I'm digestified, so I don't know if someone has posted this already, but did anyone else see this last night? I was watching MTV's Alternative Nation with my roommates who don't know Dave Matthews from Dave McNally (one of four 20 game winners for the Orioles in 1971...but I digress) Sometime after 1:00 AM, Kennedy comes on and starts making fun of DMB fans because they are so "fanatical" that they know the words to songs that the band hasn't even released yet. My roommates thought this sounded kind of pathetic, until I explained to them that the band's taping policy and soundboard patches, are the reason for this, and that we're not all a bunch of obsessive-fanatic freaks. (any self-proclaimed obsessive-fanatic freaks out there...more power to you, I'm not jumping down your throats) Anyway, the long and short of it all is that MTV is making fun of us, so life can't be all bad. Oh yeah, after Kennedy's little speech, they played WWYS. It's the first time I've seen it. I didn't think it was that great (I, like many others, would have preferred a straight performance clip. It's still much better than Phish's "Down with Disease") I'm going to reserve judgment, though, until I see it a few more times. - MikeTop Permalink
hi folks... it'll be a miracle if anyone sees this post. my mail seems to be taking up to 12 hours to zip through those fiber optic cables and reach all of you... but i just had to share the fact that this is a fine and lovely day.. i got paid. i have some semblence of an idea about what to write my masters thesis on. and i finally got tapes of the dmb shows at tower records and liberty lunch here in austin last 12/15! there were no patches that night so both are audience tapes...but the quality is really not bad considering those loud and raucous texans. standard 1994 tour setlist for the evening show at liberty lunch, except for the "crumbs" they threw us with Help Myself and a nice True Reflections.. but its really the tower performance that makes me smile....such an ideal little set and a quiet respectful crowd...and outside it was crashing with one of those explosive pelting texas thunderstorms...and i asked for Drive in Drive out and they played it. and they played two-step. and granny. and a soft little say goodbye. it was so lovely.... so i know lots and lots of you have asked me about this...and some of you haven't but might still be interested...i've got time on my hands till spring break at least, right? so i'd be happy to do some taping for anyone who wants to trade...or for our newbies who feel they have nothing to offer, blanks and postage are always accepted, just drop me a line.... i think i should go get myself some lunch... beth "God I talk alot..." -Dave MatthewsTop Permalink

Que pasa all, I just would like to say a couple of things, First, about this Hootie loose string business on House of Blues. I don't think he tuned his guitar right then and there, instead I think he switched guitars. I saw Hootie last semester at the Newport here in Columbus (future gig for DMB/BHT on March 9?) and he broke a string. And right there in the middle of the song while singing and jamming, he took off his guitar and strapped on a new one without missing a beat. I was quite impressed. Second, I must say that Boofy is THE man! Boof, I just got the Edwin tapes and they're awesome! Plus the Catfish filler is phat as hell. Big thanks! That's all so, Peace out, JonTop Permalink

Hi there everyone. I've been lurking for a couple of months now and absorbing all of the info and things here. Must say this seems to be a great bunch o' people here. I have been an experienced tape trader for 10 years now. I have become very picky in my last few years on sound quality. I know about the Bagbys (sp?) and boards that are out there. I would love to get some CRISPY, LOW GEN (3 or less) copies of some of these from someone with quality taping equipment. It's weird bieng a newbie again 8-S I have been spinning up boxes of tapes for new NET friends that I have made for the past 6 months for blanks and postage and trades for high qual stuff. I only have a couple of DMB to offer anyone (11-17-92 & 9-26-94) that are of decent enough qual. I do have tons of low gen / high qual Dead, Phish, Blues Traveler and others. If there are any kind souls out there who could hook me up with some really high qual DMB sbds I would be forever in debt. I am hooked hard on DMB! (still trying to learn the lyrics g and need those gtr chords) Are there any minaretters (?) out there who are meeting at the Rochester show? It's gonna be my first (I missed them when they played a bar here in Toronto last year . .. doh (ala Homer!)) I'd love to hook up. Any replies can be made to either address listed below (Cserve is a little more reliable) Later . . . Kanada Kev =8)Top Permalink

To all of you out there who can't get enough of the Dave Matthews Band, (which is everyone, I hope) he will be on World Cafe on either feb 4 or 6 (sat or mon) depending on when the station in your area airs the show. World Cafe is a national radio program out of UPenn that is picked up by public radio stations everywhere. They play a wide variety of stuff, from folk to blues to great bands like Dave Mathews. DMB has already been on their show at least once, but only played a couple songs. The upcoming broadcast will be a 'miniconcert;' they will play several songs, probably for over a half hour, and they also get interviewed. So 'newbies' want to start thier live collection of DMB, or if you need some filler, find your local public radio station that airs World Cafe, and tune in. Incidently, the World Cafe has an e-mail address; i don't know why anyone --Tyler Z., bearer of good news. the dave matthews band will be on the cafe on sat or mon feb 4 or 6 depending on when they air the show. it is a mini-concertTop Permalink

2 quick things... songs! I spent $25 for a ticket that was worth 10.... I kicked out for undisclosed reasons but I've learned my lesson... Don't worry, I wasn't being abnoxious and crowd surfing, I was just minding by own business... Oh well, that's the last time I fuck around in a show... to and I just found an old ticket stub that's barely legible... The date is March 26, 1994... I must get a copy of This!!! I have great stuff to trade... Last but not least... What's the name of the guy playing the electric guitar at the 10/26/93 Trax show... It's Mike someone.. I can barely hear it but it totally kicks ass.. I'd kill for a copy of the show where you can really hear it or even better another show that he plays in....Top Permalink
this isn't the point. it's the crowd. it's the fucking surfers and beer spillers and people pushing and pushing and hurting people and yelling at people and floozy girls who get smashed at the front of the stage who've never even heard dave before and yet still had to be in front and that guy in the attempt to get in front of me) and the crowd was so frickin ornery and mean and jabbing and probing and pinching and all the while i'm just trying to enjoy myself but it's hard to because chickenman keeps hurting me and i wonder why are these people so inconsiderate? i think that the crowds at dmb shows have to be the most obnoxious and impolite people. now, of Thank you Carly. Although I didn't have exactly the same experience as anyone else at the recent Providence shows I would definitely concur that the crowd was one of the most obnoxious I have ever endured. Why is this? I don't know. Because I can't quite figure out how people could decide to crowdsurf during Say Goodbye. Maybe it's a symptom of the band getting more popular-- they attract people who aren't as interested in the group as a whole and maybe they're just at the show to get drunk with their friends and to hear WWYS and Ants Marching and Satellite. This is a depressing prospect for the people that are there to enjoy some interesting music in peace. Because it means first of all that there will be no peace (hundreds of drunk young people and loud music aren't exactly the best conditions for that) and it also means that the band will probably continue down the same seemingly inevitable road that some of us on this net recognized last spring-- that is to say the shows have become far less varied during the past year and if you get loud cheers for Ants Marching and Satellite but people ignore you and start talking to their friends when you play Two-Step, eventually you're probably going to catch on to what's happening and NOT play two-step (God forbid the half-dozen songs that have been put into seemingly permanent retirement by the band). Okay folks, I think I'm going to open up another round of the usual can of worms around here, but I think it's time not only that we discuss this in light of the spring tour but also in light of the fact that management (and they DO read this net occasionally I have a strong feeling) ought to know what the fans are (at least this fan is!) thinking when they're paying $20 for every show and buying $1000 of merchandise by phone every day. So . . . I'm now going to quote a whole paragraph from an old post of mine which STILL (unfortunately) serves as a brief assessment of the situation in which long-time and/or die-hard Dave Matthews Bands fans I'm afraid that the band is choosing their sets for the people who want to hear Tripping Billies just like they did it on R2T. Sure it's nice to play a request for a fan every once in a while (they've pulled some tunes out for people at shows I've been to), but I'm going to see a band to see them do what THEY want to do, not what the idiot next to me wants to hear. I want to hear Boyd and Leroi and Carter and Stefan and most of all DAVE expressing themselves. If the way they do it is by playing the same songs every night, maybe it's all the better for me because I don't have to go traipsing all over the country to see them. I can just see one or two shows and then go home, pop in the tape whenever I want, and take comfort in the fact that wherever the band is tonight, you all at one or another show are hearing just what I'm hearing through my headphones as I read a book at my desk. Doesn't this sound like it might get a little bit BORING? Yup. It does to me. --- I went to the show on Monday. In some ways I shouldn't complain I guess because I managed to take a roll of pictures (I'll announce when I scan the good ones in) and I enjoyed some elements of the show-- a nice Jimi Thing, a very nice flute solo in Say Goodbye, a fairly unspectacular but quiet (in terms of the audience shutting up for once) Two-Step, and a tepid-at-best #36. --- Neb-- I think the World Cafe is on WFUV, maybe 90.7FM in NYC. Look it up to be sure. Should be on at 11pm weeknights. Everyone-- I did a little cleaning up of the web site and it should be purring like never before. PLEASE check it out if you have the resources like and don't like and want to see and have to offer, etc. If you want it done, I can do it (maybe). At least ask or suggest or something. Again, thanks Carly for setting me off. I feel better already . . . carly cjacobs@smith.smith.edu --- Speaking of which, I would like to make a tape offer to the net at large (I figure if you can stand to read my complaining it's the least I can do!). So, since my two favorite venues are Wetlands and the Georgia Theater, I will make a copy of a DMB show from one of those two venues from my collection. The offer can be for up to 4 tapes. You send me blanks and return postage and your address and an envelope to accomodate the tapes, and I make copies and send them out to you. This offer is NOT limited in time or number of people. Write to me, I'll write back saying either "send 'em out!" or "give me a week or two, and I'll get back to you." Please note this offer is designed to prevent anyone from complaining that either trees don't ever pan out (I'm never been on one that worked, although I have the utmost faith that the combat boots one will!) and this offer should also prevent people from saying that it's hard to get started trading tapes without any. Because, now it isn't! --- Oh, also about the web/ftp site, the combat boots tree structure is available, as is the tourdates file, chords file, lyrics file, alternate lyrics file, and faq file. Please don't ask someone to send the files to you-- almost everyone on the internet can use FTP. It's just a question of learning how, and frankly if you all should so you're not dependent on anyone for these things from now on. Andrew Cox's excellent guide to FTPing was posted only yesterday, so look it up and READ IT! --- Well, nothing else to report. I'm still working on Richmond, all you crazy Virginia people! -Ben ------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------Top Permalink

Well.... Obsessed with whining and grovelling, we have missed something I find to be of relevance. I missed it too, until I read an article/ interview on DMB in the New Haven Advocate today. Dave, surprisingly enough, has not taken to playing What Would You Say with any sort of regularity. Check the recent setlists. Then check as they are posted in the future. "I'm trying to get RCA pissed off" Or words to that effect (pissed off definitely used to describe his intent toward RCA). Not as great as a return to two set shows, or 20 minute Jimi Things, or Minarets - Bluewater, but certainly a step in the right direction. Maybe that damn Harvard guy will stop that whining now :) Actually- I agreed with most of that. At least there's some variation in the setlists. These days, there's only about five or six bands playing venues larger than small clubs and varying their setlists at all. Go see Blue Miracle tomorrow in Blacksburg, or right this very moment at the Flood Zone, or next Saturday in NYC with Solar Circus at some club on Sullivan street. I'll shut up now.Top Permalink

hey all, Through the kindness of the net and newbie offers, I've got 3 tapes and one compilation. If anyone would be kind enough to set me up with just one tape, I could build off of that. The only repeats from the night before were #36, Ants, and a Jimi Thing with a completely different jam then what direction they went in the night before. In the middle of the jam the crowd starts softly chanting "we want the funk, rabadap that funk" in time with the music. Dave picks up on it and briefly goes into some nice funky rythm playing. The rest of the band never really jammed on it though, but still some nice crowd participation. were hot. Here's the notsoaccurateoutoforder list 1.31.94Top Permalink

dead tapes are either audience tapes, or soundboard tapes with audience blend for ambience. and, yeah, good mikes are expensive. a friend has nakamichi shotgun mikes( $1000), which he then spent another $250 or so on to customize into separate mike and power supply elements( mikes poke out of the front of greek fisherperson cap, cables down neck to power supplies inside shirt-great stealth set-up, but no dancing or turning of head permitted!--imaging smears). positioned the same distance from stage as distance between speaker banks makes a sweet tape with nice hall ambiance and the excitement of being IN the show, instead of disconnected from it, as many sbd. tapes sound. the front rows of a balcony in nice halls will also make fine tapes. too)Top Permalink

Hello everyone, This is a quick note to all of you who answered my request for trades. Thanks to everyone who responded. I've got tons of setlists now to sort through. Unfortunately, midterms and papers are currently kicking(no pun intended) me pretty hard. The NCAA doesn't approve of sub C grades. As soon as I get back on top of things I plan on churning out some tapes to trade. It shouldn't take too long for me to get in touch with everyone. Also, if anyone has a copy of DMB covering Sweet Home Alabama I would love to get a copy. It helps me remember where home really is. Anyway, I'll talk to all of you as soon as I can and if anyone else wants to swap lists give me a buzz at punter@leland.stanford.edu KevinTop Permalink
There have been quite a number of posts on here in which people have referred to Hootie's HOB show on TBS. Everyone seems to be referring to DARIUS RUCKER, the lead singer of H&tB, as "Hootie." This is not his fucking name! aaah! (sorry, this is just really annoying) Hootie and the Blowfish are nicknames of friends' of the band. Everyone check out hootie, and try to see them before they start playing large theaters or what have you. not exactly a great jamming band, but they are fantastic songwriters and have lots of fun on stage. spontaneity, likelihood of jamming, and stagetalk seem to increase as the band gains in proximity to columbia, sc, their home town. ok, requisite dave content - in nyc, wfuv is possible, but as world cafe is an npr show, i would suspect that it will be on wnyc, the major nyc npr station. i'm mailing world cafe anyway, and will post it when i find out. later y'all ppppps, benTop Permalink

I say "I'm gonna play a song by Dave Matthews...ya'll know who that is?" one person goes WeeeeeeeHOOOOOOOOO!, so I played a little acoustic version of Ants, and she says, " is that the song that's on MTV?" and I launch into a rippin' version of "Whippin' Post" and she's like WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHOOOOOOWOOOOOOOWOOOOOO! and forgets her question. In Dela-where?, the DMB constituents are few and far between and tend to be pretty mainstreamed...look out, they'll be crowd surfing in Philly w/out a doubt. I will remind ya'll that I am still ticketless for Philly, and groveling like a blind man in a snowstorm for any extras. I'll be the skinny guy walkin' around in a pair of grossly over-sized overalls walking around w/ my roomate (equally goofy overalls, only mine are purple-tie-dyed, his aren't) who is probably about 7' tall, and still growin'. If my index finger is raised, does that mean "I need a ticket?" at a DMB Venue, or does it mean something foreign like :"Save porpoise; eat walrus" I'm not very good with the sign language...i thought I was signalling that I needed a ticket at a MSG Dead show last fall, and someone wanted to know why I was advertising that I possessed "Killer-Oner blotter hits" hmmmmmmm....well, no I don't....uh.......killer WHAT-er? This is pretty fuckin' weird, maybe I just get the winners...maybe I look like I have no idea what I'm doing...fortunately that shit rolls off my back fairly easily. Alright, I'm sure most of you have deleted by now, so I can get down to TROOPER! 10-12-94 at the Stone Balloon, in Newark, DE...HQ, low gen...good stuff unfortunately, it'll be a little incomplete 'cause it's a 100 min. show, and all I got is 90s...so I guess "Recently gets cut pretty much OFF. sorry bout that. hey, free is free, dammit! take it easy SPDLMT...caffeine sux!Top Permalink

I just ordered tickets for DMB-BHT in Cincinnati on Feb. 28 after seeing the message about it. It's at the Taft Theatre and the tickets were $20. I got two 2nd row louge box, which sounds like the lower balcony, the dude said they were good, who knows? I'm psyched. Are there any other dates we should know about that aren't listed? I like to tape music on HI-FI VHS. I put up to 8 hours of near CD quality sound on one $2 tape. Now that's a bargain don't you think, that replaces 5.33 90 minute tapes with much better quality. With my VCR I can index tracks or shows to FF to easily, but I like to just let 'em play, all day. I'd throw a huge freakin' party for everyone if I got 8 hours of quality live DMB on Hi-Fi VHS. So, anyone out there with a hi-fi VCR AND a great Bagby collection willing to make this tape? I'd be glad to make copies of it for anyone else that's interested. I guess I should stay out of it, but reading usenet news since 1987 and being an originator of rec.sport.waterski I guess I have come to like newsgroups. I totally understand the fears of minarets loosing it's personality, but it's gonna grow no matter what. It'll grow to the point where nobody could possibly have time to read every message (I can barely do it now). The closeness will be tough to maintain, but maybe if the newsgroup were started, but minarets left, most newbies would find the newsgroup first and stick to that, leaving minarets pretty much the way it is. With the news you can search and scan articles, subjects, etc. The articles stay there until I read or delete them. It's also easier to scan the subject listing and type the number of the article I want to read instead of scanning through the digest. Controlling assholes may be tough, but I don't think it's that bad (but I don't read r.m.phish). A moderated group would be WAAY to stale I would think, let it go. We know DMB is pure talent and everyone who disagrees has really bad taste in music. I guess I don't care either way, but you better be prepared to launch a vote-no campaign because that's the only thing that would stop the formation of rec.music.DMB or alt.music.DMB if somebody wanted to start it. Anybody want to get together in Cincinnati before and/or after the show? I know some kick ass places and have a friends condo w/ hot tub if any road trippers need to crash.

I went to the cafe to wait for ryan to return (talked with him earlier to set things up..), and I was just chillin' with some friends when I oh shitted and realized I'd brought everything except blanks.. heh.. add another plus to why shows 300 yards from where you live are a good thing. as always, i'll tape my world . if you send them, they shall be filled. -- you don't have to worry about me i might have been born yesterday but i stayed up all nightTop Permalink
Welcome Jon Yang!!!! - The man who turned me, eric, marianne and a whole heap of other people onto Dave Matthews. Scream baby, Screeaaam!!! Ok, these crowd surfers - I have a solution - (somewhat vindictive) but a solution no less. All of the "I'm here to hear some great music and watch the show" people should bring a large magic marker (you know the ones that are about an inch thick) to the DMB shows. Whenever a "surfer" comes near you, just hold the marker up in the air - yeah you get the picture. It'll only take a few blemished Polo shirts and Cashmere sweaters for them to get the picture. hehehe Yes, I know, I'm evil but this really pisses me and a lot of other people off.

How do you meet up with them? I've been to two shows before, but I haven't seen them hanging out anywhere. Is this something they used to do but don't anymore because they're on a major label?

Got last minute tickets to the show in Burlington last Thursday and was blown away. ;-) I was against the boards in the front, right in front of Dave...AWESOME! Now, how do I go about getting some live material? I know taping is allowed and I know tapers were there. I'd like this show, but I'd also like some others, too.

greetings all...here's a question i've pondered for a few days now...i was gazing at the lyrics to "recently", right?...right...and i was wondering if anyone knows the story behind it...you see, i thought 'hmmmm, dave is singing about a time when this he and this older lady got involved romantically...', right?...right...then i thought about it even more and said to myself...what a minute, he used to live in south africa...maybe the person he was involved with in the song didn't conform to the amount of melanin in the skin that apartheid had judged human beings on for a long *long* time...and then, always the cynic i just said, 'pak, this is all full of shit, and your full of shit, and the song is just plain good...quit fucking being so analytical!..." so what is your verdict?...am i full of shit?...it all depends on my eating habits (or lack of eating habits)...or is the song about a particular time in dave's life?...post me directly, if at all possible... | | | | | | |______| |---- | | | |______| | ______________ | | | all right, what the fuck is up with the insinuations here. there's a simple question here...was dave ever involved in an interracial relationship? no. he was involved in a relationship with a woman who enjoyed pda. not necessarily pda, just maybe the 'a' wherever she felt like it. sifting through all this "somewhat deficient melanin" crap makes you look like your afraid that it might be true, in my not so humble opinion, and makes you look just as bad as ranting and raving about how much blue haired asians suck. what is wrong with you? how in god's name does thinking that perhaps dave has the decency to not care about skin color, or sex for that matter, makes you full of shit. you're weird. ....nyah... sorry for those that don't want to deal with my pc, but this is the first post in a while that's bitten me, and i wanted to bite back.... ____________________________________ "it is indeed a great gift of heaven\____________________________________ __________________________________ \_________________________________Top Permalink
This is just a comment on the crowd surfing issue at hand. I have found that crowd surfing occurs all over not just in the north so don't rag on the north. I my self was born and breed in what is to many southerners as God's country, so I am not being bias. I attended the album release show at UVA and it was one of the most what you might say violent DMB shows I have been to. So It is not the northerners to blame. I have two classifications for concert goers in general. The first is the person that goes to listen to the music, and have a good time. The other is there to have a good time also, but they are also there to be noticed. This is the catagory I feel the crowd surfers are in. I am not trying to be condesending but that is the way I see it. The next issue I have to address is the problem of people saying that DMB is selling out. I will just make this short and sweet. I have a tape where Dave is apologizing for not being in the area lately, and he says that the band is " Just trying to get it on," and we should be happy for them in their quest. Just as long as the quality of the music doesn't change it is fine with me. Oh yeah I just remembered I was suppose to trade some DMB with a person for some BT. I feel bad about this but I have lost every peice of Info about you so could you please get in touch with me soon. Also if anyone knows anything about Blake Campbell I would really appriciate some info because he owes me some tapes from way back in Nov. Thanks for listening Che Findlay Roop Roopc@tiger.hsc.edu.Top Permalink
sorry to all who responded #2-12... The first was picked and will get E-mail from me in the near enough future It's surprising that people seem to have gone through a similar amount of anguish with cars and cops this week. Jeez, ya'll, stay off the roads where the cops ARE, or drive like they MIGHT be there (comforting advice from the guy who calls himself SpeedLimit 95, i'm sure) Ever since I was in a flipped vehicle full of stolen weapons and illegal drugs with a cop from just east of Charlottesville poking his nose under the seats and in the trunk, I've taken on a new attitude about such things. I hope ya'll do before there are any less of us Minareters. And if your making the drive to Philadelphia, be extremely careful on 95 north of the PA line because people drive like assholes and the cops ARE NOT THERE to scare any of 'em away. ***************REQ'D DAVE STUFF***************** Thanks to all who've responded, confirming that I'm not the only one who like the Christmas song. I WILLL HATE WWYS if my roomate plays it one more time....he bought the album, and I think I've heard the whole thing through TWICE since I've been awake this afternoon. my copy's in the mail from BMG (10 for the price of one with NOTHING MORE TO BUY ......EVER!!!!!!) Oh back to Christmas song...I do cover the song, I DON"T know the official chords...I FAKE it. if anyone outthere DOES have the correct chords (TAB, etc) I'd appreciate them. I have to shove that little disclaimer in there that says "It goes a little like this..." and then, when I'm finished..."yeah, Dave Matthews...he sings it better and he plays it better....so don't boycott 'em just 'cause I suck!" Also, igf I've contacted any of you about trades, get back to me quickly. I now have six blanks ('cause I gave one away)...they're all 90 min XLII If anyone else wants that Stone ballon show, they need to send me a 110 minute tape. Alright? James Helms 116 wharton drive newark, de 19711 peace t'ya'll drive carefully (or GENTLY, as MD likes to remind us)Top Permalink

If anyone's got any extras, I'm looking for two tickets to the DMB show this Sunday at the Palace Theatre in New Haven, CT. I was totally surprised today when I found out that the show was sold out... wow! ANyway, if anyone's got any extras at all, an e-mail would be appreciated! P.S. Have a nice day. -- Have you ever gotten sick and tired of hearing AT&T take credit for things they haven't invented? You will. (jazzbo@eliza.netaxis.com)Top Permalink
i was just wondering what what going on with the tape i sent a couple weeks before christmas. it was for the davemalvations. just let me know whats upTop Permalink
I'm really sorry about this but I forgot to get to my point in the middle of my post. The best thing I have found to do to Crowd surfers is this. As they go over grab them around the waist and and pull them down. After this tell them that you came to the showto see the band not to carry them around on your head. They will get the point, and if not just pull them down again. the HORDE show in Charlotte , NC. 93. This was the first time I saw DMB and I was wondering if anyone might have this show. I have some DMB and RR to trade. Please could someone help me out. Che Findlay Roop Roopc@tiger.hsc.eduTop Permalink
I'm glad Swag said it, cuz I wasn't about to get flamed for saying it. The thought has crossed my mind, though. "I'm freezing my buttocks off!" As long as the sun rises and sets, smoking will be allowed in my messagesTop Permalink
Greetings to all from a newbie in NYC who is finally on this kooky Minaret thang. Heard so much about from friends. It took me nearly 3 weeks to get on. I'm actually at work right now. Going insane. Would rather be outside w/ my headphones on and grooving to #36. What I really need right now is a hit (BONG that is). I want to give a shout to my dear friends Eric and Gavin. I thank them for their warm welcome. Eric- you send some well-crafted messages my poetic free verse kind of friend. Keep it up. I get a certain joy reading them during my daily drudgery at work. Hope med school is treating you well. Oh yeah, as some I've seen at DMB shows). I kind of like Gavin's magic marker strategy. Indelible is the key. Gavin- just wanted to say that you fuckin' rule. Hit it! Back to business. Thank you Ben @ Smith for his accurate and humorous comments from earlier today. Kill the Chicken Man!!! Personally, I could do w/o the moshing, crowd-surfing, and other prebuscent type drunken behavior at DMB shows. Don't get me wrong people. I'm a fun guy, but it's just not that type of music. Believe me, I say get stoned, get lit, trip out...do what you want but just keep it cool. Dance to the music, Groove to the music, Sing along, Stand and chill Sit and chill Appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of the five men on stage. Don't act like idiots. Don't hurt others around you. Don't make it a bad experience for others. It's just some damn common courtesy. Can't we all just get along! ( just kidding ) There's always going to be ignorant assholes everywhere...even at DMB shows. Regardless, I'll be seeing Dave and the guys in Philly (Saturday) and at Roseland (Thursday show) this month. No moshing or surfing from me. Just chillin' and groovin'. I may go a little crazy if Carter does a drum solo (since I am a drummer). I want to say one more thing before I go back to work. I'm just a little bummed that Dave will be playing shorter sets since their touring w/ Big Head Todd as well as there be an opening act. I'm shelling out some good money to see DMB. That's who I want to see. Not some other fuckin' lame band that RCA Records or some stupid management company thought would be good to tour w/ them. All right, enough bitchin'. My day goes on. Keep it simple. Much peace, Jonathan (mr. bitter)Top Permalink
It happened! WWYS on KROQ.......brought tears to my eyes.... Ben, that Barbie chick MADE me puke. SAeriously! MikeTop Permalink
Hello again! Here's a bit of interesting news that I just found out from a co-worker. He found this out from America On-line. Rumor has it that this is the tentative line-up for Lollapalooza '95 is as Data (don't know) Outcast (don't know) Satchel (don't know) Blur (cool) Frank Black (excellent) Veruca Salt (lame) They Might Be Giants (nice) Digeable Planets (real nice) Bush (don't know) Coolio (token rap act) Sonic Youth Hole (suck) Porno for Pyros (not bad...Jane's Addiction reunion would have been better) Nine-Inch-Nails and last but not least and not headlining... Dave Matthews Band I can see it now. Throngs of Gen X kids moshing and crowd surfing to something like "Say Goodbye" or one of my favorites "Cry Freedom" DMB at Lollapalooza. Just a rumor so far. Good or Bad? Strange? Let's talk about it. I say they should stick to maybe headlining the H.O.R.D.E. Tour. What do you all think??? I'm going to happy hour! Cheers, Jonathan (mr. bitter)Top Permalink
Just thought that this might be of interest. I know that DMB footware CDs are rare (only one so far, right?). Well, this may be the beginning of the end for the possibility of future ones. Later . . . Kanada Kev =8) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- I thought this, taken from the February 1995 ICE, might be of interest; all typos are my own - Linda Darling "Though the full ramifications are not yet clear, a major change has occurred regarding the legality of live CDs in Italy. In mid-December, the SIAE (the Italian equivalent of ASCAP or BMI, which collects songwriting royalties on live CDs, indirectly giving them their legal status) issued a statement that it would no longer accept royalties on new live CDs of European artists or reissues of existing titles. According to one boot label, "it looks as if it's now illegal to issue CDs on Euro artists and concerts [similar to Germany]." (Changes in German law two years ago not only made it illegal to produce CDs by European nationals, but also restricted the use of recordings made at concerts in most of Europe by performers from any country.){this is the result of the famous PC/WEA International suit, I believe - did you know that Germany had always protected German artists from boots, but left artists from other countries wide open to being booted quasi-legally? - Linda} The status of live CDs of US artists was still unclear at presstime (CDs of American artists recorded in America may remain legal), but it appears legal bootlegging in Italy may be nearing an end, at least on the scale the industry has enjoyed over the past four years. Rumors are already swirling about some labels investigating copyright laws in other parts of the world for possible relocation."Top Permalink

Rabid squirreles are running amok on campus!!!! Well, actually they're racoons.....well, one racoon...but considering the approx. 12 to 1 squirrel to student ratio how long can it be before rbid squirrels _ARE_ running amok on campus. Are you people listening? No? Ok, then I'd better get to the Dave them towards the security personell who are always trying to get at them anyway. It's easier, they won't be able to do anythign about it, and they'll be tossed out, so as to assure that they won't do it again, that night I mean. I also had something fairly relevant to say, but now I fear it's gone. Travis, I put your tapes in the mail at 4:12pm, so look for them by monday or so. What's this I hear about a Winston-Salem show? I didn't see it on the schedule of dates. If this show does in fact exist will someone please mail me the Dates, venue, ticket prices, when tickets go on sale, etc. Thank you very much, and good night. "Please have a party waiting for us after the show" No rabid squirrels will be allowed to smoke in my messages, the rest of you may proceed as usual.Top Permalink
