CD case and I noticed that the inside of the back cover has a picture

Poor V-Day Tree

kadams@liberty.uc.wlu.edu Tue Mar 7 22:39:08 1995

Sorry to the guy (was it Bill?) who tried to tree v-day.  I really do 
sympathize with you and all the twigs, branches, leaves, and sprouts that 
wanted that tape. Unfortunately (and this is just to further inform some 
uninformed people) the show was illegal to tape.  OK, no problem...we can 
be sneaky.  BUT, you are not sneaky if you broadcast that you have the 
tape on this net (not too private here, you see???)  Well, I think you 
all got the point.  You never know who's lurking on this thing.  So, to 
those of you who are quietly sitting on your tape of the day after V-Day 
show (and you know who you are 'cause I bet there's quite a few of you), 
keep on grinnin' and listening to your little gem all by yourself.  And 
if you feel like sharing your secret with some select friends that's your 
perrogative, but is certainly not condoned (heh heh).  In other words, 
what DMB or the Symphony doesn't know wont hurt 'em, right?  Let's just 
try to keep our actions from reflecting badly on the band in the future.  
It's kinda like the dorm counselor thing...most of 'em aren't going to 
look for beer in your room, but if you offer them one, they're gonna have 
to bust you.  You know what I mean? Let's all just be a little smarter 
I also didn't mean for this message to be derrogatory toward anyone at 
all- I just breezed through the last digest and was inspired to post - I 
jsut think i saw this coming. Oh, well.  No worries.  Later all...

DMB.  It is literally the most insulting and misguided interpretation of

long as the criticisms are well founded.  This guy is just out to lunch.  
How does anyone that obnoxious get hired by a major newspaper.

has several black lights in his dorm room.  He had colored his entire (yes
entire) body with different highlighter shades and proceded to perform a
strip tease for his roommate and some friends as a joke.
his friends a show, but a crowd of people outside.  the noise created a
disturbance and security came to the door.  refusing to believe that they
were sober or "un'stoned, my friend admitted that 'yes, i was dancing
naked with a highlighter in front of a blacklight.'
amusing story, but maybe you just have to know him.

House Of Blues is on TBS.  The show comes on at 12:00 midnight if you live in
Eastern Standard Time.  It will be on both Friady and Saturday nights at that
time.
Also, I hate to bitch, and a couple personal messages a day don't really bother
me, but this is getting out of hand.  I just checked my mail, and out of about
15 messages, 12 were personal messages.  I will be calm and give advice.

Boyd Tinsley interview on WICB (Ithaca)

jag1@cornell.edu Wed Mar 8 05:27:01 1995

Mike Powers' interview with Boyd Tinsley aired tonight.  While it broke
little new ground for diehard fans, the interview was well conducted and
showed the musical roots of the band to new fans.  The two hour show (no
commercials!!)  was filled with a variety of songs from R2T and UTTAD and
the Recently EP.  It was odd to hear Haloween on the radio.  Also played
was a version of Ants with Tim Reynolds, the Typical Situation from the
Rutebega demo, and Warehouse from the Recently EP.  A very good show for
people not familiar with the band, and an excellent selection of music to
show the diversity of the band.  Well done.

new listserver last weekend(hence minarets was down for a few days) and

The old one did not have this feature...and maybe Alex can change that,

For a substantial amount of money (too much!!!), he stood up in the

DMB-Imagine that!!

Clogboy@aol.com Wed Mar 8 07:02:52 1995

Hello all,
morning, but I can't stop listening to them.  I've listened to DMB for about
a year and a half now, but I've never had the good fortune to get any quality
live shows on tape.  Until now.  I recently traded for the 7/6/93 show at
Trax (Much thanks Mark!!) and I am in awe.  Some of the songs that I have
never heard in concert are incredible!  Granny--I can't stop playing this
song.  I fear that I am going to ruin my tape because I keep rewinding and
playing it over and over!  My other two favorite songs of the moment are #36
and Say Goodbye.  SG has got to be one of the most beautiful songs ever
recorded.  I heard #36 in concert in Boston on 2/4 and was blown away by it.
the song after Tripping Billies in Set III?  It sounds sort of like an early
version of Say Goodbye.  Is it?  If anyone can help, please *personal* e-mail
with the info.  Thanks.
lyric file?  I would really love to get the lyrics for #36, Granny, and Say
Goodbye.  Again, *personal* e-mail.

First off, Ugly Americans aren't very good.  They aren't bad (the organ
is a nice touch), but they aren't good, either.  At least I didn't miss 
much by missing the first few songs they did.

Secondly, Big Head Todd and the Monsters Wail!!! I saw them here last 
year, and they continue to impress me.  I didn't know any of the songs
off their new album, but I thought they were really good songs, and 
"Moose Song" was just sick.  I have the setlist written down if anyone
wants it.

Thirdly,  The Embassy Theatre in Ft. Wayne is awesome.  It's really old, 
with a high ceiling and a balcony and beautifully carved walls, with plush
seats and red carpet.  There were all these old people acting as ushers to
take you to your seat.  It was great.

Fourthly, Ft. Wayne, IN is home to a lot of white trash.  At least, as
far as I could tell by all the drunk high schoolers at the show, not to
mention the many adults who looked completely out of place in cowboy 
boots, and who sat and looked confused for most of the show.  Must've been
there to see Ugly Americans, I guess.  Before you flame, I live in the
same mountains of VA that Dave & Co. do, so I KNOW what white trash is
like.  My town's full of it.

Fifthly, THIS SHOW ABSOLUTELY WAS INSANE!!!!
Every song was jammed to the hilt...Recently was cut off in the middle
so Boyd could fix his violin....so what do they do?  The "Blue Water/
Bring me Wine-GRANNY!" segue, right out of Recently...absolutely 
beautiful, considering I'd been screaming for Granny just before 
Recently started.  Yes, the show started with #36...beautiful move, 
playing something most of the folks didn't know...Ants got the expected
response, but it was actually good, at least the intro was...Rhyme and
Reason was probably the most unspectacular number of the night, but that's
not saying much, as True Reflection was absolutely brilliant...Boyd got
into it very much....Then came WWYS, which I don't like, but Leroi played
as well as he could and saved it for me...then the intro/jam (DO we have
a name for this yet???) into Satellite...I told the 2 redneck girls behind
me (one of whom has permanently damaged my left eardrum with her incessant
high-pitched shrill screaming) that Satellite was coming up, and they
seemed dumbfounded....then it started....not bad, but nothing to scream
about (something the Ft. Wayners had difficulty understanding)....Boom.
Dancing Nancies.....Un-fucking-believable....jam was vicious, all Boyd.
Then another surprise...Minarets...I thought they'd shelved this one...it
was brilliant, the band sounded very full and together....then the "hippie
song"...it was about 15 or so minutes...had me dancing hard the whole 
time...Leroi blew the shit out his solo....the place went nuts then, 
rightfully so....I thought they were gonna end there, but instead,
Dave played the Samples' "Nature" song for a bit, and went right into
haven't heard before"....so much to say, so well-played.  I was probably
the only one who knew all the words...I was getting some strange looks.

Oh well.

Blue Water ("Bring me Wine")-
Granny

"Nature" intro-

IF ANYONE TAPED THIS SHOW, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, I BESEECH THEE,
GET IN TOUCH WITH ME!!!!!  I didn't see any mic stands there, and I was
talking to Bagby afterwards (you know, "Hey, I'm from Staunton, you might
have heard of it") and he said it may just not have been taped.  That 
would suck, because this show blew the shit out of the show I saw in
DC 2 months ago, and that one was good too....I also asked him about the
RSO and about why they're making such a fuss about tapes, and he said he
can't speak for the band, but he wouldn't mind if tapes were out there, 
but it's not up to him.  He has no idea what's going to happen to the
performances, but RSO has all rights over the officially recorded stuff.

Well, that's all for now... I want to thank Joel (who's still on the
road now, poor sap) for hooking me up with a 5th row seat, and I'm
telling y'all, this show was a definite mindblower.

Peace, and all that,
Dominic

netter, you may notice striking similarities in the structure of this 
file, and you may even notice that half of it is exactly the same.  
That's mine and ellis's fault.  

If you have a question and it isn't answered here, then ask me.  I may not
be able to answer it, but i know people who can, and i'll be able to get it
answered here.

==========================================================================
The First Question
==========================================================================
Is this file as complete as it could be?
The answer is a resounding NO.
This particular question is date specific to the Oct 94 posting of the faq,
and is intended to point out that the faq is still in a state of flux as
the net has grown to immense proportions in the past two months.  i 
encourage all members of the net to proofread this faq as diligently as you
want, and to let me know where you think answers could use improvement,
and what questions should be answered.
Alex and i will be working over the next few months to make this file as
overwhelmingly informative as possible, so be on the lookout around the
beginning of the year for a new and improved, glittering frequently asked
questions file.
Information we could particularly use is detailed information on the setup
of the archive site at the Phish.net computer at Brown, as well as a little
detail on what World Wide Web is, because i have no clue.  Seeing as i wrote
to of the most important files for this net, as well as knowing all file
administrators personally, i've never had a need to go galloping off across
the internet to find these files.
So have fun picking me to peices.  I slapped this version of the file 
together in about two hours on a Sunday night in early October, so it's
probably just full of glaring mistakes.  (I'm not even sure if all of 
question numbers in the outline match up to the actual question numbers
==========================================================================
==========================================================================
A-1. What is Minarets.Net and how do I subscribe?


Minarets.Net was initially started by Alex Crothers
with the help of Ellis of Lemuria and Eric Budke.  The name of the
Net comes from a song on the bands first cd, Remember Two Things,
and was suggested by Ellis. Originally Sreaming from the Minarets,
the band shorten the name of the song to Minarets.  So the name of
the Net went from Sreaming_From_The_Minarets.Net to Minarets.Net.
I guess we all got lucky.

This Net is somewhat different than other musical nets that you may be
familiar with.  To begin with it is not automatically digestified (see
below) so whenever you send a message to Minarets it gets sent to all
the subscribers immediately.  Another aspect of this net that is different
than other nets is in the way you subscribe/unsubscribe.


This is a list of commands that may be useful in the future.
let me know if you have any questions, problems, or toothpaste?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Send these commands to listproc@moose.uvm.edu as the first line in the
body of your e-mail message. In the examples below.....



These are some commands that your not as likely to use, but just in case

A-2.  What files are available pertaining to this net and the band?

--------------------------------------
The Warehouse is minarets.net's setlist file.  The file is being put 
together by Blake Campbell cambp_c@cs.odu.edu, and is currently not
well enough established to really be available for your perusal.  i'm
sure when it's done, though, he will post it, and then everyone will know.

A-3:  What other listservs are there?
The following bands have their own listservs.  To get a complete list
of instructions on how to get on any one of them, send a note to our

B-1. Who is the Dave Matthews Band?


of five musicians to create a uniquely compelling pop sound that combines
the influences of folk, jazz, rock, world beat, and reggae.
emble the players in 1991 to accompany him on a demo tape of original 
songs.  Then a bartender at a Charlottesville, Va. jazz venue, Matthews
says he aimed high, approaching the musicians he respected most.
out.  The trio then approached Stefan Lessard, who at 16, was already an
accomplished upright bass player, about playing electric bass guitar for
the band.  When one of the tunes seemed to need violin, they enlisted
the string expertise of Boyd Tinsley, and a band was born.
who is the band's cheif songwriter.  "It's pop music with a pretty posi-
tive message.  I hope it's accessible to everyone."
strong individuals, each with his own interpretation of a given song.  His 
band member agree.  "We take a lot of different influences and and make 
something new out of them by playing each song the best that we can play
it,"  LeRoi Moore says.  It is this belnd of influences that creates the
band's rich texture.

:   Dave Matthews (vocals, guitar)  is a self-taught, lifelong lover of 
music who left his native South Africa as a young child, returning ther
as a teenager after living in the United States and England.  He credits
and classical.  Matthews draws from the folk traditions of many cultures
from around the globe, finding common themes among their complex rhythms.
For him, making music is about bringing people together, "lifting spirits."
than separate them."

:    Carter Beauford (drums) was born to play music.  The son of a jazz
trumpet player, he is himself a renowned musician, and has appeared regu-
larly on Black Entertainment Television's  "BET on Jazz with Ramsey Lewis."
"I was raised on jazz," says Beauford, whose jazz influence is evident in 
the makeup of the Dave Matthews Band.  "Except for Stefan's bass guitar, 
we're an acoustic band," he says.  "That comes from the early days of jazz,
and from the classical influence too."  The result is a multitextured
sound that offers new challenges to Beauford and the other band members.
"There are so many different elements in our music," he says.  "You really
can't put a lable on it, and that's why I love it so much." 

:    Stefan Lessard (bass guitar) is a musician whose age belies his talent.
An upright bass player who has played clubs since the age of 15, he was 
tapped by Matthews who "just had a feeling about him, his spirit, his sense
but his band members say it's talent, not luck, that has brought him so far
so soon.  "The best thing about this band," Lessard says, "is that you get
this potpourri of different styles."

:    LeRoi Moore (saxophone, et al) and Carter have been jazz compatriots 
for years, playing together at paying gigs and informal jam sessions.  
"Jazz is probably my main influence," admits Moore, who also has classical
training.  "But at this stage I don't really consider myself a jazz mu-
sician."  For him, the Dave Matthews Band remains a challenge because
there is room to explore, to respond to the expressions of the other four
players.  "I have plenty of space to improvise, to try new ideas," says
Moore, whom Matthews credits with arranging many of the songs he writes.
"It's almost better than a jazz gig."

:    Boyd Tinsley (violin, vocals) finds it strange sometimes that he 
abandonedthe reserved precision of classical violin for the spontaneity of
contemporary musical performance.  "This was an area that I hadn't explored
before," says Tinsley, who has been playing popular music since 1985.  
"When I'm really into the music, my whole body, my whole soul is into it."
The band's diverse roots are a great asset, Tinsley says.  "We're very Am-
erican, as Dave says.  Jazz, fiddle-style, rock, it's almost a melting pot
of American music."  The best thing, though, he says, is how much it matters
to the audience, and to the players.  "People are drawn to it," he says. 
"There's passion here."

===========================================
B-2.  What kind of equipment does the band use?



In regards to equipment, Dave uses a Gibson SST Chet Atkins signature
model.  Boyd uses the Gallien-Krueger to power two 12" Mesa/Boogie speakers 
enclosed in one 1x12 cab with a metal grate, sometimes called RoadReady but
I don't think that this is the type here (you can tell by the covering of the 
cab itself).  Boyd also uses a Boss pedal for reverb, don't know the model
number other than it is a digital reverb, grey , with blue knobs.  As for
the bassist, he uses a Warwick bass, very nice if you know basses, I
think, for example, that I've seen his model here in a store in Nashville
for $3000+.  And that's only a 4-string.  The more strings, the more
money, but that doesn't matter because he only has 4.  Anyway, As for his
rack, I didn't really notice anything there important other than I know
that his cabs are SWR and am guessing that his bass power amplifier and
preamp are the same brand.  This is also VERY high-end stuff.  I think
that Carter uses DW pedals, but don't know about that.  Cymbal brands can
be seen.  Have no idea about the saxes or violin.  That's all I got for
that stuff.

--------------------
At the cd release party for Under the Table and Dreaming on Sept 27th,
Carter showed up with a new drum set.  If anyone knows any specifics,
please send me the info--rick.

===========================================

when the Dave Matthews Band originally got together in early 1992, they
had a keyboard player by the name of Peter Griesar.  Peter also played
harmonica on So Much to Day, What Would You Say, and some of the earliest
versions of Screaming From the Minarets.
nobody has asked Peter for sure as to why he decided to leave the band,
but dave has informed us that it was a decision made under the most 
amiable circumstances.  Dave also told us that peter had just gotten
a little too tired of the touring schedule.  i suppose asking Peter would
be the best thing, but he's not very easy to find.

=================================

B-4: Who is Tim Reynolds?
As many of you know, Tim Reynolds is credited with playing on four songs
on Remember Two Things, as well as the entirety of Under the Table and
Dreaming.  So who is he?  He's pretty much just a freind of Dave's from
Charlottesville.  Tim has been playing guitar for longer than some of us
on this net have been alive, and Dave really has taken a liking for Tim's
ability to spice up his (Dave's, that is) music.

Dave and Tim have also done acoustic shows together.  There's several
of them out there, and by the next time this is revised, i should have
a listing of all of them.  At this point, the only shows that come to my
mind are 11-29-93 at James Madison University and 12-12-93 at The Movie
Palace in Charlottesville.  There's also the Birchmere show that is 
highlighted on the Recently ep, but i'm not positive of the date on that.
i know it's sometime in February of 1993.  Check your copy of Recently :).

Also to note are a few shows where Tim plugged in his electric guitar and
sat in with the band.  These include the Miguel Valdez benefit show (see
question #B5) and 12-8-93 and 12-9-93.

Tim has a couple of cd's available, and is currently heading up the C-ville
band known as TR3.  Keep an eye out.

=================================

B-5:  Who is Miguel Valdez?
The specifics to this question are a bit beyond me at this point, but i'll
work on getting a definitive answer.  Miguel Valdez was a percussionist 
from the Charlottesville area who used to make frequent stops to the Dave
Matthews stage with a rather elaborate set of bongos.  In early 1993, however
Miguel died.  This is where the specifics seem to elude me.  I don't really
know much else.  If you do, please let me know.

=================================

B-6: Who are some of these other regulars jammin with the band?

it's a very unique instrument with a very unique sound.  
His most prominent work with the band are the touches he added to
the studio recording of "Seek Up" on the cd "Remember Two Things",
but he also played with the band the week of July 7th, 1993, when
Stefan cut his hand and was unable to perform.  He was also the
guest performer between sets at TRAX on 9-7-93.


He plays a bass that stands up on end (like a regular acoustic bass
you'd see in a classy jazz band or an orchestra or something).  However, it's
much more thin and, as I recall, it had 10 strings.  4 of the strings seemed
to be low strings and probably in the same arrangement as a bass (E, A, D,
G).  Then there were 5 strings on the other side that were an octave higher.
The amazing thing is that he plays both sets of strings at the same time by
fretting the strings really hard.  The sound is really rich and the man can
really jam by himself.  

Reid -SPICE@DICKINSON.EDU

I was lucky  enough to catch him at Trax on 9/7/93.  He played for 
about a half hour between DMB sets and was fantastic.  It was truly 
amazing to watch him play the Chapman Stick and I would strongly 
encourage anyone to check him out if you get the chance sometime.  
At this show he also played with a drummer, Johnny Newman, I think 
was his name and they meshed well.  Supposedly Newman has played 
with DMB too.  Anyone know anything about this?  Anyway, after the 
show I bought Greg Howard's Cd which they were selling at the show.
Its super and I would highly recommend it.  You might have difficulty
finding it in local record stores but here's the adress they give on 
the cd sleeve.   Espresso


The title of the cd is "Stick Figures"
Greg also released a cd early in '94 entitled "Shapes"

Brett

guy's flute work out.  He played at TRAX, 11-2-93 and really gave
Warehouse a nice touch, as well as giving some of the body which
Lover Lay Down lost when Peter left the band.

On the flute...Richard Harding is his name and he's a really nice guy.  I saw
him at my first DMB show a little over a year ago, but Tuesday was the first
time I met him.  He also like to play with various bands out in his
residence of California, so if your on the west coast, keep an eye out.

-------------------------------------------------------

sung with the Dave Matthews Band a few times, particularly known for
helping out with vocals on Angel From Montgomery.  She also sang for
the short-lived Alma Madre, as well as Charlottesville All-Stars,
which was a hodge-podge of c-ville musicians including, but not
limited to, Carter, LeRoi, Boyd, Doug Wannamaker, Miguel Valdez,
and many others.

------------------------------------------------

what he's doing with himself these days.  He's another one of these
artists who would just show up at Dave band shows with his organ and
sit-in for the night.  Doug was a member of Indecision, and then helped
put together the now-defunct Alma Madre.

=======================================================================
========================================================================
C-1: What cd's are available by the Dave Matthews Band?
the band put out it's first cd on Nov 9, 1993 entitled Remember Two 

Ants Marching/Tripping Billies/Recently/Satellite/One Sweet World/The Song
That Jane Likes/Minarets/Seek Up/I'll Back You Up/Christmas Song.

The only studio cuts on this cd were Minarets and Seek Up.  The rest were
recorded live at TRAX in Charlottesville, the Flood Zone in Richmond, and
The Muse in Nantucket, RI.  The cd was produced by John Alagia (who also
has a musical act of his own called Derryberry and Alagia, and can be seen
in the DC area).
Tim Reynolds can be heard on Minarets, Seek Up, I'll Back You Up, and 
Christmas Song, and Greg Howard can be heard on Minarets.


Recently (radio edit)
Warehouse (acoustic, recorded live at the Birchmere)
Dancing Nancies (same)
All Along the Watchtower (recorded live at TRAX on 2-22-94)
Halloween (same)

To the best of my knowledge, this cd is still available through bama rags
records.

On Sep 27, 1994, the band put out its first major label release (RCA), 
Best of What's Around/What Would You Say/Satellite/Rhyme and Reason/
Typical Situation/Dancing Nancies/Ants Marching/Lover Lay Down/Jimithing/
Warehouse/Pay for What You Get/#34

you can hear Tim Reynolds on each and every one of these songs.  The 
reason behind the repitition of Satellite and Ants Marching on both
full length cd's remains a mystery to the entirety of Minarets.net.

-If your local store doesn't know about DMB, you can order the disk and/or
poster directly from Bama Rags Records at (804) 979-9695. However, it will be
much appreciated (even if you order direct) if you'll tell your local stores
about the band and ask them to get some copies to sell. They can call Bama
Rags directly to do so.

--------------------------------------------
C-2. #34   (see note)
#34 is a very beautiful, very laid back ballad that seems very reminescent
to Satellite.  Dave wrote the song in memory of Miguel Valdez who used to
jam with the band on a regular basis.  Miguel, who was a member of Afrikan
Drum Fest, died in the spring or early summer of 1993. (see q. B5)
---------------------------------------------
C-3. #36    (see note)
#36 is a total funkin' jam fest.  It's about a slain South African member
of the anti-apartheid movement by the name of Chris Hani.  No two versions
of the song are alike, and Dave seems particularly fond of the song.  He
also really likes to see his audience groove to this song, so be prepared
to dance.


------------------------------------
Here are some of the more provacative and interesting introduction
"Could I have been... the king of diarhea?"  
"Could I have been... mugged somewhere in Norfolk?"

C-5.  Halloween?
The question mark is a key factor here.  Everyone has a different 
a love song.  But it also seems to be a hate song.  
According to Chris Tetselli of Red Light Management, the 
Make your own guesses....or maybe just zone into the music and enjoy.
----------------------------------------------
C-6: What's Tripping Billies all about?
Dave has described during a couple of shows that Tripping Billies is
about a late evening on a South Afican beach.  Turns out that Dave had
done a little too much of a particular substance that's controlled here
in the U.S. (and in South Africa, i suppose) and was lying out on the
beach on a beach towel.  When a police officer (referred to as billies
in some english speaking countries such as Australia and England) 
approached Dave, he handed the towel over to the officer with the mistaken
impression that he was handing a loaded gun over to the officer.  

Didn't yer mom ever tell you to stay away from drugs?? :):):):)
----------------------------------------------
C-7.  What songs have the band covered?
This is the current list of the songs that the band has covered
All Along the Watchtower    Jimi Hendrix
2001/dueling banjos jam (always as an intro to Ants Marching)
Angel From Montgomery       John Prine
The Redemption Song         Bob Marley
Exodus                      Bob Marley
Nature                      The Samples
The Eyes of the Maker       Daniel Lanois  (hasn't been done since Peter left)
Me & Julio                  Paul Simon
Sweet Home Alabama          Lynyrd Skynyrd (also an Ants Marching intro)
Sympathy for the Devil      Stones
Tangerine                   Zeppelin

==============================================
C-8: how come they don't play ? anymore?
this rather obscure song was written by former keyboardist Peter 
Griesar (q. B3), and when he left, Dave didn't feel appropriate
playing the song anymore.  Dave has, however, said that he would
like to see the song appear on a cd someday.
consensus has it that this song lost so much with Peter's exit that
Dave found problems playing it, too.  It had fairly extensive keys
in the chorus and was usually introduced with a fairly rippin' harmonica
solo by Peter.
This, believe it or not, is one of Dave's favorite tunes.  He's kind of
saving it, as far as i know, for when he's really worked it out into
a song that he's proud of.

=================================================
For the most part, The Dave Matthews Band is very receptive to
taping.  The general way to go about it at this point is to
walk to the front door of the venue and ask permission.  Usually
you will be allowed to, but it's best to arrive early to avoid being
shut out by a preponderance of tapers.  A member of the net was once
promised by the band's soundman that there would always be a sbd feed
of some sort available, but there's no telling whether or not RCA is
going to override this promise.

What do I need to bring and do when I want to tape a concert?


Equipment
1. Tape deck (obviously) 
2. RCA cables 
3. Flashlight 
4. Extension cord or (preferably) a 6 outlet strip 
5. Pen 
6. Paper for setlists and trading phone#s, addresses, etc. 
7. Something to carry most of the shit in 
8. Blank tapes (more than you think you'll need) 
9. "Y" jacks if possible

If you arrive late you can use these to split the soundboard signal so you
don't get cut off by other decks.

Arrive early, like really early. . . . You'll get a better feed, you can
get yourself set up while the house lights are still on, and it really
annoys other tapers when you run in during the first song and try to hook
up. 

Hang around your deck. Letting your tape run out and killing someone
else's signal is the rudest thing possible. Always flip when you think its
neccesary. 

Watch out for other people's equipment, etc. If you take care of others,
they'll take care of you. If you think someone needs to flip or needs a
new tape, ask others around you what the best option is; most likely it'll
be a joint effort to make sure that both you and the guy who forgot get 
good tapes. 

Be prepared for "Hey man, did ya tape the show, can I give you my address,
phone #, etc." Write out your address/phone# a few times and just give it
to these people and tell them to get in touch with you, it makes life a
lot easier. 

And the final, NEVER TO BE BROKEN, rule of taping, you MUST listen to the
show in the car on the ride home, no matter what. We call this Blake's
rule [this is in reference to Chris's friend Blake Campbell]. Any other
suggestions from tapers out there? 

Enjoy and I hope everyone gets good tapes. . . .

STU_GJCARRIE@VAX1.ACS.JMU.EDU
|From Lee Silverman  ST101137@brownvm.brown.edu:  A Tape Tree is
a way of distributing a popular tape to a large number of people.
copies of a tape, everyone gets their tapes faster & there's much
less work involved for the owner of the tapes.
So I post to the net, saying that I'm running a tree.  In that
post I include a form for people to fill out & send back to me.
(most  of the info on these forms gets used, so always fill out
the whole thing) After about a week of waiting, I compile all the
replies into a "tree," where I arrange to make copies for 5 or so
people. Each of those 5 people is given a list of 5 other people
whom they are to make tapes for.  Each of them makes copies for 5
people, & so on depending on how big the tree is.
with the best taping equipment, so the tapes lose less of their
sound quality.  If you are on a tree you have one or two
everyone).  You do this by either sending blanks to, or trading
with, the person above you.  (Whether you send blanks or trade
generally has little to do with your placement within the tree).
The second responsibility you *may* have will be to copy the
tapes for a certain number of other people.  They may either
trade with you or just send blanks.  At that point your role in
the tree has been fulfilled.
Pandion@Brown.edu for some suggestions.

{Phish specific material deleted}

slackers on the net; expect that there may some problems, and
that no tree will run perfectly smoothly, then be ready to patch
lost branches to parents with a small burden.  2) Try to make
your tree run well anyway, to preserve netiquette and tape
quality, not to mention trust and credibility of and on the net
process. Lee and Ellis are willing to give suggestions, at least,
if not administrative help.  3) Running a tree does involve some
time, not only to create the tree -- which itself could involve
assimilation and organization of a hundred or more names and
addresses, and being sure that those addresses and the tree links
get hooked to the right people -- but to make tapes for the
branches, settle any problems that arise, deal with orphaned
leaves, etc.  Remember, there is a difference between the person
administrating, the person rooting, and the person seeding the
tree. 4) The tree administrator is not the only person with
responsibilities; as Lee said, everyone on the tree is
responsible for his sections, and may at some point be asked to
help out with stragglers, orphans, and late comers; there is no
pressure, but there will be requests.  5) If you have a great
tape(s) but not the experience, time, understanding, or interets
to run a tree, you could ROOT your tapes to someone who IS ready
to run the tree.  Just post a note to the net (mail to
phish@phish.net) with the subject "Need Adm for date tree".
==================================================
with what you have (which assumes that you have more than a
handful of boots) & to make it easier to let others see what you
have (which assumes that you might one day be interested in
trading for other tapes.)  That is, even if you dont think one of
these items is useful to have on your list, you ought to at least
be able to give the relevant info on any particular tape.
generation determination); Ellis tried very hard to find one.
BTW, number gens how you want & be prepared to explain your
standarization; there is no *right* answer.  But, important info
location of venue, source (FM broadcast, audience, soundboard,
monitor feed, suzy-Q, studio, board remix), generation (you
define!), whether the original was digital, whether your copy is
on metal, whether your copy has been dolby-ized, some form of
grading (try A, B, C; + or - for hiss & noise; try to be strict,
it'll come to you), & any other comments (eg first {Granny}, only
show with {an acoustic Tripping Billies, etc).
quality and performance quality. You may want two systems, both
numbered, both lettered, one letters and the other suffixes
(+,-,=,*,etc) or whatever works for you. Just be sure that you
know what it is and that you can decipher it for anyone who asks.

==================================================
You dub a tape & pay for postage; someone else does the same.
(or, you might just send blanks; see D4 and D4C). The two of you
discuss quality, length, choices, whatever you want beforehand, &
mail to each other.  This is the way that most tapes get spread
out across the globe, though most tapes made are probably the
dubs off of trades.  One netter who currently has 160hrs, for
instance, got 140 of those hours by net trade.

| What's the best way to go about setting up trades with other
| net.phish heads?
or respond to discussion of tapes (but see below), but you can
also just talk with folks about their favorite songs and versions
and shows, on email or irc or the phone or in lots at shows, and
eventually you'll run into the knowledge of someone's having
something you want. thats much better than just copying
everything you can get your hands on.
| I've arranged a half-dozen or so trades mostly by responding to
| posted grovels, but how do the "old-timers" in this group go
| about it?
through the net and just get in contact every now and then to
trade lists again. keep track of with whom you trade and check in
with them again in 4, 6, or 8 months. You'll be surprised!
| Do you just pick out somebody at random and send them mail
| soliciting a trade?  That seems almost rude, but how do you
| run into more experienced folks with big tapelists other than
| through pure chance?  Picking up specific shows seems as easy
| as waiting for somebody to mention that they have it, or
| posting a specific request, but what if I just want more live
| {DMB} in general?
it's old, very recent, rare, or good quality... actually, with
just about any tape given the current size of the net, there are
bound to be many others doing the same thing.  If every mention
of a tape gets mail responses of 30 requests for that tape, the
net is going to see a HUGE loss of discussions of tapes people
have. That is, if netiquette cant keep up with growth of the net,
the net is going to experience some qualitative losses.
than a general "can I have it" question. Send your list with a
few suggestions at the top; dont just suggest something, cause if
the person has it, he may ignore your request. Dont expect an
answer immediately, and BY ALL MEANS dont hound for an answer;
even that takes time. It may not happen the same day or week; may
take two weeks, but after that you should try again or forget it.
================================================
Sometimes, it seems hard to get something from nothing, but
you've got a few things going for you. First of all, the
generosity of folks on the net.  Watch the net for periodic
"beginner tape offers" and "reverse tape grovels." Details
relevant to each are usually explained with the posting. It might
involve trading, but will probably just require you to send money
or blanks and postage. There's also the possibility to be a leaf
on a tree even if you dont have tapes; in fact, that's a great
place to be on a tree!
And, hey! If you have many tapes (over 50? 100!? 200!?!) post a
message and offer this service to the first five, ten, or fifteen
folks that respond. Have them send you blanks and tape some of
your best for them! You'll be glad you did!

=======================================================
In general netiquette trading terms, the following seem
unless you've agreed otherwise. Don't use dolby unless you've
agreed otherwise (since it cant be undone). Write on the back of
the cassette labels slip unless you've mentioned or asked about
writing on the J-cards. Knock out tabs after recording.  And

E-4: PATCHING IN etiquette (not answered yet)
We need input from tapers (to jeg5s@virginia.edu) to construct an
answer to this.  I realize that there are enormous demands, and
far too little thanks, laid at the feet of tapers, but I also
realize that many of them, at one time or another, have only been
able to patch in. So... what's ok?
|I'm considering the purchase of a DAT deck to tape at Phish and
|other shows, now that I've realized how fun it is to have live
|music around the house.  What's the etiquette involved in
|patching into somebody else's deck who has a better setup than
|you?  Or into a soundboard?  Is it considered appropriate only to
|patch into somebody that you know, or can you just go up to a
|random taper or soundboard guy and ask him/her if you can patch
|into his stuff?
=========================================================
E-5: DCC and DAT, compared and considered
|       Hey has anybody used or bought the new digital tape
| format type decks?  [some text deleted...]  Does this deck
| sound as good as a DAT?
I think it may be time for a new FAQ entry... :-)
Both DCC (Digital Compact Cassette by Philips) and MD (Mini Disc
by Sony)  use a lossy compression method.  Not all of the
original signal will be retained when making copies onto DCC or
MD.  Whether or not it is audibly noticeable may depend on many
things, such as the compression and decompression algorithms, the
audio equipment, or the listener.  The music is also likely to
deteriorate as it goes through multiple generations.  For a
digital format, I believe that this is totally unacceptable.
Quality of good music should not be sacrificed when not
necessary.  At the moment, DAT is the only format (besides PCM
which is somewhat obsolete now) that allows accurate digital
reproduction at a reasonable price, and I recommend DAT over DCC
or MD.  The prices of DAT decks and tapes are generally
comparable or cheaper than DCC or MD, and either (or both) DCC or
MD will probably die out soon.  As Philips has recently said in a
said that better myself!  Go DAT!!! 
|Are DAT decks soon to be a thing of the past?
Soon?  No- DAT is entrenched in the professional and high-end
consumer market.  Eventually?  Yes- once mass storage technology
drastically improves.  That should take a while though, so don't
put off buying a DAT deck waiting for that...         Jens

Re: ** BAD NEWS: V-Day Tree is dead! **

EDOHERTY@MACALSTR.EDU Wed Mar 8 08:08:01 1995


This is not a flame to the tree admin, but this has got to be bullshit.  I mean
there is absolutely NO way that the RSO can keep the Dave Matthews Band
accountable for an individual taping the show from the audience.  The only way
that DMB could get in trouble is if a SBD copy of the show started to float
around.  At that point I could see problems develop.  I mean you could go tape
the RSO any other night you felt like it and what are they going to do?  They
may not like the idea, but I have already provided an elaborate justification

Again, the only problem for the DMB would be if it was a SBD copy which it
obviously is not.  It was already "not allowed" for you to tape it in the first
place, and nothing more can be done about it.  They are not going to go out and
start arresting people for having tapes of their shows.  If you are not making
a profit on it then they have even less reason to do anything.  This is not
going to affect the DMB taping policy or anything as drastic as that.  If a
tree is not run I at least hope that these tapes start to filter out.  If you
have them let me know.  Maybe we could all have them but not put them on our
tape lists...that is how all the other "priv" stuff gets traded....I've gotten
stuff like that.  It will happen just a hell of a lot slower.  I would beg the
tree admin to at least trade the tapes and let it go from there.

Dead Tree and more

messierb@ucsub.colorado.edu Wed Mar 8 08:31:07 1995

I have been told that the V-Day shows was taped by the RSO and will be 
used as material for a CD.  That is very cool.  I don't think it will 
kill us to support a musical organization and it would be really nice to 
have it in PHAT quality on CD.

Please don't post tape lists on the net!  There are enought trade grovels 
as it is, a simple one of two line message seems to work well for me.

And last, please don't reply an message you feel is personal to the net, 
unless it is a cool story that others might want to hear.  I don't think 
may people are interested in how everyone elses trades are going...  Peace

* * TR3 TREE STRUCTURE !! * *

jeg5s@faraday.clas.virginia.edu Wed Mar 8 08:55:08 1995


This is the TREE STRUCTURE announcement and posting
for a two-tape tree of TR3 -- featuring Tim Reynolds,
Warren Richardson, and Robert Jospe, plus many special
Charlottesville guests -- featuring analog soundboards 
tape lengths are 90min and 100min, respectively. (If
you are mailing blanks, postage would be $3 priority,
and about $2 third class.)  (Also, if you're mailing 
blanks and don't know what brand to get, I recommend
Maxell XLII.)  Setlists, bandmembers, and other info
will be listed on *tape labels* which will be passed
down the tree structure. Branch parents, please make
sure to make copies for your leaves; leaves, please
make sure to get copies from your branch parents!

who will copy the show from the masters to DAT.


Each of the 5 DAT leaves has four analog leaves.

Each of the 20 analog parents has up to four leaves.
If there is a summation sign ("+") before a name, that
indicatest that, in their signup form, that person
indicated that they would mail blanks and postage, 
rather than trade.  If your name is preceeded by a
summation sign, your parent will be looking for your
blanks and postage to be in the mail pronto; you should
get them out as soon as possible, so that they can be 
dubbed and returned to you as soon as your parents get
their tapes.

If your name is listed above, please get hopping with
your parent so we can get this tree rolling. If your name
has not been listed yet, find it with the similarly
indented group of four (or 3) under a capitalized name
below (the one not indented quite so much.)  If your name
has a "+" in front of it, you requested to send blanks
and postage, and your parent will be looking for them
within a week or so.

After a series of computer errors this weekend, its
possible that a few names have slipped, and you'll
be taken care of, I promise.

And watch for the upcoming TR3 release, coming

number of her dentist at home so she could make an appointment.
the operator gave her a number to call information in her
hometown, but she thought that the number the operator gave
was the dentist's phone#. she must have tried calling 555-1212 like
6 times before she hung up the phone with disgust saying the operator

recent list problems

hey folks,
lot more personal messages and misdirected postings and such.  someone 
suggested that the new listproc was more confusing to respond to, but i'm 
usual "do you want to reply to all addressees [A] or just the sender [S]?" 
prompt, the message was just sent, and it appeared on the list soon after. 
tape list to the whole net.  now, this sucks.  first of all, it's a waste 
of space for all the people who aren't interested, and secondly, it's 
brought me about twenty grovels that i can't cope with.  i don't think 
this happened because i was in too much of a rush when i posted, although 
if someone can demonstrate that it is i will concede the point.  i humbly 
suggest that _whenever_ one tries to reply to the new list, one posts 
reply to everybody.  to send a personal message, create a message normally 
in e-mail.

does anyone have any comments or discussion?  just my thoughts.

TRADES, ETC. QUESTIONS

Geez,

This is getting pretty fun,  everyone i got your requests to have my list,
more day just in case.  I will send all of you my list and i hope to get one
in return.  Those of you who have sent it already,  thanks.  

Anyway,

Just found about 12 more shows in a shoebox in my closet-  they are all from
a couple of years ago.  It is kind of funny though-  back then i didin't
write the dates or anything on the tapes except songs.  
Well,  for you die hards out there - what do you do with your unidentifiable
shows.  ( i am up to about 20 now)  -  i am positive most of them come from
trax etc.  do i list these as unknown.  You see,  i have them in a database
and reference them and the notes on each show whenever someone wants
something.   Any suggestions would help me-  i am a little crazy about stuff
like this.  

Does anyone have the georgia set litsts?  All of them.  I have about four
shows from there......


LAST AND MOST IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!   Whoever that guy was who got on and told
us that we were ruining it for the old timers or whatever- they were leaving,
about and we don't appreciate the meaning of his music.  

Geez man-  how much more of a fascist can you be?  Do you honestly expect the
thousands of fans to think the same way about dave as you do?  Everyone is
different.  His music means something different to every one who listens to
it .   When a newbie or someone shows up who has never heard some of the more
incredible dave jams-  like with greg howard or even with carter on bongos
instead of trap,  i will sit with him as long as he (or she)  wants and just
play incredible jams-  it doesn't bother me that that person didn't have the
opportunity to see hime live at trax,  or have the friends to trade with.  It
makes me happy that they want to take the time to learn more about dave and
formulate their own opinions.  

Everyone has to start somewhere -  if you aren't going to let them in to this
warehouse where we all can change colors,  then you are the problem.  
Of course,  Dave's music has changed.  But,  remember he is no longer playing
to the generally same group of people every week.  He is trying to sell
something incredible at a very rapid pace!  Right now he only has time for so
much.  I predict there will be a return to the styles of the past-  and hope
that one day we will hear a jam again that is longer than 1 3/4 hrs.   

Don't be a fascist whoever you are -  and dont be an asshole.  Just sit back
and enjoy the ride!  

My Two Cents,

T
ps.  that was not a flame just an opinion!

Re: questions

acox@s850.mwc.edu Wed Mar 8 17:33:21 1995


 hi, i have a few questions/comments maybe some of you can help me with.
 
 1.  i have a tape from the trax, on 1/19/93  and in the second set a 
 woman named kristen comes out and sings a little bit of angel w/ dave.  
 the guy who i got the tape from says kristen used to be in the band.  who 
 is this mystery woman?
 
Kristin Asbury occasionally  would perform with the band... she is from
Charlottesville and is still in the musci scene there.

 2.  i was wondering if i was the only one who noticed this, but i think 
 that steffan never really shows off his talent to much. i've been a fan 
 for pretty long time, and i have some tapes, and i've been to a few 
 shows and i've never heard/seen steffan really go off. granted there are 
 a lot of songs that they do w/ a lot of phat jams. (say goodbye, 
 recently, #36)  but he never really has his time to shine, like boyd, 
 leroi, and carter do.
   
 
If you listen to some old I'll Back You Ups, you will here SDStefan take
the solo which Tim plays on in R2T. Also the other day I was listening
to a show where you could here Stefan slapping his bass, pretty much
getting into it.

I must make a confession now, I believe that instead of replying to
people, I have been sending to the net requests for people to yuse
personal mail instead of forcing the entire net to read it. So for that,
I am sorry, but I plea to people to PLEASE use personal mail unless it
is important to the whole net.

Also,I don't think people will have much luck by posting to the net that
you want tapes. I would recommend waiting and getting on a tree, or if
people post their lists, personally maiil to them and tell them that you
are interested in a show or two, and see if you can trade for it, or if
you don't have any tapes, ask them if they will make copies for you if
you send blanks and return postage. I would like to help out those with
out tapes, but honestly, I pay no attention to the requests made to the
net at large. 

And finally, get the FAQ. There's so much information in there that many
questions would not need to be asked. If you need help getting it, mail
me personally and I'll make sure you get it.

were either wrong or too late.  The winner already knows who he is and has
allready been in touch with me.  Thanks for playing, bye, bye.
Oh, the answer was 7..One for my house, one for my dorm, one for my
footlocker, one for my lab locker, two for highschool lockers, and one for my
car.  Keep an eye out, I will make another newbie offer in a week or so.

Re: Intelligent Question

MOOREC@engr.engr.scarolina.edu Wed Mar 8 18:55:26 1995

I am sure you have already had a reply to this, but if not it's now 
called Say Goodbye and is played at every show I go to for some 
reason(not that I am complaining).  The words are usually different e 
every time they play it, but is basically about two freinds who are 
trapped together for the night because of a snow storm and one of the 
them wants to get romantic for the night and is trying to convince 
the other one that it will not mess up their frienship.

geez, didn't y'alls parents bring you up listening to the beatles?  
Norwegian Wood is the song about the girl who brings a man home to her 
flat, has her way with him, and then leaves him so that she can go off to 
work.  He then lights a fire.  Whether this is a nice friendly fireplace 
fire or fire to burn down her nice norwegian wood decor (which in the 
60's was big in england with all the liberated women) is debatable.

i once had a girl or should i say she once had me

we talked until two and then she said it's time for bed

etc etc...listen to the original sometime.

Mary Karlzen

MOOREC@engr.engr.scarolina.edu Wed Mar 8 19:28:37 1995

There is no DMB content in this at all.  Mary Karlzen came to 
Columbia Sunday night and played at Rockafellas.  She is from Miami 
as far as I know and she has a C.D. called Yelling At Mary.  Her 
voice is pretty amazing and the band that backs her up was not bad.
There were only about 15 people at the show and I do not think that 
the band was very happy about playing there.  I think the only reason 
they came is because they are going to be touring with Hootie this 
summer and Rockafellas is basically where they got there start.  If 
you get a chance to see them you should definitely go,  I am willing 
to sit through one more Hootie show just to see them again.

It's about half sold out.  Anyone else attending?

Could you please tell me -- where in Florida is the Sunrise Musical Theatre?

Also, you do know that DMB will be at the Edge in Orlando on April 10th,
don't you?  The last I checked there were still tickets available.

hi

ideally, if someone has been keeping a running list, if you could mail it

to see So Much to Say and Blue Water and Angel return. Plus, I don't think
they had played any Nature's since last summer either.

thanks,

ps. If I get a thorough list, I'll offer it to others who are interested.

one has a set list from the show, I was not familier with many of the songs.
There was one song in particular...it sounded like Dave was saying "Mandy!"
Is that correct, or was it something else. Help me please! Look foreward to

Hey there fellow minarets and Newbies!!
to the list I posted.  Well, to tell you the truth, that list wasn't really
supposed to be posted.  It was personal mail, and I must have been under the
influence and mailed it to the wrong address.  I appreciate all the
responses, but I have way too many people mailing me right now.  Unless I
have PERSONALLY contacted you as of Thursday, I will not be able to do
anymore trades for about two weeks (after my spring break), but please try
again later.  That list was supposed to have been personal mail to
KARYME@aol.com, and not to the rest of the world, because as we all know,
minarets is not for persoal mail, so I appologize, my mistake.   Please do
not feel rejected, or like i am dicking you over if you have written me and I
have not responded, it is just that i have way to many to respond to.  Thanks
so much for understanding.

Dates for tapes?

TripnBilly@aol.com Thu Mar 9 00:30:32 1995

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone had any EXACT dates for the following

Dancing nancies / best of what's around / maker / minarets / so much to say /
spotlight / satellite / lover lay down / one sweet world / two step / ants
marching / tripping billies

ants marching / say goodbye / warehouse / stream / christmas song / lie in
our graves / angel from montgomery / recently / back you up / typical
situation / you are my sanity    
these might not be correct order, but I got a tape labeled like that, and was
wondering if anyone could help me out.

If anyone knows, mail me PERSONALLY, thanks so much.

Yes the encore sdid begin with the first line from the Samples song

the Samples or a tribute to them??  Does anyone know the relationship the 
two bands have with each other...if they have one at all?
