"Instead of a trap door, what about a trap window? The guy looks out it, and if he leans too far, he falls out. Wait. I guess that's like a regular window." --Jack Handey I'm not a huge post-man on the minarets.net, but I read it thoroughly whenever it comes in, and I have been a huge DMB fan for about two+ years. But enough about me. I was wondering if anyone knows about a summer tour schedule for Dave. I'm currently in frigid Ann Arbor for school, but soon I will be back home in Atlanta. Thus, any news on shows within 6-7 hours of Atlanta? I am now jamming to New Year's Eve 1993 (that's 12-31-93, not 92) from Richmond, VA. It's a great show, for even though I am not a rap fan, a local rap band called the "Dry Poetics" comes on right as Boyd is completing True Reflections and raps a bit with DMB in the background. I would like to know if anyone has a better copy of this show, for mine is only mediocre. Also, anybody know anything else about this "Dry Poetics" band? Thanks. Moreover, I have about 40+ hours of Dave, if anybody interested in trades. Later. Zac zdaq@umich.eduTop Permalink
I know this has nothing to do w/ any of the bands listed above, but I have a question to ask. Every time I see the DEAD or hear one of their albums it just makes me want to follow them. Is this reaction common? Sorry, just curious.Top Permalink

I was at a part, when much to amazement trippping came onto the radio (96.5 the Peak). After the song, the D.J. went on to say, "Dave is O.K.--he does not have AIDS. The band cancelled one date so that they could do Saturday Night Live. One week from tonight." (Keep in mind that i'm paraphrasing and have been drinking.) JPatTop Permalink
This may sound like a really stupid question, but here goes. Does anyone know if there is a Web site set up for DMB. I know I've heard discussion about this before, but I was wondering if anyone knows what the URL is for it if there is one, and if there isn't one I would like to try and make one up. Anyway, if you read this and know anything about it, let me know. | / | \ | :}---------------{:}-------------------------------{::}--------{:Top Permalink
Greetings, A friend of mine at UVA is insisting he has a tape of a show of the dmb playing with popper of btrav and trey of phish doing a cover of watchtower. I think he's full of it, but he insists he does. Does this show exist, and if so, is there anyone out there who would like to trade for? thnx in advance... matt "The only thing I know how to do is to keep on keepin' on" -Dylan phish encore, phishman started out doing a drum solo, and then as they were bringing out the pieces for a second drum set, carter came out and started banging on the cymbals over phishman's head. then he took over his own set, and all the rest of dmb came on stage and did an _amazing_ watchtower. it was truly the best concert i've seen. i don't think popper was there, but two days earlier dmb played with blues traveler in raleigh, and both boyd and dave got on stage at different times with them. dave actually called popper 'one of my inspirations.' i've got a tape of the phish show and the encore, but unfortunately it doesn't have dmb's set.Top Permalink
Salut mes amis! Hey, could someone please tell me if DMB is playing for Little Five weekend, down at Indiana University? A friend that goes to school there told me that it was "official," but lately, "official" seems to have lost a little of its meaning. I really hope their playing because I think that I'm going through some sort of withdrawl. I NEED to see the boys live again! Hope to hear from you guys soon and thanks.

Tonight was the 5th time that I have seen DMB over the last year and a half and I would have to say that it was probably the band's worst performance. They did not seem into really playing like they used to, probably because they are constantly touring. The band appeared to be out of touch with its audience. They did not connect with enthusiasm that many people had going into the show. about the duke show was the awful echo. that's what you get when you put a concert in a basketball stadium. but if you watched dave at all during the show and particularly during ants you would have seen that he was completely into the music. he was really jamming, and as he said after the charleston show, 'last night was just psyched. because the music and the crowd were just (unreproduceable noise/facial expression/gestures). Boyd was absolutely insane. he had some crazy jams (most notably dancing nancies) and he kicked it, plain and simple. when he came off stage before the encore, he was completely drained. he had so much enthusiasm and energy for the show, and he put it all out. i loved boyd's performance that night, and i really enjoyed the show. i hope most everyone else who was ther did too. ps- here's a little funny/scary tidbit from the charleston show. my friend and i noticed some people leaving after big head todd's set, and were debating the possibility of there actually being people there who simply had never heard of dave matthews band. we'd just about ruled this out when a guy in front of us said to his friend (while dmb ws on stage), 'is this big head todd or dave matthews?' his friend didn't have an answer. that show was probably the best i've seen. was anyone else there? i didn't see any tapers, but if someone did tape the show, please let me know. thanks.Top Permalink
oh, i forgot to mention something else. i was talking with carter after the show last night, and the band is making two more trips to europe before the end of this july. AND not only are they playing with bon jovi there (only in europe), they're also playing with nin and STING! is anyone else just completely rocked by the concept of dave and sting on stage together. apparently sting is a big dave matthews fan. i hope this excites everyone else as much as it does me. anyone want to road trip to hamburg?Top Permalink

Once and for all, I would like to put an end to the Dave rumors. I know most of you smart people never believed it in being told by a cafe waitress that Dave was really sick and was bed-ridden and could not play). I was really fortunate to have had the opportunityto hang out with the band before and after the show. Carter brought up the subject of the HIV rumors and asked if I had heard them, which of course I had. He said that the band found out while they were in Europe that these rumors were started. Carter's mom called him all worried and shit cause she heard Dave had AIDS. They all thought it was kinda funny and joke about it. Dave was laughing about it himself. But Carter said that before the Duke show, Dave was all nervous because he didn't know how 4500 people who thought he had AIDS would react to him. They might laugh about it a little, but they're really pissed off, and worse, upset. get a life. You're so full of shit. Bama Rags has been checking out the net to see who is starting this stuff. From what I hear, they WILL trace the guilty parties, and they intend to screw them. So just make sure you have your facts straight before you go spreading something. Not only is it lame, but you will get nailed. don't believe Dave, Carter, or their manager, who will you believe?Top Permalink

For those of you who missed this show all I can say is I'm sorry. The Duke show looks like it was pretty good but this one would be hard to top. I saw Dave about 10 minutes before they went on and I gave him a note with a few suggestion for the setlist and while he only played one of them I was still really pleased because he got the idea that I wanted to hear some old stuff. I know it would be expecting to much for him to completely change the setlist right before the show. I would expect that the show probably dissapointed a lot of the people there because I don't think many of them had ever heard a lot of the songs he played ( Lie in Our Graves, Help Myself, So much to Say, #36, and Say Goodbye). I hope this new trend will keep up. The only disappointment of this show for me was #36. It was extra mello and a far cry from the song I love to dance to. The reoccurance of Stefan's bass solo in I'll Back You Up more than made up for it though. I saw Leroi smoking a cigarette during this song, I don't think that's good for his career. I am going to the Greenville show on Friday( I hope) if anyone has any definite info. on the date of this show please let me know. Over all things are really looking up, more variation on setlists, the rumors seem to be dying down finally, and Clare is back!

Hello one and all. It seems that me and a couple of my friends are going to Greenville this weekend and have no place to stay. We are driving three hours and would really like to crash somewhere for a few hours and then drive home early the next morning. Maybe (and I know this is unlikely) someone would put up with me and my friends for a few hours and maybe drink and merry with us. I can supply the lucky host with some of my 36+ tapes of the boys for their trouble and a 6-pack if they like that kind of thing. We are civilized people and just don't want to kill our party with a 3-hour drive home right after the show. The host is welcome to stay with us next time the Boys visit Knoxville, too. Thanks for reading. Later....JeffTop Permalink
I hate to bother all of you all again, but I'm interested in some setlists from the concerts. I'd like them to be fairly recent, if possible. I'm going to be seeing them in Okc on the 22nd of April.

Is DMB really going to open up for the Dead in Vegas for a three night run? I heard on the rec.music.gdead newsgroup(I think) that the boys couldn't negotiate a contract to do it b/c the Dead didn't want Bagby's new assistant Dan Healy, longtime Dead soundman and friend to tapers, to do the sound. In other words, if Healy's there, no gig for DMB. Remember, this is definitely not confirmed and not an attempt to start a rumor, but I heard this a few times on the Dead newsgroup, and would like to hear otherwise...Thanks in advance, CregTop Permalink
Guys, be nice to the folks at Z100. Consider what you life would be like if more than love, more than art, more than achivement, the most important thing in your life were money. These guys miss out on all the fun had by the rest of us. Below is my post to Numan, and the response. ***** Numan, net) for at least two weeks now. Personally, it could interest me no less which radio stations are playing what and when. The people I know who are interested in thoughtful and evocative music rarely listen to broadcast radio. I am however curious; Has there ever been a comparable response concerning another artist? Why are these fans so loyal and adamant, if occasionally overzeallous? It seems to me that Z100 would want to cultivate the mystique of DMB, their extended jams, Dave's mellow solo tunes, the sheer passion and joy of their music, rather than force this unique band through the commercial mill. Does the promotional process ever result in lasting art? Where are Jesus Jones? The Spin Doctors? Absolutely nowhere. be passed on to the newsgroup, you said you were in the industry to make money, and you thought Dave and the band were in search of fame and money as well. I hope you and your station make a lot of money from the Dave Matthews Band, and I hope that money makes you very happy, because if you think mere profit is the end all of musicianship, then you're missing the point. **** I am impressed at the response indeed. As for music, I was overexaggerating a point. Human *****end********* N "The greatest aphrodisiacs are talent and indifference."Top Permalink

Well, I don't normally post or anything like that - just kinda lurk, delete annoying messages, and get some good tapes. But anyway, I just felt I had to give my thougths on the Duke show, which most of you may not like, but some may appreciate it, especially the guy who already said basically the same thing I'm about to. If you thought this was an "amazing show", or anything like that, I just want to say I feel bad, bc obviously you don't know what DMB can REALLY do. Although I do have to give credit for a pretty awesome setlist, the music sucked. From where I stood it sounded like a bad high school band doing covers of Dave MAtthews. I guess it was partly fault of really bad acoustics, and a really off sound system. (The music sounded better OUTSIDE of the stadium). But I'm afraid it was also the fault of the crowd. I'm beginning to think that DMB's sound is just not one that can carry over to big venues and lots of people. Now this isn't being selfish and wanting to hear them all by myself in a secluded room, which wouldn't be a bad thing, but I do understand many people like them and they want that. But I have always thought of their music as very jazzy, and you just don't enjoy jazz with thousands of people. The entire show you could barely hear Boyd or Leroi's solos because peaople screamed constantly through them and drowned them out. Not to mention you could not make out a word of any of the songs. And as some have already commented, they just didn't have much life or enthusiasm - probably due to too much touring. Usually you go to shows because you expect the music to sound alot better live than off a CD, but this was not the case, and that is pretty dissappointing. I would have had a better time sitting home and listening to a CD or old boots, because they just don't sound like that anymore. So anyway, those are all the diconnected thoguhts I can think of. Flame if you want, but I really don't care. If you enjoy them now as is, well I'm happy that you can. But for those who may feel the same as I, this is kinda a sad situation. All I can hope is that after this skyrocket of popularity they will mature and things will become a little more sane. For now I won't be paying 20$ for anymore disappointing and depressing experiences, sitting there thinking what they could be like, or used to be like. Like I said, if I've pissed you off - deal.

Hey, Duke show so late. BUt that's what happens when you live 8 hours away and have to drive home on the Sunday after a Friday show. ticket. THat was cool, a lot of people selling tix outside, a definite buyer's market. BHT. Walking in heard some guy say "Hey I think that this is DMB", when it was BHT. They ALMOST sound alike. song start as the last show I saw in Cincinnati. Then So Much To Say was a welcome tune to hear. Dancing Nancies was where we would find out that Boyd would in fact liven up and start to really kick some ass, somethign he didn't do for the first part of the show. He really took over after a while on this tune. on tape, never have I ever seen Stefan so active. I mean, right from the start, you could tell he was feeling a little "en fuego". He even jammed on a tune for about 15 seconds, stepped out and everything. the first time. Too bad only about 15 people in the whole crowd knew what these were, but damn did we know what these were. The last two songs pre-encore were pretty dissapointing, although they even seemed to play Satellite well. I guess you have to please everyone though. were excellent, I would like to be able to hear them and actually hear the words also. BUt beggars can't be choosers, eh?? The Watchtower that ended the show was the best Watchtower I have ever heard, just incredible. what the name of the 2 new songs were. He showed me the setlist, and it said "new". So I asked them, and he confirmed that even the band didn't know what the names were. soundboard?? If you did, what was up with the "Hey, let's throw cups of Coke on each other and almost try not to hit other people???" Just thought that was lame, but that's just me. never made it around to the right side of the boards to see if there were any DAT feeds or anything.

I may be out of line because I missed the forwarded flames from Human Nunan (or whatever) so maybe I should be pissed as well, but.... Hows about we not worry about Z100? As Nunan put it, DMB was in on it with us. Who cares if they might say that they discovered DMB. Most of you have been listening for a long time, so you know the difference. Be content with it. Besides, apart from this on-line world, there is a real one out there and it might be a little more practical for some of us to refamiliarize ourselves with the way it works. We live in a capitalist society. If DMB wants to make people happy through his music, than that means he must recieve exposure. Exposure means radio stations, Z100 concerts, MTV videos, etc...(Even The Grateful Dead had a video for Touch of Grey!) Such is the society we live in. It might be kind of cool,perhaps, if DMB would remain our own little band that only we know about, but this is stupid and immature. cares(!), and please let's have a little more depth in posts here. I don't mind trades, etc.. (I love these!), but let's can the stuff about Z100 and other crap that is beyond our control and really isn't our business anyway, so long as DMB continues to put out the deep music. (My intentions in this letter are not to piss anyone off....you put your 2 cents in, I put mine.) Laters, Jeff P.S. Hey minareters........ ITS TRUE!!!!! ITS TRUE!!!!!!! DMB will be opening for the Dead in Las Vegas May 19,20,21 Yeessssss!!!! I have my tickets for the 19 and 20 shows!!!!!! Also, Widespread will be playing these same dates earlier in the day and I have these tickets too! It's gonna be a long haul, but well worth it!

for some reason i do not get any digests, or messages anymore, even though i'm subscribed. so i don't know if this was already mentioned. there is an article on DMB in the Buffalo News on Sunday April 9th. it mainly talks about their success.Top Permalink
I'm new to minarets, but I'd much rather see everyone getting along. I mean, what does it take to put someone down? Nothin. It's easy and even can be enjoyable. We all like to be important. It makes sense (but you can't beat sense into humans) to make everyone feel important if it makes everyone feel better. Just my feelings, but it seems more gets done this way... Maybe we'd have a bigger effect getting what we want with Z100 if we did something besides mail/fax/phone bomb them. They like the DMB, maybe for the wrong reason, but maybe we could do something about changing their reasoning.. Yes, preach on!!! I am not alone in my opinions!

To all those going to Vegas. I HIGHLY reccommend that someone tape the DEAD/DMB shows. I know I definitely want a copy of the shows. If you want to be a good fan, you could distribute it like the Dead. Otherwise, you could sell them. I would prefer you to spin it, but I would definitely buy it if I must. If you see someone taping, GET A COPY. It will be HOT HOT HOT!!!!! JordanTop Permalink

To all those going to Vegas. I HIGHLY reccommend that someone tape the DEAD/DMB shows. I know I definitely want a copy of the shows. If you want to be a good fan, you could distribute it like the Dead. Otherwise, you could sell them. I would prefer you to spin it, but I would definitely buy it if I must. If you see someone taping, GET A COPY. It will be HOT HOT HOT!!!!! Jordan Uhh.... A. You can't sell them. No ifs, ands or buts. Don't buy anything that a band doesn't sanction. Ever. I'll be happy to explain why, but I've explained why so many times before on this net that I don't want to bother to do it again publicly. B. Unless you have an "Official Grateful Dead Tapers Ticket," you can't bring a deck into a Dead show, and therefore into the DMB show. These tickets have to be mail ordered, and if you haven't bothered yet, you're out of luck. Don't despair- the band sells 250 or so of these to every show, so you'll always find a tape if you work hard enough at it.Top Permalink

Heya- This is a repeat of a grovel that utterly failed last time around. I am *super* jonesed for a copy on DAT of the DMB 12-9-93 w/ Tim Reynolds on electric guitar. Ever since I got a copy of the dsbd of 12-8-93 I have been looking for more of the boyz with Tim on electric- since he adds so much to their music. I have over 400 hours of almost all sbds on DAT to offer in return- including a bunch of pretty rare gems. Please respond to this if you can help- My collection will defintely make it worth your while. Thanks- Fed Federico.Cribiore@directory.Reed.edu Please reply personally since I have recently signed off of minarets. Thank YouTop Permalink
holy cow. that is essentially all i can say. I know everybody has similar experiences at dave shows, but i never fully understood. it was the most a) boxing ghandis were tremendous. i highly reccomend them, and their cd. b) big head todd was awful. maybe its just me, but i really really did not like them. sounded like candlebox at one point. [i really do not want to get in an argument over this either] c) some of the crowd really sucked. one guy asked me during bhtm, "who is this band?" hey, i didnt like them, but at least i knew who they were. sheesh. d) they [dmb] played some crazy stuff. i cant remember their setlist, but... {not in order!!!} So Much To Say Lie In Our Graves Two-Step -- Ants === HOLY SCHMO!!! Warehouse. === {opener} Best Of What's Around Satellite Typical Situation Dancing Nancies === nutso jam here some others... Angel from Montgomery* \______ Encore Halloween / wow *Boyd sang with dave. beautiful voice, boyd has. wouldnt let me. but i waited a few minutes and got to see LeRoi and shake his hand. We didnt really say anything beyond 'great show' & 'thanks' but it was neat to see him. I also left my # with a guy who booted it with a MD. so if people want tapes, lemme know. hasta.Top Permalink
As a new netter, I have only been reading this newsgroup for about a week and have to say it's a pretty cool group. I have seen a lot of discussion about the Band going from obscurity to stardom almost overnight. As I am from Michigan, I haven't listened to them as long as some of you, but can say I expected it to happen. They are a tremendous band. I saw Phish change from a band who nobody had heard of, to .....well you know. I unlike many people have no problem with this stardom. I am excited that both bands have been able to reach more people than ever. I can also guarentee you of this. Regardless of how many albums these bands sell, they themselves will never change. They will always be incredible people.Top Permalink
hi all, it's superior to uttad for many reasons. first is raw emotion..nothing can match the live performance..as you tape traders know... second is sheer talent..dave doesn't need high tech studio wizardry to make himself sound better... phrasing, original bass lines that compliment the music rather than stand out, a lot like stefan in general. leroi's sax and flute playing is incredible..i play sax and i find that the sound i like best is when it sounds like a violin...leroi has those moments...frequently. amazing. boyd, well he's great...i love it in tripping billies when dave goes 'boyd yeah', cause that's exactly how i feel when i hear it. his violin playing is amazing, in uttad a lot of his sound is lost in production, and he plays parts on ants on r2t that i don't hear on uttad. carter..well he's great as well, steady, original, never misses a beat even when his sticks break...he's great. all in all the band is a bunch of great musicians...dave included. one, he allows the other instruments to be highlighted, creating a balance that makes the band unique...that's what i love about them, their uniqueness. in the band being called dmb, the focus shifts to dave and the others are often overlooked... that's all i can say....just wanted to share with people who still care....Top Permalink
hey, there've been a number of posts lamenting the direction that the content of this group has taken. i think that a good deal of it has been pretty good, but it's definitely had its moments which have seemed kinda sad to me (ala rumors,human numan,waldo,z100 bombs). i used to spend a lot of time on the rem newsgroup till the traffic just got way out of hand (round about 150 posts a day!). tonight i went back just to see what was going on and despite the fact that i found 629 posts, i liked a lot of the threads that i saw. here's some of what they're onto people would like a new album to be like, duets and covers people think would be cool, the lameness of many press interviews and the questions they would like to ask, ideas for rem automobile vanity plates(this appealed to me in a perverse kind of way; feel free to flame me for it, i think i need it). though there is a lot of baddisease/sexuality talk on that group too. it also occurs to me that some of the more flameboyant posts don't happen there because (and this really is as objective as i can be) there isn't quite the zeal and excitement for rem that dmb fans have. plus most of them have gotten past the traumatic transition to stardom phase (not many of them have recent memories of when they could have a beer with mike mills after a show in a bar). the group is rec.music.rem for anyone who wants to take a look at it. y'all might find it interesting just to peruse the subject headers. later.Top Permalink
howdy, i am looking for a VERY HQ copy of dmb @ charlottesville on 2-22-94 i am also looking for dmb @ uvm they played the end of january i think the date was the 26th, or right around that. also, does anyone have or know where i can get the WINTAPER label maker for my tapes? any help would greatly be appreciated. what is the address for the HORDE net? thanks.

Just a few short random ramblings- 1- I saw my first semi rare DMB disc this weekend. It was a promo-only CD-single of Jimi Thing. The disc had four songs [Jimi Thing (radio edit), Jimi Thing (UTTAD version), Recently (from Recently EP), and Watchtower (from Recently EP)]. Although this had Jimi Thing (radio edit) I still think that Ants is going to be the next song released for airplay. 2- Live at Ziggy's is popping up everywhere. I was at a record and disc show this weekend - a few different vendors had it. The lowest price was $45. I took the liberty of pissing off each of these vendors by explaining that DMB at one time provided SBD feeds and there are tons of HQ boots floating around that are not too hard to get. Most of the vendors weren't happy. :-) 3- I have seen a few posts about other minareters going to the Dave/Dead shows. I will be at the Sat night show 5/19. If you will be also, drop me a line - lets get together for a little minarets party in the desert. 4- If someone still has digest #130, please get in touch with me - I may need it forwarded to me. I did not receive one yesterday. 5- Guys, who are you more excited to see on SNL - DMB or Courtney Cox? ****Personal Note***** Heather Lynn Austin (aka my Terp Buddy) - please send me your email address. I got your tapes. They should be done this week. ************************ Rich rkochman@ucg.comTop Permalink
Hey all, he cancelled due to SNL, a buddy and I decided, hey let's just show up at the Orlando gig and (1) scalp tickets (2) try to schmooze with a band member and get on the guest list, or (3) sneak in. Well, EVERYBODY needed tickets, so we knew we'd have to pay an arm and a leg. We did get to talk to Boyd briefly and plead our case about the Gainesville show, showing him our G-ville tix, and he said he'd see what he could do. Although we didn't get excited cause he seemed like he was way out of it, (and couldn't remember our names anyway. So plan 3 went into effect. Using our Gainesville tix we picked the dumbest looking ticket taker and waltzed right in. He barely looked at the tix!! Needless to say we were stoked... Warehouse Typical Nancies R&R So Much Satellite Recently-- Norwegian Wood teaser -- Water/Wine Jam -- Lie In Our Graves Trippin' ??? Mellow acoustic tune/Carter/Stefan join at end "...I believe I'm falling fast..." was what I thought I could decipher as the refrain. Best of What's Around Two Step Ants Halloween It had been a year since I had seen them for $5 at a club in Gainesville with about 300 people--two sets, you know the good ol' (not ol' ol) days, when the band travelled in the big brown van with the trailer. No more... Super sweet shiny tour bus, tractor-trailer full of equipment, light show, and screaming UTTAD fans. I'm sorry I'm biased, but people musta thought I was fool. hot (bouncers threw bottled water into the crowd twice) and every 16-20 year smoking like chimneys. Stereotype, I know... but I reeked of smoke. It was great seeing the band after a year. Dave was in evil mode all night. The UTTAD songs were pretty standard versions. Boyd was smoking on an extended version of Nancies. The whole Recently segue was the definite highlight of the show. So Much and Two Step were pleasant surprises, but I'd seen them on recent set lists so I wasn't too surprised. Halloween was a great encore closer, especially since everyone there expected WWYS. Two people were taping. One guy was standing in the middle of the crowd holding a mic in the air. Needless to say, his arm got tired fast, and the mic disappeared after the second song. Bagby was helping another guy near the board, so I went over and got his name. I don't know if he got a good quality tape or not. He didn't have a DAT, it looked more like a Sony mini-disc player. All those going to the Sunrise show tonight (Katharine) have fun!!

To all, ******DISCLAIMER******** Now nothing in this post should be taken as fact, the statements herein are my suppositions based on what I know of Dave, Bagby, and Healey (in fact I may be misspelling Healey, is it Healy?) ************************* Someone, I believe Kim, was complaining about the sound at Duke, and probably with good reason. I know the soud at the UVA ampitheater sucked towards the back. Which brings in Healey, who I think is the undisputable master of Stadium sound. I don't know if he had any hand in the Dead's original Wall of Sound approach, but I do know he executed it to perfection. I could go on about the Wall of Sound, but I am no authority on the subject, and that is somthing technical that I'd rather not be wrong on. What was I saying . . . Oh, anyone who has seen the dead for a number of years can testify that the sound on this last Dead tour was comparatively bad, and it is conventional wisdom (which of course is often wrong) that when Healey left the Dead (which is uncontrovertably true), he took with him the plans for setting up the sound for virtually all the major stadium venues. I can testify personally that the sound for the RFK shows last year was lame, but it is a tough place to get good sound in, and Healey had a lot of experience. Which brings us back to DMB. It has been stated alternatively that Healey *is* the new DMB soundman, thereby replacing ol' Bagby, or that Healy is now Bagby's "assistant" which, despite DMB new status as hot band, would really be a step down in job status, I would think. So what seems more likely to me is that he has been brought in to help, like an executive consultant. As much to teach Bagby, as anything. Bagby knows Dave, but he doesn't know Stadium gigging yet, and it appears that is where they'll be heading (I don't mean that all their concerts will be in RFK or Giants stadium, but bigger indoor and outdoor places are liable to be the norm, basketball joints, ampitheaters, etc.) Which brings us back to Duke. If the sound was bad, don't expect it to stay that way. Big hall playing takes practice for both the soundman and *the band* The Dead have got years at it, and its still not always right. (but of couse when it is, wow!) Even Phish has a sound that is louder, and therefore more amenable (man this sounds like a vocabulary test) to the big places. Its easy to make Metallica sound decent in a stadium, but the sounds of the Dead and DMB, while very unalike, are much more fine, even when loud. I think this may be even more true with Dave b/c there is only one intrument which was designed with the expectation that it would be played through speakers. As to no Healey in Vegas, it is unfortunate, since that is a *big* place for Dave, but its the Dead's show, and till Healey and them patch things up (please, please, soon) dats da way it is. and I think a LeRoi would be awesome on Eyes. Maybe a duet with Branford? Eric EdwardsonTop Permalink
thought you guys might enjoy this little letter i sent to Z100. sorry about all the extra shit at the top. i messed up the address the first time! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- 550 minarets.uvm.edu (TCP)... 550 Host unknown 550 moose@minarets.uvm.edu... Host unknown (Authoritative answer from name server) dear Z100 djs, fans on minarets actually want dave matthews band to be a success. we want the band to make money so that they can continue making the music that we all love so much. i don't think the main issue is that we feel that the band has "sold out." on the contrary, i think many of us feel a sense of pride in knowing that we follow a band that is good enough to be successful. but the behavior of your radio station. we feel that you have ruthlessly exploited the band to further your own radio station's reputation. we understand that you also want to be a success, but an advertisment that states that "no one had heard of the dave matthews band until Z100 started playing them" is really just too much. it is a ridiculous and untrue statement to make about the popularity of the band, and i am certain that even the band members would not be content to know that radio listener's ears were filled with such blasphemy. i wonder if the band knows about the advertisment you ran that stated "the dave matthews band may not be as big as green day or offspring, but we think they might be someday," or words to that effect. do you think that the members of the band really appreciate being misrepresented in such a condescending fashion? and your reaction to our justified anger that has us so outraged. did you ever consider that a more reasonable method of giving away free tickets would have been asking a dave matthews trivia question and giving the first person with the correct answer the free tickets? that way, the people who won the tickets would have been both fans of your radio station and of the dave matthews band and the whole process would have been as fair as possible and everyone would have been happier. instead, the majority of the people at the concert knew very little of dave's music and couldn't appreciate when the band played such rare wonders as 'two step,' 'so much to say,' and 'angel from montgomery.' it is not only disappointing for a "real" fan to be surrounded by so-called "fans" who don't know the music well, but i imagine that it is also disheartening for the band to play to such an audience, an audience that has a sort of pavlovian response to 'what would you say,' but otherwise remains silent for the duration of the show. least, for they had very little control over the situation. we are angry with you for exploiting a band that means so much to us and refusif of the internet and go listen to some green day or something.Top Permalink
Hello all- incredible-it kicked ass! I have seen many dmb shows and have been hesitant about the explosion of fans that have discovered this band, not to mention that the show was at the Citadel, an freak show in itself. But here is the setlist, I have not seen it posted yet but I am digestified so I apologize if it already has been. Here goes... Best Of What's Around Dancing Nancies Lie In Our Graves Rhyme & Reason So Much To Say Minarets Typical Situation Jimi Thing- Help Myself Lover Lay Down Satellite Say Goodbye Recently #36 Ants e-Back You Up There were a ton of very hot jams, Boyd played his heart out. Dave had plenty to say, mumbled something about being glad to be back in the southeast and that it looked like we had been breeding down here. I have too much to say about this show so I better shut up but if anyone wants more info I will be happy to respond. Oh yeah, the crowd basically sucked but once I found my own dancing space I was completely happy. They played from 9:30 until 11:45 only taking a short break before the encore! This show really changed my attitude about all the commercial success and fair weather fans that have discovered this incredibly talented band-the boys simply kicked ass! shows! maggieTop Permalink
Fellow Minaretters- we know how they feel(or some of us think we do), and otherwise this is just getting out of hand. Let's try education...I posted a polite and informative response from none other than Human Numan himself carefully explaining what tunes get airtime, how they get picked, etc...it was quite interesting. If you bothered to read this(which I'm sure many of you did), you would understand, that BASICALLY, choosing tunes is out of the DJ's hands, and although the station may have taken a little more credit for founding DMB's success than they deserved, is there really a need for us to tell them 10,000 times how loyal we are, how much they suck, etc.? I think they get the point...they are more than willing to help us understand how this shit works, so lets let them do their jobs...playing the CD's picked from a computer(which chooses based on lots of market info.). Z100 and many other stations like it(you know the kind) play top 40 type stuff over and over to an audience that likes that kind of stuff - NOT US - personally, that sort of thing makes me want to puke, but we don't have to listen to it. I know that contest was a bit unfair, and it was a bit absurd for the tickets to be distributed the way they did, but how often does this happen? Not very often, and if any of us were die hard enough to show up(which some of us were - or could), they were giving out LOTS of free tickets at the door to interested parties, including several minaretters I know. bit...I have no quams w/ any of you, and I'm sorry if it seemed as though I was attacking anyone(especially Caroline), actually, I think it's great that we can join together and show our dedication to music and a great band. Have a nice afternoon and feel free to respond to ME PERSONALLY. Thanks for listening-Top Permalink

Sorry to post something off the subject, but does anyone out there know any Freddy Jones Band tour dates or know a way I could find them??? Thanks, BrianTop Permalink
I'm sure this has been posted before, but I have to ask, because I'm confused. Is the line "Tomorrow go back to being friends, but for tonight let's be lovers" (or a close approximation) from "Say Goodbye" or "Just For Tonight"? Or are they the same song.

What's up minareters, Everything will be broadcasting it's Concert from JMU this thursday over the internet. To see it, I think you're going to need a SLIP or PPP connection, or ethernet. THen you must download the software, CU-SeeMe from gate.cornell.edu Windows and the Mac environments. Once you download it it's easy to use. The signal will be sent through Standford and once I get the exact IP address of broadcaster I will post to minarets again. Good luck, with anything slowere than 14.4 connection it's going to require a lot of patience. Once you get the software, just fool around with it, it's easy to use. If you trying connecting to some of the broadcasters it supplies with the software you can get an idea of how it'll look. I have had the best luck with nysernet.org There always seems to be people broadcasting from there. Have fun and more details to follow!

I don't think this went through the first time, so please forgive me if this is the second time I posted it. This is a little something for the alternative lyrics file, seeing as we only have one version of Say Goodbye, and I wrote out the lyrics a while ago for a friend of mine. Some parts I'm not sure of, and some I have no clue (wild yodeling) Say Goodbye, 10/8/94, The Avalon, Boston, MA So here we are tonight, you and me together with snow outside, and the fire bright Oh, and in your eyes I know its the same thing, that's on my mind Take a look inside Oh, well I know I can't deny, this is troubling When we both love your man And we love my wife That we would even consider taking these chances But no eyes but our own, will spy this (....)

outside of Richmond, Va.), for Earth Day on Sat April 22nd!! A real good local band "Agents of Good Roots" is opening up. It is a day time event that starts around 12-1pm. It will be on our football field which is as good as any grassy area for a concert. Other fun and festive activities will take place on this day, but WSP is the obvious highlight. You can Sunday's Van Ryper's fest (only 1 hr away...). (knock on wood...) an interview with the band while they are at my school!! We still need to set a time that is convenient for the band's traveling schedule. What I thought would be a good idea is to ask you (WSP lyrics, the tour, HORDE, Mtv video, the future plans, etc.- you catch the response/reply, I will try my best to choose the questions which seem most appropriate. When creating a question(s), you might want to avoid any questions asked recently of David Schools on the AOL interview. There is a way to access that interview's transcript, but it escapes me presently. I will then simply ask the band your questions directed to whomever you specify and I will give you credit as the question-maker. I am going to tape the interview on cassette, so if it turns out right, it could make a nice filler. After all is said and done, I will post (at _least_ to those who submitted questions) the transcript of the interview for those interested. I will also write a concert review/interview for my school newspaper using that material. So, if you have something you've been wanting to ask/tell the band (within reason), then now's a good time. Send questions/comments to me (dmusser@cscsun.rmc.edu) with subject header "WSP Interview". PLEASE send them to me no later than next WED April 19th as I need time to structure the interview. Hopefully all will go well, so keep your fingers crossed!! If you have any Q's, let me know. This is YOUR chance to ask the questions... Later- Dave dmusser@cscsun.rmc.edu p.s.- the internet is a great place to spread WSP's fanbase even more... "Crossing paths that we've taken all along..."-R.Foehl, Acoustic JunctionTop Permalink

Greetings and Salutations, introduce myself. My name is Stephanie Hardin and I'm an e-mail addict. It started off with a note to a friend here and there, then it got worse. I sold off both of my kids and all of my material possesions to keep up the habit. Now all I've got is a computer, modem, and a big cardboard box. Okay, so I'm kidding, but you have to admit that it's an interesting intro. Yes, my name really is Stephanie (I wouldn't lie on that front) and I guess you really could call me an e-mail junkie since I now belong to 3 mailing lists and am sure to add more. Band fan, but a VERY new one. Thus I know very little about them and I'm probably going to be in the dark about most of the discussions. However, I'm always ready and willing to learn about new bands, especially ones with such an interesting and unique sound. So, if anyone is willing to offer me any "tutoring" in the ways of the Dave Matthews Band, I would greatly appreciate it. (As well as copies of any bootlegs or compilation tapes any of you happen to have. I'll send blank tapes and postage to whoever would be good enough to make me copies.) Since I have very little else to say, I'll just leave it at that and say goodnight.Top Permalink
can anyone email me personally with the schedule for the next couple days -- like thurs, fri, and the weekend. I am going to be in Charlottesville (yes, the holy land) and chapell hill and am wondering if they are going to be in the area. also, anywhere in south carolina the beginning of next week?? peace Andrew "celebrate we will, cause life is short but sweet for certain" Dave Matthews "and the earth beneath us, holds a secret within its forgotten roots -- the secret of love" Acoustic JunctionTop Permalink

I hope someone is a taper and gets directly hooked up to the soundboard. The wopuld be the coolest. Especially if that person just did spin-offs. Does anyone plan on doing that. Let me know, I'd definately be interested in getting a copy, even if I had to buy it.Top Permalink
Dave is definitely much more exciting than Courtney Cox...However, Courtney Cox is soooo beautiful. (I loved her on Family Ties, Cocoon The Return and now Friends) I think overall, this could be the best episode of SNL in a they will play WWYS (although I wish they wouldnt) but what about the other song? Maybe ANTS?(because of the whole vidoe thing) I dont know, but how cool would Spotlight or Cry Freedom or Two Step be? I dunno..just rambling.. ThanksTop Permalink
Hi, (hopefully DMB) will be in the HORDE this summer? thanks, AL asamueli@skidmore.edu ------------------- End of network mailTop Permalink
DMB would be playing there at some point in time, but wasn't really interested so he didn't listen to the date. Can anyone confirm or deny? If someone out there has a date, that would be really help too. (I'm trying to plan my summer around as many shows as possible.) Thanks in advance!Top Permalink
This is another quick update on the Everything internet appearance. Everything will be broadcasting Thursday nights show from JMU live over the internet! You will need software called, CU-SeeMe and it can be FTPed from gated.cornell.edu under the /pub/CU-SeeMe directory. It only runs on DOS and Macs, sorry. Once you have the software, you'll want to connect to either 132.236.91.204 - Cornell U 128.83.108.14 - Somewhere in Texas (lots of repeaters) 192.77.173.2 - NiserNet in NYC at 8:00 on Thursday, Everything will begin a live interactive interview over this thing and should be cool. In order to interact, you have to have a compatible video camera and video board, AV Macs have this so you guys are in. After that the show will be broadcast. If you have a slow connection, the video is going to be real choppy so don't fret, but the audio should be fine. Checkout the Everything Home Page for updated info at Groovy Beans!!!

DMB CD OFFER I would like to make a proposal here, and I would like people's feedback. Many of us are fans of DMB and are fans of CDs, but out of respect for DMB we trade tapes and do not buy the bootlegger's CDs. Well I think I may These CDs are produced in an unresellable fashion -- they are written on the writable blank CDs that say, "SCOTCH" on them, or something similar. Also the buyer must send in a signed promisary note that the compact disc will not be made available for sale. Also, only a very limited number of copies can be purchased for each resident of a house. These CDs are completely legal as the buyer must agree to use the CD only for his or her personal use. What I am proposing is that we have a CD made, "The Best of DMB Vol. I" we could call it. It would consist of the personal favorite songs from the clearest DATs or if need be, from the very clearest of the regular audio tapes. Basically what would happen is everyone would contribute material to be put on a DAT tape (up to 63 minutes in length) which would then be converted to compact disc, and everyone who was on the list could order a copy of the compact disc at a *very* resonable price. The only one who would make any money on the deal would be the person producing the CD -- *really high*, I know) a 1000 copies of the CD were wanted by members of Minarets we would only have to pay $1 a copy plus shipping! Now I don't know how many people are interested but if you are, please fill out the form below. Please note -- I have not picked a company to make the CDs yet. I have talked to several and got general pricing. If anyone is interested in some of the information I received so they can contact the companies personally -- just email me! ---- CUT HERE ---- Regarding the DMB CD "TREE": Who are you? --- END HERE --- Thank you!Top Permalink
legality of making such a compact disc. What they told me is that it is completely legal to make personal copies of material as long as it is for So basically it comes down to, all that is being done is that we are making a BEST OF DMB TAPE and spreading it around. Except we are spreading it around except the cost of having that CD made. This is the reasoning that the companies I talked to gave me for the legality of such a thing. interested. The price can range anywhere from $1 (1000 people) to $30 (if only one person was interested). Hopefully we can find a happy medium around the $10 range -- but I am trying to find the lowest price right now, so I will keep you all informed. Thanks,Top Permalink

if you wish* hey there 'retters! just thought I'd shoot in some comments of Dave, minarets, and the scene. ***first of all, a word for my server** fuck that!!! my freakin account crashed and i was left without a net for a solid week...eek ***and second of all, for the flamers*** thsi is not a homosexual thing... way to go! send 6000000messages to a radio station saying..."fuck you...we like dave matthews and you ruined him" why do I get the impression that they'd think that means ya'll are LISTENING? jus' my .02 on THAT subject ***yo HIV...chill*** 'nuff said ***more great moments in Dave Time*** how about the "be" from back you up??? or "calm away by the storm is chasen" chasen??? from satellite how does he DO that??? and then do "HA HA" so damn low that you think swear he's conjuring up the devil himself for that line in seek up? from that Roseland show that I just mailed out... after trey and popper literally blow the roof off of the joint, Dave says "God DAMN!" mutter mutter mutter "Ah jus' gotta get my shit together"....into Broadwayrecently oh EXAAAAAAACTLY! God DAMN I love this band ***a word about the Dead*** no offense Dave, why the fogies? In all honesty, won't DMB lose most of their energy in a place that big? I tend to think they're the kind of band that draws energy from the crowd. How do you draw energy from a fucking stadium that's 1/2 to 1/3 empty 'cause everyone's in the parking lot trying to get fucked up enough to make listening to the Dead bearable? Not that I'm not a Dead fan...hell, if I still did drugs, I'D tour!!! but they're definitely getting old, and they just aren't the mid-seventies jamfest that they were...and no mushroom could convince even the most modest of junkies that they are... Hell, I LIKE the DEAD! but Dave and them? It's definitely cooler to open for the Dead than for Green Day, IMHO...less crowd surfing? maybe? but still, Dave can get better gigs...why cater to a relic like these old bats? It kinda disappoints me when a new band has to play in the shadow of a band who's time has really passed. sorry, Deadheads, I'm not trying to be offensive at all, but compared to the high energy stuff I've started to get into, 6 old men who forget the words and take 55 minute setbreaks to tie off put me to sleep. Hell, the ALLMAN BROTHERS jam harder than Jerry and co... I'm GOIN to see those old bats!! Wooooo 2 tix in the balcony at the philly Tower are on their way from the 'Bastard as we speak...for a mere 29.75 each!!! what a bargain! ***another word that's dead related*** anyone in possession of "Go Ahead" bootlegs? some kinda crazy all star line up with members of Dead, Traffic, Santana, etc. e-mail me direct If you do ***last thing*** I'm an opinionated fuckhead, sometimes, so don't take me the wrong way I'm not trying to bash anyone's choice in music, but I question the judgement of a band who makes such a seemingly obvious stab at getting press head. I mean, what the hell are the Black Crowes doing opening up for the Grateful dead???? Did they just show up to buy dope, and decide to stick around? It's should be the other way around. they're no longer an opening band! neither is Dave! I dunno, I stopped going to Dead shows cause the $45 tickets which afforded me the luxury of getting barfed on, lame set lists, over played "jams" and ridiculous Space-Drums features that had fizzled down to the rare, brilliant gem and many more drawn-out tuning sessions, getting trampled and hassled by the police, and watching some fat grey guy pass out against one of the amps on stage (no, not a roadie) left me feeling ripped off. Gimmee a no-cover Grinch show or $15 to see the Ramones or Gibb Droll ANY DAY! I think I'll listen to Dick's Pick's....g'night SPDLMT *remember, only YOU can prevent forest fires...be careful when and why you flame!!*Top Permalink

(little sappy, i know, i'm feeling humanistic) and eventually all the people who listen to the boys just because the are on the weekly top forty will move on to their new craze, and we will still have all that dave has given us...a great fucking feeling and some kick-ass music. we just have to be patient, that's all. now. sweet dreams of dave....

I know Mr. Griffith (for the one looking for him) and he is really cool about his trades. I did a ten trade deal with him and was only able to send the first four out in the time we had set up and he was cool about it. I got all ten of my tapes and he has been really patient with me. If you read this Griffith, your tapes are out tomorrow (or five of them, which means I still owe you one, SOON man, SOON). To everyone else, your tapes are spinning right now so bear with me and don't hold my slowness against me. After school is over my speed will greatly increase. As for the Greenville show, my hunt continues for a place to crash with my buddies. I might have a spot with a fellow minaret(er) but if you are reading this and thinking, "Man, I really would like to put up a couple of cool cats for an evening and get some free bootlegs out of it." then send me a message. Later guys....JEFF Oh yeah, as for any get together before the Nashville or Greenville, my friends and I are game. But, I want to be at the show super early so I can talk to Dave through the concert and keep requesting SPOTLIGHT. Something interesting, I found a Boxing Gandhis c.d. at the used store the other night for 4 clams. Pretty cool price, but the music is kind of, well, kind of......
