Hey, I don't know what is worse, #1 this human numan jack-off(Z100) or #2 this dave rumor. It was not on MTV, call Michael Alex Supervising Producer to MTV news and find out, or read eric's post(Thanks eric). MTV call DMB managers and DMB managers laughed. Please, let the WWYSers on minarets learn a that knowing one song does not make one an expert. That human numan guy is an idiot, and he has no life so phuck him. Thanks to Gavin, Robyn, Jeff, Mike C, Bob, etc. DavidTop Permalink
hey now! i apologize for my profanity, but FUCK Z100! send them mail, lots 'o mail. flood them with mai from true DMB fans. tell them about the fact that R2T has sold over 140,000 copies exclusively through the mail (i bet that they don't even know about R2T!). hell, tell them about Recently if you wanna. they suck! tell them about the thousands of DMB fans that were around before UTTAD. wow! i've never sent a negative message to minarets.net! feels weird. talk to you guys later...

Anyone going to the Nashville or Greenville shows next week want to trade some tapes in person? I figured it would be an easy to do it. I am currently looking for any 1st Gen. DMB that I don't allready own or bootlegs of BT, WSP, GSW or anything else along those lines. If anyone has a bootleg of the Urban Shakedancers, I will give a 5-1 trade for it. Let me know guys....Later. JeffTop Permalink
anyone because the band allows taping, i think it is a general community rule that we don't buy bootlegs...jeopardizes taping privileges and gives money to the wrong people... ----------------------------------- delivered by the ILTnet gatewayTop Permalink
(also of Talking Heads fame--??). Anyways, just though I might add to the "I heard DMB in the strangest place" list. All you hoops/DMB fan will probably already know this one, but I'm watching the ODU v. 'Nova game (remember 3 OT's) and CBS fade out to a commercial during one of the TO's was WWYS. Yes, I nearly shit all over myself. Oh well. Until then... RosieTop Permalink
The latest Dave sighting/hearing was last night at the Gap - WWYS came on over the loudspeaker. I agree that WWYS is not their best song and their are easily 15 others that I'd rather hear, but its still cool as shit to be standing in some random store and hear DMB playing. Sorry, but I don't go for this, "He's sold out....it sucks that he is playing such big venues......Oh no, WWYS is in eMpTyV's buzz bin" THIS IS GREAT!!!!!! I'm sorry that he doesn't play at Crossroads every Tuesday - yes, I'm sure that was cool. And I'm sure that it was even cooler when you could walk up to him and request a song. And I know that it was great when he would play that song *for you*. Do you know why he did it? probably for three reasons.....#1 - he loves to play his music. #2 - b/c that is what his audience wanted and #3 getting paid to play his music beats the hell out of having a real job. Personally, I think he still plays for these same three reasons - the only difference is that now he has a much bigger audience and that audience doesn't know him and his music as intimately. Most of the audience only knows UTTAD, and thats not their fault - not everyone has had the opportunity to hear of DMB until now. Assuming that most of the audience only knows UTTAD, that is mostly what he has to play at shows. He still mixes in stuff like #36, Granny, etc. And I feel that this is what he has to do if he wants people to #1 come back to shows and #2 learn that there is other DMB music out there. Remember, this is their job and he they have the right to make as much money doing it as they possible can. Even if it means doing similar shows every night, or doing stupid stuff on eMpTyV's Spring Break - as long as he is playing the music that he loves to play - how can any of us blame him?

this is what i sent Z100...tell me what you think... -greg ---------- Forwarded message ---------- to whatever asshole this may concern, concerning the Dave Matthews Band. First of all, there are two kinds of Weezer, Cinderella, and almost any other hair band) and there are bands that are out there because they love to play and they happen to make a living doing it. Second, we're not pissed because DMB is becoming more recognized, I think its great. The only thing is, we're worried that it might change their style like it has other bands. Then they get really big heads and stop doing what they do best. Also there are a lot of people out there who have been fans for a LONG time (including myself) who feel they have almost a personal connection with the band. We watched them come out of nowhere and finally get a following, we don't want to see them ruined. And you have absolutely NO right e-mailing someone who uses the net for the sole purpose of offending us all. It's a cop-out and it's tactless. I don't care if you think you're some big radio hot shot or whatever, it makes no difference to me, it just supports my claim that not one radio station is decent and actually cares about their listeners. discuss before you discuss it. -greg ....a nowhere man from a nowhere town...Top Permalink

a lead guitar in the band. It's silly to propose that any band *needs* any instrument. I was talking to a friend last night about this very thing. She and her friend are each sitting on some 60-odd metric tons of creative juices and they are built like power-pumps. If they have something to say, one can beat her chest while the other spits at tin cans and they will make beautiful music together. No need for intrumental expertise because nobody is more expert at expressing their energy than they are, capice? If Dave felt the need to go electric to better express what he's got inside then more power to him. If he felt the need to play the soles of his sneakers with bottle caps- then more power to him. I once saw Tim Reynolds at Millers play something like thirteen different instruments in the course of a half hour! He just tooled around the tiny little stage picking things up, swatting them, plucking them, blowing on them- making the noise that needed to get out of him at the time. Then he switched back to his all-important GUITAR and proceeded to jam the night away. The true beauty of music has nothing to do with tone, my friends. Are you going to tell me Joe Cocker is any less expressive than Luciano Pavarotti? Yah- I thought not. Thanks for listening,Top Permalink

Ah, once again. . .here's what I got back from that loser at Z100. . ..thought you'd be interested. Comments, anyone? Molly Molly, You wrote a very cool response, even to a flame, and for that I respect you....you seem to have a grasp on it, so why be upset? I laughed the most at your mall appearance comment, to which I plead guilty. I am capitalist, and don't pretend to be otherwise. I'm in the business to make money...the more the merrier. And i'm pretty sure, that's the plan over at the DMB camp too. Please discuss this stuff in your usegroup...and I think there will be less attacking of Z100, and more of general human nature and motive. HumanTop Permalink
hey all i do not want to start rumors, and do not want to be flamed, but how did all of this shit star getting so out of control? i go to college, and more than a handful of people, who i know love dave are telling me, the biggest dave fan of all, that they heard he had aids. i was really sad last night, almost in tears when a girlfriend of mine told that when she was on deadbase yesterday, some guy claiming to be a dmb fan said that in the haste of all the rumors he called cnn and that dave's doctor was the reputable source in saying it is true. i, of course, do not believe any of it. i just wanted everyone to know how much shit is going on around other newgroups, etc., about dave. i even had my friend go on minarets late last night to check for me, because i was crying. this is not a laughing matter and if someone says they have a docotr as a reputable source, through cnn, or mtv or whatever, i think that's really twisted to go that far out on a limb to tell a lie about someone, or whatever. i'm pissed now, but thank you for not flaming, and being there with the real information about dave and his music.Top Permalink

not posted any replies to some of the stupid things that get posted here, but I can't take anymore. If you don't like negativity skip to the last paragraph. Reality Check #1 - No reason! They don't have or need one, it's not like they're a large corporation like Procter & Gamble ;) If they did need on they surely would not hire a 16 year old! The information in his sig any one of you can get from your DMB CDs. This guy is an obvious fraud and he is obnoxious besides. Flame this little snot-nose back to Nintendo-land!! Reality Check #2 - If someone says they heard something from a friend of a friend, it's probably bullshit. Reality Check #3 - OF YOUR GODDAMN BUSINESS!!!!! (Although Terrets would sure make the concerts interesting ;) Even if you've been listening to Dave since he was teething, his personal life is none of your affair!! Reality Check #4 - watching him play on Chillin' wit' the Weez' doesn't make that person any less of a fan. How much someone likes a band cannot be measured and has nothing to do with how long they've been listening or where they first heard it. If you've been listening to DMB since the beginning consider yourself lucky most of us will never experience DMB in a small setting like you have. But even though I would to see DMB in a club with about 30-50 other people who all appreciate DMB and are all groovin together, I still want DMB to be popular. I would like to see them get bigger than the fucking Beatles! Why? Because they're good and they deserve it. It's selfish to hope that they don't become popular just so you can have them more to yourself. To those who say "Dave's music really speaks to me and these others just like it cause it's on MTV", the Beatles White album spoke to Charlie Manson and look where that got him. I you are a newbie and your first post is a tape grovel or asking about Dave's sexual orientation or if he has AIDS, then you are helping to create this negative attitude towards newbies. say that apart from the above rantings I think this net is great. I am subscribed to several others and I see more helpful info (setlist, tour dates, tape trades), more helpful people (newbie offers, identifying songs), and more intersting band stuff (meeting the guys) than any of the other nets I subscribe to. There are alot of very nice people out there on this net. Sorry for the waste of bandwidth. If you have comment about what I said and it pertains to the nt then post it to the net, if it just pertains to me or you want to flame me send it to me personally at gkinney@s-cwis.unomaha.edu no need to waste the bandwidth on flames. keep groovin' +-------------------------------+-------------------------------+ | | | | Beezelbub | Turns out not where | | Internet Consultant | but who your with | | Procter & Gamble | that really matters... | | 1-800-283-8915 | - Dave Matthews | | | | +-------------------------------+-------------------------------+Top Permalink

Well, since everyone else has posted their replies from z100, I guess I'm gonna follow the herd and do it too...what a lemming I am. It appears that ole Numan has seemed to adapted a civilized tone to deal with minaretters (or maybe it's just me). I don't know why... my 2 letters to him have been pretty vitriolic. However, I do think this letter deserves reading. He does have a couple of good points, and all we are going on is what our NYC-area subscribers are telling us. I think what we're all worried about is what he discusses at the end...about bands making compromises. We don't want DMB to compromise its music for the sake of fame. We don't want to go to shows and hear the same 10 songs every time played the same way. We don't want to not hear the sick jams during Jimithing or Nancies or Minarets b/c the band has been told by its label that it will affect its fanbase. Most importantly, we don't want the band to change its style of music to gain more popularity. The band is due for some new songs now (I mean, 36 songs is a pretty low number to have in the repitoire for being around for 3+ years, and no new songs have been introduced recently excepting the one in Europe), and I think we're all afraid that they're gonna sound like recycled crap that we hear and see on MTV and the radio so much. It may make them more popular, but I can see how I would want to stop listening if DMB started sounding like Counting Crows or Spin Doctors. Not that those bands are bad, it's just that we want DMB to sound like DMB. Nobody else. Arguing about how we wish it was like "the good old days" now is pointless. I got to see DMB at Trax once, and it was a lot of fun, but I don't expect to see them there again. They're big time now, and we should accept it on some levels (ticket availability, prices, hearing them at Kroger, etc.), but what we should also do is to try to make it known to the band and to newer fans that they came from a wonderful background of spontinaiety and fun, and that should never be lost, not for the sake of bucks. The band has something special going on, I just hope it's not lost in the wasteland of overcommercialization. Along with that note, I gotta wonder what the band's ridiculous touring schedule is going to do to them. 4 months on the road, including a trip to Europe, can be grueling. I hope they can keep up the endurance and creativity, cuz I don't want to see a bunch of burnouts at WHFS festival this June (rumor). If anyone has any comments, I'd love to hear them.

DeVito, student, Dept. of Chemical Engineering, University of Notre Dame ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Domenic... Noone here at Z100 ever announced, nor any recorded promo ever aired which stated that we "Discovered" the Dave Matthews Band. Whoever posted that misinformation is a propagandist, who I demand to provide us with proof that we ever did this. I have however gone along with the premise in several of my replies to email here that we did give DMB a great deal of exposure to new listeners...people who otherwise may have never heard of them. To that, I call this a "discovery" for some of our listeners, if you choose to call it that. And I only speak for myself when I write to people. I am in a tough position of being a human contact in this debate. I have to take the flames, and it's pretty hard not to want to fight back. I have not been as self disciplined as I would like to have been, and I regret some remarks I made. The band has joined the money making machine by signing to a major label, and they agreed, and put their name on this promotion. They're going to show up. that's realized there are compromises you have to make in order to be successful. You can send your message directly to the band and tell them you don't want them involved in these promotions ---talk to Dave, tell him you don't want it, and see what he tells you. I'm done saying what i've had to say. And it's up to you the fans to make the changes if you don't like it. Human Numan Midday djTop Permalink
Folks, I just read on rec.music.gdead that the longtime soundman for the Dead, Dan Healy, will be doing sound for DMB in May. Is this true? I know how bad rumors can be, but this doesn't seem out of the question. On a related note, if this is true, what will become of our Beloved Jeff Bagby? Will he be relegated to hawking merchandise in the lots? Let's hope not. Also, I read a rumor here that DMB will be opening for the Dead in Las Vegas in mid-May. That would be one of the all-time sweetest shows ever! I can't imagine what would happen if LeRoi came out to jam with Well, I'm done rambling for now. If anyone can offer any assistance regarding substantiation of these rumors, it would be appreciated.

Well - I wrote a nice little peaceful, and firm letter to this radio station I just like you musical geniouses -- contrary to popular opinion and your com mercial, YOU ARE NOT the first to hear of Dave Matthews and his wonderful band . . .

I know on one of my boots, leroi and boyd go into Pop goes the Weasel...kinda cool. Actually, i was just listening to my 11-7-94 irving plaza show and i heard (IMHO) the funniest thing i've ever heard dave say. Just as he and tim came back on stage from a break, people start throwing stuff on stage, and dave comments that he's gonna end up with so much shit that he won't have to buy christmas presents. He then goes on, "Speaking of shit, there's this japanese company that's gonna make sewage into sausage... Yup, we're gonna wake up in the morning and have a Poop Tart... We'll say, mmmm, honey, this is good shit... this is the best shit I ever had!..." Dave would be a good standup comedian... he's a pretty funny kinda guy, dan dans@cloud9.netTop Permalink

Hello all, Last time I saw Dave cruisin' around C'Ville by the UVA corner which must have been sometime early 1993), he was driving a 1980-2 Plymouth Reliant station wagon. I am not kidding. It was a lovely shade of olive green. I remember this because a friend of mine knew him and Dave waved and beeped as he drove by. I was confused 'cause he doesn't know me from a hole in the wall. That's my $0.02. Steve M. smm7k@virginia.eduTop Permalink

I think the reason that Dave might be getting so much air time in malls, the gap, coffee shops, and yes even Taco Bell is that all these places subscribe to cable radio. They pay to have no commercials. Anyway on this cable radio thing there is a Folk Rock Channel that plays a lot of DMB, FJB, Dead, and a whole lot of other good shit!Top Permalink

I was just making a point. z100 has been doing this type of shit for too long and it has got to stop sometime. when i was channel surfing i even heaed the dj even said lets go out and buy this album and make it go gold or platinum. peace mikeTop Permalink
Forget Z100, they're not worth wasting a single second of the day over. Don't give them the pleasure of getting any of our comments. They aren't worth it. Fuck'em, SGTop Permalink
For those who did not catch Eric's posting today, DAVE DOES NOT HAVE AIDS If I have to read another fifty "Does he?" postings, I'm going to blow some serious chunks, and promptly unsubscribe. He's OK folks! It has been confirmed by folks who know the man! He just wore some baggy clothes and a five o'clock shadow on HOB, and some knucklehead decided to start a nasty rumor. With luck, the people on this net will soon start killing the rumor, instead of spreading it. Get out there and call the misinformed DJs, etc., and set 'em straight! Stop feeding the fire. See y'all at Duke on Friday! -Evan "what I need is all around me" -----------------------------end------------------------------------- Eric's Posting (thanks, guy): Joseph, Everyone on the net has heard the rumors, so saying it again won't solidify anything at this point. I'm not trying to be rude, but I guess we're all in denial - even if the damn rumor is true. It is obvious how much everyone on this net loves Dave, the band, and most of all, the awesome music that they have given us; therefore, no one wants to see a tragic ending to any of the above. In an effort to find-out the truth about all these rumors, I called Coran Capshaw (DMB's manager) and John Alagia, the band's producer and close friend of David's. I have been an friend of Dave, Carter, and John Alagia for about two and one half years, and everyone I have spoken with has assured me that Dave is fine. As for MTV and CNN, I don't know where the hell they got their information, but it has caused much pain and anger to Dave, the band, their management, and of course, all of us - the fans and friends of the band. I'm sure that Dave will do something to address this after they return tonight, but until then, let's all (on the net - the truly informed) do what we can to hush these stupid rumors, and let the band and David handle the rest. We owe it to them. Respectfully, Eric EricsonTop Permalink

I've got a tape from 5-5-92 called Acoustic AWTJU. It is my favorite tape but the quality really sucks. If anyone has a HQ or just plain decent soundboard copy of this show please let me know. Also, if you can tell me where it was and what "AWTJU" means, I'd appreciate it. I also have a show from Van Riper's Music Festival, UVA, Spring '93. I'm looking for the date of this show. Ok, one more. I've got a tape simply marked, "Dave Mathews at Woodberry Forest." I need a date. The set list goes Seek Up Tripping Billies Recently-- Satellite One Sweet World Jimmy Thing Song That Jane Likes Rhyme and Reason There is also someone singing with Dave on Sat, and JT, who is he? Thanks for the help, much appreciated!Top Permalink
Well guys, While perusing the Dead net I came across a tasty little tidbit that I thought everyone would want to know about. Dan Healy, one of the Dead's longtime soundmen, has been working with Dave and the boys, and it seems that they'll be appearing on Saturday Night Live on April 15. I must admit, I had thought they might show up eventually, but not quite this soon. ALSO, word around the campfire, (and the campfire is a little more reliable here in Charlottesville) is that Dave will be opening for the Dead in Vegas towards either the end of the Dead's spring tour or the beginning of the summer tour. Either way, this is a pretty big step because the Dead usually play about five shows in Vegas and they're usually some of the best shows on tour. But then again, that's just the word around the campfire. Oh yeah, has anyone been taping any shows in Europe? If so, I've got at least 100 crispy, HiQ hrs. that are yours for the trading. just usin' that little jimi thing to keep me swingin' Brett StoneTop Permalink

I was astonished to read one of the posts in Minarets 126... It kinda pissed me off a little that a DJ would flame the shit outta one individual the way Human Numan did... so here's the plan... ANYONE WHO LIVES IN ** N.Y.** please post the phone number of Z100 on this base... ANYONE WHO IS PISSED AT Z100... call em up! Get in their heads... why send e-mail that can be deleted... a voice is heard!!! of course they can hang up on you, but you have to realize that they are NOT going to hang up on EVERY CALLER that calls the station!!! HA HAAAA!! SO, you can at least send them home on edge after a day full of dasterdly phone calls!!! Hate mail is cool... but they have a delete function too! "Fight the power" -RageTop Permalink
Holy shit...just got back from an UN-believable show...where to begin? Recently Lie In Our Graves (different intro) Dancing Nancies So Much To Say Pay For What You Get Norwegian Wood (unfinished) PFWYG Minarets Typical Situation (dedicated to Dave's new little friend Heather) Rhyme & Reason Jimi Thing New (that's what it was called on the official setlist!) * Ibyu ** Say Goodbye What Would You Say Two Step Tripping Billies I'll Back You Up The Song That Jane Likes Satellite Warehouse Ants Marching Dave on 6-string acoustic guitar Stefan on 4-string acoustic fretted bass Boyd on violin Carter on bongo, cymbals, chimes, other percussion (in Rangers attire!!) Leroi on sax The show was at The Academy in NYC downtown, and it was sponsored by the local "pop" station here Z100...there's been a lot of bitching going on about it, so you probably know. Anyways, the show was free, and thanks to Coran Capshaw, the manager of DMB, we got free tix (otherwise you had to win them through fucking Z100). Caroline Fitzpatrick posted "DIE Z100 DIE" on the net, Coran read the post, and felt our sympathy. So, he got us 4 free tix. Wow. So we're in the show finally. The set was amazing. I thought they'd be videotaping for MTV tonight, it looked just like an MTV Unplugged set. The backdrop was the fire dancer logo, it was awesome. Very cool. They will be filming tomorrow for ANTS MARCHING, and we got passes to be there...how cool is that??? Anyway, it was a kind-of sit down show until the end when things fired up. There was so much bullshit Z100 promotional stuff all over the Academy, it was sick....really awful....Security absolutely blew!!! We got up to dance for Two Step, and the big ol' fat guy comes over and tells us to sit down...he even shoved one of the other guys we met at the show. Whatever. Another thing was NO TAPING!!! I asked the soundboard guy what that was all about, he said, "Union rules, no taping!" Either it was the Academy's policy or fucking Z100's, that sucks. It was such an _amazing_ show...... * - this is what it said on the official setlist. When we got BACKSTAGE ALL ACCESS VIP PASSES and went backstage, I asked Dave what the name of the new song was...he just said, "I don't know, I don't know" He was pretty trashed, as was Leroi. He said it was the first time it had ever been played and we were the first to hear it! ** - anyone know this song? It said "ibyu" on the official setlist as well, and I swear I had heard it before, but now I'm stumped.... *** - This was hilarious...Boyd is about to go into the verse "Flies in the kitchen..." but he forgot the words and just walked away from the mic! I had to yell out, "Flies in the kitchen Boyd!" Finally Dave took over the lead until Boyd could compose himself. =) I forgot to ask him about that backstage..... Okay, so we're backstage, and talking to all the band members. They're soooooo nice and appreciative of their fans, it's great. They were just like I had imagined they would be. Leroi was drunk and just really cool and mellow, Dave was surrounded by adoring fans who kissed and hugged him, and he was having an absolutely wonderful time! Boyd was very cool and mellow, answered my questions about violin playing...I told him that I played classical style for 14 years and was trying to follow some of his solos, but he just told me,"Don't follow anything, just go with it." Stefan was all bundled, sitting in a corner off-stage signing things, being his humble 20-year old self. We didn't get to meet Carter Beauford (on the drums :) ) They all signed my stick figures t-shirt, so cool.... I wish everyone on Minarets had a chance to be at this thing. Right before the show was about to begin, they announced that they were handing out free tickets at the door....I wish you all could have been there. Seth, Tony, Marianne (I asked Leroi if he saw you -- I haven't even met you yet!), Caroline, Jen Giroux (from UMASS), and Rachel....hope you all had as much fun as I did tonight!!! Still reeling, Tom(o) ps- it's now official, from LEROI himself, DMB will be opening for the Grateful Dead in Las Vegas, NV...anyone want to fly out there with me? ;)Top Permalink
back from a kickin' show at the academy, despite the z100 hype. first, Recently Lie in our Graves Dancing Nancies So Much to Say Pay For What You Get Minarets Typical Situation Ryme and Reason Jimi Thing New Song IBYU (another new one, don't know what it stands for) Say Goodbye WWYS Two Step Tripping Billies I'll Back You Up The Song that Jane Likes Satellite Warehouse Ants Marching Christmas Song (DAve and Carter) Angel From Montgomery (Boyd lead vocals) Watchtower z100 was a pain in the ass, as usual. we got in, planning to push our way to the front, and found chairs set up in nice little rows with security guards hurding us it. the concert didn't start till about 9 and we got ther around quarter to 8 so we had to sit and listen to z100 for an hour. luckily, we were sitting next to some real dave fans, instead of some that we met outside that were either around 13 yrs old or forty with no clue as to who dave was. jet-lagged, asked us all to kind of chill, and most people did. it kind of sucked that we couldn't dance, but it was alright, really mellow at times, and the whole crowd did get up when the band was really jamming (warehouse, ants, watchtower). one, i would do anything to get a copy. some one what taking pictures and i have his phone number so we could set up something. had appearently heard. we're going back tomorrow to some place where they are shooting the video of ants. according to the manager, we'll be watching the band go through the motions of playing until they'vs dhot all the croud scenes. story... when dave said they were going to play so much to say, all the little ones thought they said wwys, and cheered their asses off jsut to be dissappoited. poor babies. they played so much, and i am still in awe, so i am sorry if i am not giving many interesting details. i can say is if you can get a copy, DO IT!!!!! Caroline and Tom, a friends i went to the show with, are also posting and they will probably much more thorough. i also have a cool dave and the band story, but i just can't write it out today. so you might be hearing from me soon. sorry kiddies, but i have to go sift through 135 minarets messages because i forget to check my e-mail. again (if you are still reading) anyone that taped the show, get in touch, i might have some cool pictures. later. jenn jgiroux@student.umass.eduTop Permalink
boys and girls i just returned from a most incredible, amazing, acoustic extravaganza. i am blissfully content at this moment in time. the following is the set list from 2nite's show at the academy, nyc. afterwards is the story. enjoy, and may you all be as fortunate as i.... recently lie in our graves (with cool new intro) dancing nancies so much to say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pay 4 what you get minarets typical situation (dedicated to dave's "new little friend heather") rhyme and reason jimi thing new (we asked dave the name afterwards...he said he's not sure yet) ibyu (something else new!... it said ibyu on the official set list?!) say goodbye wwys 2 step!!!!!!!!!!! tripping billies i'll back you up song that jane likes satellite warehouse ants marching (which is the song for the new video) angel from montgomery (boyd on lead vocals...he forgot some of the words midway through the song...it was so funny!) watchtower needless to say, it was an incredible set. now for the story. ok, we got tickets through an alternative method, ie Z100 did not give them to us. but that's another story altogether..... anyhow, when we got there, we had to wait in the cold for quite some time before they let us in. we got to talking to the people around us. the women in front of us had never even heard any of the music. they just won the tickets, so there they were.... it didn't look good. but, there were four of us; we had made signs with say goodbye, two step, and lie in our graves written on them so we were planning to make our way to the front and dance like crazy with our signs etc. when we got in we saw that Z100 had set up chairs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it wasn't general admission, you had to sit in these cramped little plastic chairs!!!!! at this point it really didn't look good! and when the dj for Z100 started talking into the microphone etc, i thought that all hope was lost. but, as soon as the band came out on stage, i knew that everything was gonna be ok. dave told everyone to sit down, that they were gonna play a quietr set, and we had to be quiet too in order for them to "hear themselves." you already read the set list, so you know what they played. rest assured that there was the usual amount of dave dialog between songs. as i said, the new intro th lie in our graves was amazing, never heard it b4. they actually played so much to say!!!!! i thought that they rarely played it anymore bc they liked it better with tim or something. we kept holding up our big posters and every once in a while dave and stephan would look at them and laugh. we held up they say goodbye posters at one point, and he saw them and smiled, laughed, and then launched into say goodbye. he did the same thing with 2 step. i'm not in any way implying that he changed the set list, it was just a cool coincidence. both of the new songs were cool, especially the second, about which he said something like " ya'll are the first ones to hear that one. hope you don't mind" boyd forgot some of the lyrics on angel and started cracking up. he couldn't even get it together enough to sing, so dave started singing at that point. the whole show was fantastic, not at all exclusively catering to the Z100 crowd, which is what i was afraid of. anyway, i know i'm taking up a lot of space and i'll probably get flamed for it but i just want you guys to share the exitement. after the show we hung around in the f*cking freezing cold until some random guy gave us these "vip" passes so we could get inside and go upstairs to the party. leroi was the first one i saw...drunk as hell and completely amiable. he tried to sign my poster and fucked up so he made the fucked up signature into this little face that looks like a condom with a smile and then signed it. it was nearly impossible to get through to dave, who was surrounded by pre-teen girls saying stuff like "you're just like, the most, like, amazing musician, and like, your music is like, so amazing." dave was being completely gracious of course, but when i finally squeezed past his little crowd and bodyguard i told him that i knew him from his "bayou days." i think he found it refreshing.....at least i like to think he did. anyway, he signed my poster (the say goodbye side) and drew this little face that looks like a self portrait...maybe him singing halloween? we couldn't find any of the others but we ran into this other random guy who gave us these "all access" passess that were supposedly even better than the vip passess and we went backstage. we ran into boyd who was sooooooo cool and we talked to him about violin etc for a while. he signed all our shit too. then we found stephan, all scrunched up in a corner by himself! he drew a picture on my poster too!!!! he said rthat he was still kind of cofused as to how he dropped out to join the band and here he is and he hadn't played bass until then!!!! after seeing his drawing i said that he and dave should drop out of the band and be artists for awhile. (don't worry---i was just joking!) he said that they had actually talked about doing just that!!! i hope he was joking too!!! i'm tired now so i'm going to bed. i bet you all really wanted to know that little detail. anyhow, they were all so cool; the show was amazing, and i'm going to be in the video!!!!!!! send me mail if you want to know anything i left out...................Top Permalink
I know that everyone hates grovels for tickets or trades but I ask that you make an exception for me this once. I need to come up with two for the show on the 18th in Memphis. I will pay top price and throw in some bagbys for you. If you don't have tickets and would still like to trade send me a personal email with your list and we can talk. But tickets are what I really need. Also anyone in the Bay Area give me a buzz if you are going to the Frisco or San Jose shows. Also the first three new people( I hate the term newbie) that email me and can tell me what city Stanford is in will get a nice copy of my second generation Roseland tape with Trey and Popper. thanks for listening. later, KevinTop Permalink
Gainesville, it is time to mourn. It got cancelled. According to the local radio station here (not nearly as bad a Z100, I used to hear it when I lived up north) the reason it was cancelled is because Dave has typhoid fever. Actually, the real reason is so they can go up to New York early to prepare for their Saturday Night Live appearance (yes, they will be on SNL on 4/15). Although I'm happy to see them on national TV, I'm sort of pissed that they had to cancel the Gainesville show for it. Why do they need to go their early anyways? To make sure that they remember how to play WWYS and Ants? Sorry. I'm just being bitter. As for them rescheduling for Gainesville, I have no idea if they will or when they will. cancelled as well. For all those that were planning to go to these, I quote the immortal words of Bill Clinton, "I feel your pain". SNL to help soothe my pain. Or maybe they're going up early because they're in a skit! Any ideas as to what DMB would do in a skit, if by some rare chance thet're actually in one? Sounds like a cool topic for discussion, y'all (better than hearing about Dave having lupus). -Later -Jared Medina -murmur@grove.ufl.eduTop Permalink
I am pretty new to DMB (newbie :), I don't have any tapes of any kind, but I would like to start my collection. I have a friend with some tapes that aren't labeled that I could get if I absolutely have to trade something. Anyway, I am especially interested in a show with Christmas Song. Also I attended my first DMB show at Penn State on 2/12/95 and I was wondering if anyone else was there and possibly had a set list. (I was kinda out of it for some of the songs) I would also like to get a tape of that if anyone has one.

Any wayz...I was just wondering what the deal is with Radio Stations playing singles only, becuase this is a mighty big station, yet them they play a lot of the album...doesnt make any sense...someone has gotta get the power and the money or whatever to get themselves a mighty nice FM station and play good music for once... ah fuck, it was perty cool how he said it but he just talked about the mainse mainstream and kids and TV and how we are just few fed d crap..well shit in capitalist America you would think someone would be bright enough to attemp to possibly enlighten the massrs masses with ant- anti= anti-crap what aht whatever that entails.... and we are just starting (played for about 2 weeks now) and we are playing some Dave covers for Battle of the Bands at mi my high school.. anywayz, we are playing Ants for the tryout and as I was in my car dream dreaming about playing it, Ants comes on the radio...perty fucking mindblowing.. Pardon, m Pardon my langueag language... if i only had a backspace key and some PCP... well, maybe just a backspace key.. Mandatory Keith imatation(spelling): hi...im ki keith... i rule... everything..needs dots..... i rulel again... if it wasnt for me, none of you..would even know, who Dave matthews is... im going to tree the world.... if..periods..didnt exist...i would still rule.... i heard..that dave has aids... tree this... go climb a tree.... my name is keith...i am god.. no i am not drunk... there is unlimited bandwith... 100 fucking posts...............Jesus H Christ..... ok, sorry...

Seal Edwin McCain Tool DMB Indigo Girls HOOLY SHIT! Carter Beat Beauford on the durackadousodkcuaosdkeudfusdoiuesdfoiuge..... pop pop pop Fuck Stefan, I know your good so why dont you just fucking play that thing like all the other guys doo.....is it cuz your so perty.. IF you cant bee with the one you love, fuck everything that moves. Well, my friend say said that Dave should change it tyo to anything that breaths because everything that moves is very weird and people would think he was weird and stuff and he could get diseases or t s seomthing... Ok, can anyone expalin to me why Tripping Billies is about and LSD trip? S Cuz i find that song so religious and wonderous and symbolic but i find nothing that would convince my me its about taking too much acid... also, WWYS is a very cool relgious sys symbolic son..you may not like the imagery, but I think dave is a geniou genious...you know..we need to start talking more about Dave's religion because truthfully, his lyrics arent just superficial catch y rhymes they SAY THINGS!!!!! Fuck, when I firts first heard UTTAD (i bought it one on a whim, never even heard em before) I thought it was the most special music ever because not only did it kick my ass but the lyrics were tied in so intricately with the message and the soul of the music and it makes totaly sense and everyo song seems to deal with this strange religion that dave promotes (perhaps subs consciously...) and I think it is cool. Warehouse, in my opinion, is the most obvious exaple of this sermon of Dave...I could get into more detail about it, but I am sure you guys feel the same way...My love, I love to stay here.. She See the thing is, I would nt be so ardent about p spreading the message of dave if I wasnt so effected by it...In fact, when I went to see them in concert for the first time, I was so deeply effected that I expericnes experienced what I felt t was "enlightenment" in the the stricted Zen Strictest Zen Buddhist sense of the word... no exageration here...man, if took me somewhere..it took me away from the unreality("cyu cuz of Original Sin" ) and took me to the truth of the Warehouse... I love you David Matthews and the rest of ht eband kicks my ass too and I hope the world figures it out someday cuz man it would be so chill hif we could sit around in intellectual ciric cirlces and shoot the shit about the religion of Dave and a amn man b go to your barber and have him cut your hari hair while Seek up is blasting and your talking about the symbolism in that song that the guy is cutting your hear hair and shit.... fuck man, seek and emotion...cuz you dont need to ah fuck it..this is weri dhis shit a im saying and y you all probably dont apprecitae this long message but man i guess with 100 more to read you might not mind...i mean at lesat least it aint that Z100 discussion or t nothing man maybe ill type up this apa paper i wrote for english calls class about my DMB expericence a I got an A on it and my teacher talked about it with the other classes and we had like thi gh this big discussion about it Did you know practically my whole school is going to see DMB on May 13 at the Paladium in LA...2 200 people are taking well, not 200, but a lot....are b renting a bus and they are going to drive up there o in a fucking rented bus that is how massively my school is into that band...mayber maybe i should stop giving bab bagbys to everyone I know becuase then maybe well h shit that is dumb share the wealth... man ho how i long for Ben and Keith na d Kevin and crew...you guys are the shit...

Well guys, While perusing the Dead net I came across a tasty little tidbit that I thought everyone would want to know about. Dan Healy, one of the Dead's longtime soundmen, has been working with Dave and the boys, and it seems that they'll be appearing on Saturday Night Live on April 15. I must admit, I had thought they might show up eventually, but not quite this soon. be a prettty long haul, I'd say. I still have no place to stay in Wilmington... my grand plans of camping/gathering have never materialized... I just got turned down! for a dave trade by tree child of mine. SO... If anyone wants a copy of 7/30/94 Brown's Island, the 1st one to mail me can take the tree child's place. DMB _and_ the Dead... man I live too far from Vegas... Take it easy, y'all! -DashTop Permalink
Numan and send it to Red Light Management via their internet consultant. Wouldn't it be nice for this DJ, who thinks we're a small group, to get a big ass-whipping from his station manager? His job is to play tunes, not to insult his listeners or anyone, for that matter, in the name of Z100.Top Permalink
Wow, I'm bumming big time. Front page of the student newspaper this morning in Wilmington (or Greenville is it?), I bet is a goner too. Anybody know if the Apr 10 show in Orlando has tickets left? Brian Cancelling a gig for Letterman is one thing, but for a lame ass show like SNL?

hey all. i heard last night that a few shows will probably be canceled.... due to the Saturday Nite Live thing... ....Boyd called a dude i know and invited him to New York for next Friday AND Saturday...fuck, i was jonesin' for a show, Wilmington that is, and now it seems to have become a ghost... oh well, the wait will just make it all the more tastier next time. also, now i can sit in the privacy of me own home on a Saturday.... with no clothes on my bod... and see a DAMABA show. cool. never thought i'd be able to see DMB live while legally nude. god bless America!!!Top Permalink
What is the status on the fucking show at Greenville? I am going to personnally kill Dave Matthews if that show is cancelled. DAMN. I am offical protesting SNL now because it has fucked up my incredible weekend of two Dave shows at a weekend in Atlanta. Anyway, let me know the status of the Greenville show because I don't live near there and really don't want to drive over and have them say "Fuck you, shows cancelled." Later.....JeffTop Permalink

Hey everyone, this idea could really work. Bad traders suck. Keep a list of them at the bottom of you boot lists then when trading w/ someone add their's to your's. jcdavis@wam.umd.edu lippe@u.washington.edu These are takin' from recomendations on minarets the last two days. I don't want to get screwed. They will remain on my list untill I suppose they publically redeem themselves. happy trading...

I called the Greenville Auditorium today and found out that as of about noon today (4/6) the show is still on......I can only hope .Top Permalink
So, DMB is opening for the Dead in Veags!!!! I can't picture DMB playing the Silver Bowl. I was there in 91 and the place is big. Is it true that the Dead's old soundman, Dan Healy, is now doing the sound for DMB??? If he is, then they will sound fantastic in Vegas. Does anyone have anymore concrete info on DMB dates in Europe in June?? Just gotta find out when and where they are playing. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Email me. Later . . . Kanada Kev =8 ) ps - how's the traffic over there on Minarets? It was gridlocked when I unsubbed!Top Permalink
Well, this is the same day as the show in Wilmington, so that would be a prettty long haul, I'd say. Take it easy, y'all! -Dash The Wilmington show has been moved to Sunday the 16th. At least that is what all the flyers from Ziggy's say around campus for the last few days. Can anyone confrim this? Thanks.Top Permalink
Wow, I'm bumming big time. Front page of the student newspaper this morning in Wilmington (or Greenville is it?), I bet is a goner too. OK, who's got official info on this?? I will be very sad if there's no Wilmington show. If anybody knows what's really going on, post it! I think I'll go call Poindexter's now and see if they've got a scoop. I can't believe that they would switch the show to the 16th and play on easter sunday. That would be a bummer. OH, and about ibyu... It can't stand for I'll Back You Up when they played I'll Back You Up a coupla songs later in the set. Somebody got the 7/30/94 tape already! -Dash :)Top Permalink
snip The subject says it all. thanx, Dan paste which is CBS. But will he be on something else? Most likely. He seems to other "non-performing" appearances such as interviews on Alternative Nation or CNN. each visit. Now, with the Flowbee, I can cut my own hair at home very easily! Just pick the proper attachment and I've got a beautiful new 'do in no time at all! And the best part about it is that it pays for itself after a mere three uses!" for CourtTV.

Hi! someone could please send me any CONFIRMED info on Dave's illness, if there is one. Someone at the radio station here suggested that I do a Dave Tribute Show this Saturday instead of my usual HORDE show. Of course I want to find out from you guys if you think this is appropriate. Please e-mail me directly. Thanks.Top Permalink
Hey minareters........ ITS TRUE!!!!! ITS TRUE!!!!!!! DMB will be opening for the Dead in Las Vegas May 19,20,21 This is not a rumor from my little brothers best friends mothers sisters bridge partner who used to know someone who lived near C'ville and has been listening to Dave since 9/27/94..... The info came straight from the DMB Concert Hotline (804-980-9636). This is so cool! And I'm goin'! I have my mail order tix for 5/20 in hand. If any other minareters will be there, drop me a line and lets get something goin' before the show. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Top Permalink
Oh yeah......in all my excitement, I forgot to mention that the April 14 appearance on SNL was also confirmed on the hot-line. Between Alt Nation, HOB, ABC in concert, and SNL, we've got a pretty nice video tape workingTop Permalink
hey now! well as those of you who are not digested have read, i posted a note this morning regarding the initials "ibyu". without looking at the rest of the had looked closely, i would have seen that that song was played a few tunes later. my mistake. so, the initials "ibyu" are still a mystery. in the future, i will take more time to think before posting. a good lesson for all of us! (especially those like me who have been here awhile and should know better!!!) talk to you guys later... OGES (a.k.a. Jonathan Oglesby) Catholic University, Washington,D.C. here's to hoping Z100 will answer the reality phone, and stop claiming DMB!Top Permalink
wow. mike's post was a glimpse of the minarets of days gone by. very nice. anyone who flames this guy needs to go outside and breathe a little more....i think that that may be a good reason to finally unsubscribe now, leave this place with fond memories of goofiness and creativity, not back biting and flaming, bad-trader lists and aids rumors. ouch. come visit the aware net and see me sometime... spoons, katrina --Top Permalink
Poindexter Records says- Dave will be playing Wilmington on April 16th. The gates will be opening earlier than previously scheduled, "like, noon. First band will start around 2pm" Anyone who was going to pick up tix at Poindexter's the day of the show can now pick them up at the venue gates. (This is cos, on Sundays, Poindexter's doesn't open until after the show's already started.) I bet this is going to discomobulate people since the show is no longer on a weekend. I know I'm juggling my work schedule around. I'll call again closer to show day and see if this is all still true. -Dash :)Top Permalink
Thanks guys, Really. I mean without you there is probably no way that anyone would have ever heard of the Dave Matthews Band. I mean there are virtually no recordings of them, and since they don't tour much we never get to hear them. that Rock-n-roll is all about. You are all so selfless. I won't be satisfied until you make the Dave Matthews Band as successful and long lasting as the Spin Doctors. thank you for encouraging the emerging music scene of America. Also thank you for introducing me to so many other great bands while I sit and wait to get tickets. I don't think I could have heard Green Day or Offspring anywhere else. EricTop Permalink
Hey all, Just wanted to tell you all that the above message was sent to Z100. It is obviously (to us) sarcastic. But I want to see if they'll take me seriously, especially since they said they'd delete flames ("hate mail" as they called it). If a reply is forthcoming, I will forward it to everyone.

Hello, and 2) would some people like to hook up and hang out, or go camping w/ us. Kind of like some big DMB celebration type of thing. Let me know.Top Permalink
