flattered that you thought that my Charlie Daniels band idea was funny. It wasn't my intention, but it is kinda wacko...Other than watchtower, I doubt DMB will do any other covers, unless they're jamming with a particular musician, please oh please, a jam with everything on Soulfish, or South of the Border, or Everyday Syndrome... 4/6/93[?] show. April 6th is my birthday! If anyone out there has a tape of either a Samples, DMB, or Everything show from that date in any year, email me, and we WILL work out a trade. I think it'd be fun... Or if anyone is out this year, on my 21st birthday, then please, oh please, tape one, and we will trade for it... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RUSH remMATTHEWSWEET everythingBIGHEADTODD davematthewsbandBLUESTRAVELER samples --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Top Permalink
