it, but I assume they heard that someone on this net said someone saw an MTV report that Dave had HIV. Anyway, I think its cool for them to deny something they never reported in the first place.

OK...I just got a new tape...and as I am anal as hell, I keep all of my labels perfectly. Problem is this one doesn't list a venue! The date is 06/21/93 and it is from Athens, GA? If anyone has it, PLEASE PLEASE help me out so I can keep them all accurate! Also if you have it, could anyone please tell me what song is in between Typical Situation and Lying in Our Graves. It's labeled ???? on mine. Actually I have only listened to it once cause I just got it last night so I might know what it is cause I just wasn't paying attention to it when that song came around (working on a paper!) So if you know the answers to either of these questions I would greatly appreciate it! One more thing...I think I have posted this before but I never got a response. Does anyone know where I can get a gif or any other file format of the DMB Firedancer? I do a lot of graphic design and I want to put it on a J-card. If not, anyone have any cool ideas for some simnple DMB graphics for use in J-cards? Thank you, thank you and thank you!

"THE BEST OF WHAT'S AROUND" DMB CD TREE ANNOUCEMENT and it is just not going to happen. It really is not management's fault, they were really cool about it, more so it is DMB's agreement with RCA that is going to keep this from happening. Well, as a consolation there will be a tape tree from the deal! I have continued to collect responses and based on what tapes are available to me I am in the process of constucting a tape to be distributed. Please do not write me about it quite yet, I will send out a form later today for you all to fill out. I would like to thank everyone who responded to my posts, and everyone who helped out by using their sources (or in some cases making new sources!) and helping find out about the Bama situation and getting me management's phone number. Anyway, here are a couple of the responses from people who had contact with management that really summarize managment's position. Hey, read these, because there is a cool note in the second one about an upcoming DMB cd ... ! Thanks again all, and I'll keep in touch with the tape tree info ... --- LETTER ONE --- I've spoken with management about this. drop it. now. You would be putting DM into mucho jeopardy with RCA and not to mention violating several of DMB contracts with punitive damages totaling a great deal of money. Contact me if you have further questions/concerns? alex crothers --- LETTER TWO --- --- This one is pretty cool --- From SimonSkol@aol.com Fri Apr 14 07:50:48 1995 I spoke with Koran Kapshaw, Dave's manager. He said that it was illeagl. But he was really cool about it. He said the FBI was looking to the "Live at Ziggy's" import. He wanted us to know that he understands why we wanted to do this. Between their albums this fall, they are going to put out CD's called "Best of the Road Vol. 1" which will cost 7.98 and be all live stuff from this tour. He wants to keep legal taping at the shows and not have toTop Permalink
YAHOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I just finished my first year of University and it is feeling GOOD. I've been waiting to write this message for over a month, because I was studying my butt off. anyways, this is my first REAL post. I was very fortunate to Catch DMB in my Home-town Vancouver. Anyways,it was the same night as the Grey Cup (for all you americans that's the supposed Canadian equivalent to the Super Bowl), and for this reason there were very few people. I'm talking at most 100 people. Anyways, the show was absolutely incredible, I was within arms reach of Dave for the entire show. Boyd's smile was so big, and he was jamming so hard, I seriously thought he'd explode. After the show I talked to all the guys, and there extremely nice. I have to say this was the best live performance of any band that I have ever seen. Anyways, I thought that it would be worth a try to see if anyone taped this show (I don't think anyone did). I doubt that anyone on this net was at the show, but if you were by some chance I would give you my life for a copy. (the show is 11/27/94 Vancouver, B.C.) Well, if anyone has read this far, I'd love to do some tradin', your list gets mine.Top Permalink
THE BEST OF WHAT'S AROUND -- TAPE TREE Well as you all know the CD project fell through, so, well, we'll make a tape out of it. I have compiled a list of everyone's favorite songs, venues, and dates. From that list and from what tapes I have available to me at this time I am compiling a 100 minute tape which I will call "The Best of What's Around." All I can tell you is it is sounding pretty cool. Anyway, I have never run a tape tree before, so this form may look a little odd and may be missing some essentials -- but whatever, I'll figure it out. Now, one last very important point. This tape will be made from HQ analog tapes. This is NOT being made from digitial tapes. I am only using the best HQ tapes that are available though. Also, there will *not* be a DAT branch. There really isn't a point. Please, even if you filled out a CD tree form, please fill this form out. This is what I will be going by. I have not set a deadline for this tree yet but it is tenatively set for April 30th. I may cut it shorter so please reply ASAP. --- CUT HERE --- What type of taping equipment do you have? (Please include number of heads, and anything else that may be of importance) Do you have tapes to trade with your parent? If so, please do not include a list but please specify what bands, quality, and if you have DATs to trade. If you were a parent would you like to have blanks or concerts sent to you? How many copies of tapes would you be willing to make? Would you be willing to trade with Maxwell XLII-S tapes? (Maxwell XLII's in general will be the standard tape, but those using better tapes will be moved higher up the tree). --- CUT HERE --- mail me at jjgoke@cs.csbsju.edu if you have problems. Using REPLY *may* make your message get rejected (sorry, it's a problem with the way our email is set up). Thanks again,Top Permalink

song list that everyone sent in for the not happening CD "Tree" and have a list of everyone's favorites songs, locations, and venues. I need to do a grovel for two tapes. The 2/24/95 show and the 11/9/94 show. A *lot* of requests came for these shows, and my copy of the 2/24/95 show is very bad -- and I never have had the 11/9/94 show. So if you would be willing to do a trade with me if you have a HQ copy of either show I would much appreciate it so I could get some of the songs on the Best of What's Around Tape for the tree. I have most of the other shows I need to compile the tape. Anyway, in case anyone wants to know the overall favorite song Granny/Say Goodbye (tie), then Two Step, Lie in Our Graves, and warehouse. All the rest had less than 5 requests each -- though there were some pretty cool suggestions [and they will definetly make it on the tape]. Thanks,Top Permalink
hey...i don't wanna mess up the tree...i guess i joined after the signup. my big brother is pretty good friends with Tim R. and really good friends with Jos (he taught my brother), so he would adore the tape. So if anyone anywhere on the tree is willing to make an extra copy for me, please let me know via personal email. i will be eternally grateful. I don't need real high quality, so even if someone only has time to pop the tapes in their little Sony dual tape deck that they've had since middle school, i'd be content... thanks so much, you guys! maybe i could send you a tape of my bro's band playing live at Zipper's (in Ch'ville)...you can see Jos's inspiration in the beats of the drums... *grin* ARicha P.S. Did anyone catch Kenny Howes on his tour in the last month and a half? I'm curious to see how he did...

To all those in minaret land who have been contemplating the Wilmington show, but were leery of a road trip without tickets in hand...... There IS a store that will reserve tickets! Call (910)313-0076 Credit Card orders are accepted. The latest word is that there will still be tickets available at the gate, but with yours reserved, you won't have to deal with the mongo line. two tickets, and still need a shotgun for the trip down. To respond, e-mail me directly. I've put my minarets on hold for a week for a trip. I just wouldn't be able to handle a week's worth all at once, especially with SNL prompting all kinds of Courtney Cox ramblings. (I have to admit, though, she has turned out rather nicely from her "Dancing in the Dark" beginnings. I wonder if she'll put on some jeans and a white T-shirt & dance with Dave Saturday?

From the June 1995 Musician Magazine "Builing an Audience from the Grassroots" --By Dave Matthews else, that's the feeling that has surrounded our success with the Dave Matthews Band. That's not to say that it's been easy. I've never worked so hard for anything in life. When one climbs a mountain, the focus is on each step. was no plan, no single vision, no clear style in mind. There was only a desire to play. Everyone had other gigs and, however modest, everyone was making a living. Even in the beginning we felt this band had something special and it became eveyone's main focus. focused on building a fan base and playing to as many people as possible. We chose fraterinties and parties prior to worrying about clubs because we would have a guaranteed audience and we'd know how much money we would make. We focused on different regions of the country at different times. Communication across college campuses worked well within the Southeast and Northeast. IT was a much easier transition to the clubs after playing the fraternities. playing to people from all over the country and they would in turn spread the word to their respective hometowns. Colorado was also a great market-its like playing a national resort. From the beginning we have had an open taping policy that allows our fans o share our music with their friends. Bootleg tapes of our music preceded our recordings and spread the early and continued word. Our managers, Coran Capshaw and Ross Hoffman, helped us organize our growing touring business. We started a small touring company and a small corporation to control our spending and savings. has been with us from early on-as is the case with most of our crew. We all share a faith in the music. From the muscians to the crew to the management there is a common belief in what we do. everyone to succeed as best we can. With that homegrown ideal in mind we addressed the question of T-shirts and merchandise and decided to keep that "in-house" as well. All of that has become another creative outlet and source of revenue. solid fan base anchored in the SOutheast. WIth some help from Blues Traveler, Widespread Panic, the Samples, Big Head Todd and the Monsters, and Phish, audiences started growing in the North and West. their ivory tower. Dinner started being arranged (and paid for), gifts were appearing backstage, and more and more execs were asking, "How did you get to this point without an album?" We played. Rags. WIth thte following we had gained it would have been stupid for us to sign away freedom and money to a larger record company. Having sold over 150,000 copies of R2t, and another 25,000 copies of our second release Recentlywe feel very good about our decision. Those two releases are still supporting us very well. CD, UTTAD. I think the control we have over our careers is a result of our grassroots footing. In an industry that doesn't know their teeth from a smile or music from money you need more than a "deal."

I am now going on record and you will all be really surprised when I am correct, but as of 5:05 a.m. I am declaring my picks for the songs on SNL. They will be, WWYS and Two Step. If I am right, then you know I had inside infomation (which I prob. do). If it is wrong, then they changed at the final minute. Later...Jeff p.s. I do infact have inside information in case you are wondering.Top Permalink
Hey there kids, As of 5:14 a.m. Saturday morning i would like to make a wild and crazy guess as to what dave and the boys will be playing tonight. WWYS and .........Two Step yes, that's right, two step. Call me crazy, call me what you will, but I've just got this wild feeling that is what they will play ( a little birdy told me so). And now, on to the show that transpired tonight. First off, Boxing Gandhis had a good stage presence and were good. Next, BHTM were very good towards the end of his set. There was this really hot girl behind me during this part, and anyway, that's another story. Let's just say she was very friendly. Crowd surfers suck. I hate them. I killed one. Warehouse ( i called it way before) Best of what's around Rhyme and Reason Granny (kick ass version) Nor. wood intro Recently Water wine jam Lie in our graves (WOW, best version I've EVER heard), they jammed hard for a while. Dancing Nancies (neat intro) Jimi Thing (jammed) Minarets (original with sounds and everything!!) Typical Situation Carter Beauford on the drums (solo!!) Say Goodbye Satelite Ants Just Dave and Stefan doing new song WWYS (i can't even begin to say how dissapointed I was here, and of course, the crowd sucked. i hate 8 year olds. nuff said) Nature intro Tripping Billies. Over all a fucking great show on Dave's behalf. Not much more to say except that I met Carter and his dog, and Boyd (he's the coolest). Oh, and if anyone was there besides my friends and the frat daddys and the elementary kids who DID tape the show (I saw no mics) please let me know, I would trade you about anything for a decent copy of the show. thanks for your time and attention. Nathan P.S. I met some minarets from Birmingham (UAB and Samford), you guys were pretty cool, see ya around.Top Permalink
I really don't see what every one has against crowd surfing. I was actually on top and it felt good. I know that Dave must have seen me and that is nice to know. I loved the Greenville show... Okay, so maybe I am shitting you guys. After the Greenville show, I have composed a serious list of how to eliminate some of the repeat offenses. They are.... - Punch with fist on any region of body - Pickpocket - Steal Shoes - Punch with fist focusing on genital regions - Grab hair and don't ever let go - Scratch legs as deep as possile with nails or keys - Grab head and force him to fall in front of you - After falling in front of you, commence to beat the hell out of the - Use Swiss Army scissors and cut hair off - Use same scissors and cut the genitalia you punched off - Twist foot in attempt to actually break ankle - Plant drugs on person and tell nearest security officer (although this - Grab leg and when he falls, accidently step on affore mentioned genitalia - Rip out kidneys as he floats bye (only if the other options do not work!) And last but certainly not least... - Shot him with a Glock 9 mm special Any questions? Seriously, most of these are fun to do. I started doing a couple tonight and plan to implement the rest in future concert ventures. I came home with a new hiking boot, a lock of hair, and Mr. William Ganford's wallet with a crisp 50 spot. I plan to use it to buy a matching hiking boot and then buy a new and bigger Swiss Army knife. I do want to let you guys know what the security did, though. As people were crowd surfing, many would throw them over the baracade between the stage and crowd and then the Event Staff would throw them out the door. One guy actually fucking climbed on the speakers in front and thought it was cool. Man, that Satellites song really inspires people now days. The cool thing, no....the REALLY COOL thing was he got his ass kicked by the fucking security. Man, I chatted with the head of security after the show for a good 15-20 minutes and he was laughing his ass off. He said they got in a few blows to "calm" him down and then literally tossed his ass in the street. That was great. Later...Jeff p.s. I hope to get more shoes in Nashville on Monday...maybe tennis shoes this time......well......Frat daddies only wear those cool, trendy Birkenstocks.....fuck it, I could use a pair, why not?Top Permalink
My hopes are for Halloween and Get in Line. Minarets-Bluewater sounds good too, or howabout Spotlight & Say Goodbye? The TV execs would never know what hit 'em. I hope dave ends up in some sort of skit - he really is a funny guy. sidenote- Any tapers around here know anything about the Nakamichi 480 2-head cassette deck? All I know is that it's old and it likes to chew up 100min tapes (must be hungry :). Is it worth getting it repaired? I won't mind if they play ants, but if they do WWYS, they better do something other than the CD version.Top Permalink
Here it is...the official sign-up form for my 2/24/95 DMB Tree at Roseland. The encore at this show featured Trey Anastasio and John Popper jamming along on All Along the Watchtower. The seed was provided by DAT Taper Chris Newhouse (applause,applause). Chris had a soundboard patch and was 2nd in the chain of decks. He recorded the show through his Teac DA-P20 DAT deck onto Sony 90m DDS Media Recognition DAT tapes. Unfortunately, he doesn't have DD capability, so this will be ANALOG ONLY. I will be accepting signups until Friday, April 21, at noon. I urge you to not wait, though; send your signups back out ASAP to insure that they get here.

To all of you people asking the stupid questions about taking Boyd around Charleston I do not mind answering questions that are half-way intelligent but What radio station did yall listen too? What was he wearing? WHAT DOES IT MATTER? And for all you people who flamed me for not doing this or not saying that. Do you think I posted every single thing that was said or did that day. It would have been a violation of EVERYONES privacy that was with us that day! I just wanted to share our expierience with yall with an unbelievably nice band, not post an interview with them which it seems is what some of yall would like. Sorry to seem so mad, it is just fustrating to check your mail box and see a message that your stupid for not doing this or that. Anyway have a good day! P.S. IF ANYONE HAS A TAPE OF 4/8/95 or 12/27/94 PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!! TODDY@CYBERSPACE.COM TODDY@CYBERSPACE.COMTop Permalink

Hey y'all, Sorry to post for selfish reasons but, I would like to get my hands on the Greenville show. I have about 20 hours of DMB w/ some great shows w/peter and tim. Also, I would be willing to send blanks or my list. Thanks in advance, DavidTop Permalink
Hey all, Just got back home from the Greenville show and it pretty much kicked ass!!!!!!!!! I'm sure tons of people have posted stuff about it, but, among other things, I was extremely happy to see Dave throw his hat into the solo ring. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone happened to tape the show. I would love to get my hands on a copy. I access to many shows that could be traded (through friends who also want a copy). Among them Dave, Rusted Root, Edwin McCain, etc. I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks............JasonTop Permalink
hmmmmmmmm, just saw SNL and i must say that i was a bit disappointed with the song selection. i was kinda hoping that they would do a different song other than WWYS and ants (played on MTV spring break, HOB, and Letterman) i mean, they are great songs, i have nothing against them, its just that i was expecting a different song. two step, like some of you predicted, jimi thing, an upcoming single??, or even warehouse, which they teased us with (hmph, whats with that warehouse introants, strange), would seem appropriate "new" songs to play for TV. does anyone know if this was a decision made by DMB solely, or were they pressured by the record execs?? well, no matter. be it WWYS or granny, im always happy to hear dave live. hopefully, _next_ time we'll hear something different. my $.02 ryanTop Permalink
Damn, just got done watching Dave and the boys jammin on SNL. While the songs were not suprising, the way they played them was. First up was "What would you say" which they started off kinda nervous but then as dave started to sing, they relaxed. Boyd was great and the band actually , to my suprise, jammed hard on national TV. Carter seemed to be loving it, smiling in the back, and leroi got a big solo which was great. then for the second song, I was hoping for a non-album tune,like say goodbye. Instead they started an intro to warehouse and I was like "what?", they can't play that. Thats too long for tv. Then they jumped into ants. I was dissapointed at first but it turned out to be a great performance. Boyd was absolutely into the music, it looked like he was breaking strings on his bow if I was not mistaken. It looked like more strings were coming out as he played harder. It was a longer version than I though they wold play. It felt good. The crowd loved it. At the end of the show when courtney said goodbye she had her arm around dave and then gave him a nice hug. Daves a lucky guy. I taped it so i'm gonna go watch it again. Hope you all enjoyed it, I now have new faith in the Dave Matthews Band. They are that good.Top Permalink
okay performance on snl, the two songs were expected, and performed pretty well. the rest of the show zucked. i feel sorry for those people going to the wilmington show. there is no way in hell that the band is going to get up for the show. first of all, they have to do the west coast version of snl, so they probably won't even leave new york until about 5 am. next, the wilmington show starts at 2, so the band will have very little rest. i hope they play well, but to anyone going to the show, don't expect the bestTop Permalink
heya. just saw the snl show on nbc. great stuff, they first played wwys. it was pretty good, seemed like boyd went nutso with his solos. dave also seemed happier playing it than he did for the HOB show. i like to see him smile when he sings. the second song was ants, but they did 5-10 seconds of the warehouse intro, complete with the signal guitar in the beginning. i nearly messed my shorts i was so excited, but then they went into the obligatory drums for ants. good stuff tho. 'What you see is human...' peace.Top Permalink
hello, (which was great!). I think the intro to Warehouse kinda surprised everyone (at least those who know enough DMB). anyway, the purpose of this post ... is it just me of was Dave checking out Courtney Cox hard core? (not that I blame him) PatTop Permalink
WWYS & Ants. But with a warehouse intro to ants???? That screwed me up, I really thought they were going to play Warehouse, which would have been a lot cooler than ants. Boyd's and Leroi did get chances to jam though, and Boyd ROCKED at the end of ants- horsehairs everywhere! The whole band seemed to be really into ants, and their energy showed, but they looked kind of bored during WWYS. I would be too.Top Permalink

Hey this is kinda weird. I've been waiting all night to tape (audio/video) Dave on SNL. Anyways, i'm in Vancouver B.C. and it's 11 PM and most of you out there have seen SNL already. What songs did they play? my personal guess is WWYS and ANts, but what I'd like is for SO much to say and #36 - YEAH RIGHT - in my dreams. well i thought that was kinda weird - Only one hour and 35 minutes till' DAVE- i think i'm going to pee in my pants. jonasTop Permalink

performance. Boyd was absolutely into the music, it looked like he was breaking strings on his bow if I was not mistaken. It looked like more strings were coming out as he played harder. It was a longer version than I though they wold play. It felt good. The crowd loved it. I think *shredding* the bow would be a better way of putting it. Man, does Boyd get into his playing. -WaldoTop Permalink
Because I am stuck here in the middle of nowhere Indiana, I just got to see SNL (one hour delay). However, I am happy to see my boys nonetheless. don't hold that against Dave and the band. It is not their decision anymore. The Ants intro threw me off a bit. But, I still like Ants and was excited to see the band really get into their music. I hope they were having lots of fun... great. Dave looked adorable as usual (my entire floor is in love with him) in his faded henleys and "bowling shoes" that we all love. Boyd was classy. 'Nuff said. But, by far, my most favorite outfit was Stefan's. He looked awesome. The jacket and hat made the image. What a cutie.... maintain that Boyd and Carter do the best job with PR. Dave seems so camera shy. But, even LeRoi and Stefan were shaking hands and Dave sorta hung out near the front of the pack. I don't want to analyze this performance to death, so I will end it here. -Stephanie that is over :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I find sometimes it's easy to be myself. ~~~ DAVE MATTHEWS Sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else. ~~~ BAND ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Stephanie Marie Hintersehr Willkie North #812 Indiana University Bloomington, Indiana 47406 shinters@indiana.edu (812) 857-7605 _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________Top Permalink
Hello fellow 'reters- Well, I have got a few random things to say about life, substances, and oh yeah dmb. Went to the Greenville show last night. I know its been discussed a shitload on here, but this isn't really about the show as much as it is the band. The band is not exhausted as some complained a week or so again. Last night was the wackiest show I have seen in a while. Dave was pretty crazy compared to the other three shows I have seen this semester. It was nice to hear more random noises from dave. He was really reserved last week at duke compared to greenville. it was awesome to be jamming to rhyme and reason and to hear different lyrics during one of the verses. almost like old times when the lyrics to R&R were different every time. still very much like uttad but a little different. what was up with lie in our graves? it was going great. nice leroi solo as usual. it got quiet. the crowd was cheering. i was waiting for "i can't believe that we would lie in our graves" and it never came. the just stopped. i don't know but i was left hanging. it was like this friend of mine who builds up a story but then says "oh nevermind." kinda wacky, kinda different, kinda like it. leave the ordinary, but only a few in the crowd probably knew that the song wasn't over. oh well. the new song that is kinda slow is really good. heard it twice now. kinda rough but kinda sweet. boy, i am kinda using kinda alot tonight. sorry, kinda late. greenville crowd sucked. saw the "look up, look down, all around" head movements. teenage couples making out all around me during satellite. kinda sick. about the choice of songs for snl. anybody ever think that maybe they like to play those songs? i know they probably get sick of hearing people yell wwys, satellite, and ants at shows, but that does not mean they don't like those songs. just because you don't like the songs doesn't mean they don't like it. i respect your right not to like those songs. in fact, i don't like wwys much. i didn't like it before uttad, but they wrote these songs, and these songs probably have some sentimental value to these guys. respect their right to play 'em. keep writing that you don't like songs, that's your right, but don't get your panties or boxers or tighty whiteys in a wad because they play them. cool to hear minarets live last night. have not heard it live since the 9/27/94 uva show. that song is our namesake, yet i never hear anybody talk about it. i think that it is an absolutely incredible tune, especially live. that song is so intense live. well, i have rambled enough. sorry if you read this far and are bored/pissed/tired/etc. sitting here listening to janis joplin. wow. she is the most impassioned singer i have heard. dave's music moves me to great ends, but nothing comes close to the musical high i receive when listening to janis. well, it's time to get some rest, think about live dmb, fall asleep, dream of seeing janis in concert, then pretend i'm the cheshire cat. that's one cool cat. lates, smokes, sweet dreams, dmb shows, buds, and life to you all........tomTop Permalink
okay I know I posted an opinion about the grateful Dead a ways back that was not popular, but I'd like to use a Grateful dead example for second here... If you try to go see a cool band, and expect to be treated well by the security, you should try to control your selves. I'm speaking of the Orlando dead shows last spring where many hundreds of dead heads were maced because a few got rowdy and decided to rush the gates. The Dead is tremendously unpopular in orlando and other venues due to the acts of idiocy and brutality commmited back and forth between the crowd and security. They will never play Starlake again. They will never play the Greek again. crowd surfing, while unpopular with most DMB fans, is NOT best solved by encouraging the security to beat them over the head. Encouraging a security guard to beat up one fan is an excuse for them to beat up another. POlice brutality incites riots...riots incite havoc...havoc is an open invitation to NEVER PLAY THERE AGAIN. If you crowd surf...stop it. Go see Gwar. Go see green Day. Funny thing is, the people who crowd surf aren't wired into the minarets, so this is basically a stupid thing to even post, i know. If you want to see a band come back, however, than you gotta realize that beating up people is not an excellent tactic. The sooner DMB gets a reputation as trouble, the sooner we can no longer see him in our home town. Stomping crowd surfers' nuts is not the answer...IMHO... I just smoked the nastiest clove cigarette ever...yeek SPDLMTTop Permalink
Enough of that subject, Im sure there will be a flood soon. Instead I saw Outbreak, very interesting movie, I would reccomend it. But I think it will give me nightmares. The Colorado Daily just ran an interesting article, not directly about Dave, but major involving him. I am going to cut out the unrelated fufra and then post it soon. Hope everyone had a good night. Peace. BradTop Permalink

This is totally serious, I promise. I have other people that would back me up, one of which is on the Minarets.....but Carter after the Greenville show, around 1:30 a.m., said in response to my question.... on Monday to see you guys in Nashville, hook us up with a nice Two Step?" up. We are considering it for tomorrow actually. That would be cool, right?" But, I guess they decided against it. I am going to call a guy that went to NY to see it and find out if they played anything else in the two rehersal before the show. Just thought I would let you guys know what he said. About the crowd surfing, I know from speaking to a good friend of Boyd's (and a close friendndf mine) that Boyd hates crowd surfing and just the general admission chaos in general. If you hurt someone who is doing it, they probably wont do it again. Maybe, just maybe, they will get pissed off and quit listening to the music. They are losers anyway, so the hell with them. Later....JeffTop Permalink

Is there any word on this? I know it is incomplete, but I think it should be made available anyway. It will evolve just like Phish's Helping Phriendly Book did...once it is posted, people can check what is posted against their setlists and tapes to ensure accuracy. Also, is there a proposed name for it? I think we Minaretters should think hard on a DMB lyric that could serve as a name for this file.

hi all you minaretters. just a few questions if you don't mind. first, i'm wondering if anyone out there has a bootleg from Irving Plaza, New York City, 12/10/93. hey, what does it mean to digestify your mail? i've been on the net for a while but i still don't know what it means...anyway, I'm also looking for any good quality bootlegs with covers, dave and tim only, or maybe something with so "so much to say." everyone talks about it but i've still never heard it! if anyone has what i'm looking for or even just wants to trade, please respond... how many minaretters are there anyway? oh well, just a random thought. i have about 20 dmb tapes, plus mucho others. if anyone wants to schmooze, like talking about dave, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, feel free to Email me. Take it sleazy, everyone, and keep up the support for the boys. jon ( Hallogallo@aol.com ) eat drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die... dave man who go to sleep with itchy ass, wake up with smelly finger... confucious if you want something to believe in, believe in yourself... bob dylan bye allTop Permalink

Is there anyone out there going to the May 4th DMB and BHT in Olympia? Is there anyone tapin this show? If so I would give anything to get a copy - ANYTHING! also, I might as well ask, DMB is coming to Vancouver, B.C. (that's where I live) two days later on may 6th. I haven't seen anyone on this net from Canada, but perhaps some people form Seattle\Portland are coming down. I was also wondering if anyone would happen to be taping this show - because I would give both of my arms for a copy, and I'd through in a couple of shows too. thanks. jonas@unixg.ubc.caTop Permalink
I went to the rehearsal last night for snl. I had traded my necklace for leroi's backstage pass to the spring break show, and he wore it last night, standing out on teh set watching g.e. smith play. i was talking with leroi and it was obvious they were going to wwys and ants. but the warehouse intro caught me off guard. WWYS seemed a little cooler than mtv, letterman, hob, because they jammed a little bit more. During ants, carter was playing so hard he broke his stick near the end. there weren't that many dave fans to my amazement. many people didn't know who he was. everyone at snl loved him, and were asking for his autograph, and hugging them, etc. all in all it was great to see the boyz again. because of ants single coming out soon, they had to pley it to start to build its popuralarity, accroding to leroi.Top Permalink

Can someone help me out getting a portable/wireless 12 Volt power source? I have about 5 five hours tomorrow morning to look for one. If I can find one, I am going to use a four track mixing board on the front row of the balcony to record Dave in Nashville. I have the board, the mics, the cords, but no power supply. Thanks for the one who helps me. Later, Jeff p.s. I hate to even bring this up, but ME and my friend called Boyd's wife today. My friend Steve hadn't phoned them in awhile (Steve and Boyd are good friends) and we all three chatted for some time. Anyways, just for fun, we asked if Dave was aware of the AIDS rumors. She said he knew it was floating around but it is untrue. As for the rest of the conversation, it was just chit-chat about touring and Boyd's other projects. She was really nice on the phone, whereas Carter's fiancee was a bitch in Greenville after the show. Later guys.....Top Permalink
hi all, the show last nite? I don't know if it was nerves, recent press, or fatigue in general? Anyone with the inside scoop or recent conversation with any of them, please reply. i hope that the stress of touring isn't wearing them down. Is the spark gone?Top Permalink
I think that it was a kind gesture of DMB to play that Warehouse opening. It obviously didn't help the song out tremendouly, so they must have played for none other than US. Everybody else in America wouldn't realize that they started one song and played another. They obviously did it for the hard core DMB fans like us. Just to play a little joke on us. Nobody who doesn't own DMB CDs understand what they did, only us. A message from Alex Eaton of Minneapolis, MNTop Permalink
I think that last point that was made about the Warehouse intro was completly true, one for the fans...then again they could have done the 2001 intro or sweet home alamba intro and got a lot of people excited and those people who only own UTTAD thinking, what the ????? Anyway Dave seemed pretty into during Ants, dancing away, doing his little shuffle step...Boyd of course was on!!!! When did he break all those bow strings...perhaps a little Dancing Nancies during a comercial break to get the crowd going?????(proably not) Anyway I was wondering if somebody could answer a question regarding Boyd in particular...Back in the days w/ Peter it seemed that Boyd used a lot more effects on the sound of his violin, has anybody else noticed this...on recent shows(1994 -) it doesn't seem like he's using anything more that a little reverb.... Oh and one last question, does anyone know when DMB made it's first midwestern tour or more speciffically came to Chicago for the first time...just wondering.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Top Permalink

Why does Dave have to play WWYS so much publicly? When I used to watch him every Wed. night at the FloodZone in Richmond, for three bucks I never heard him play the song once. Im surprised they would choose that song for their first single/video over songs like Typical Situation or Jimi Thing. Does the record company truly have that much control over the band, who chose to put out their first CD's under their own record label so they could avoid that type of control. It seems like theyre selling out to RCA. When was the last time someone heard them play Spotlight or hear Boyd as lead vocalist on that song "Find some inspiration, its down deep inside of you..."Top Permalink
hmmm...i dunno, maybe they LIKE the song..... what a wacky thought..... Nine planets round the sun Only one does the sun embrace Upon this watered one So much do we take for grantedTop Permalink
Is it just me, or was dave 80 times more comfortable on national tv last night than he was on letterman? I thought wwys even came off ok.. Ants was cool... it was great to see boyd tear the bow apart and go crazy on tv. did they tease warehouse before ants? or am i going crazy...... and finally.. courtney cox seemed very cozy with dave at the end of the show....no? joshTop Permalink

Could anyone who was at the Orlando show please tell me the name of the last song that they played. I have only heard the songs on the disks, and therefore don't know all of DMB's songs. I have a bet with someone about what the last song was. Thanks in advance. Mail me at bourke@scri.fsu.edu Thanks! -kibblesTop Permalink
Just got back from Easter at home in Baltimore. I thought Dave was great on SNL. No, he and the band didn't look tired at all. If you would have saw him on HOB, you would have seen tired. Oh yeah, they play WWYS in public so much because that is their single. When every other band in the world has a single out, they play the shit out of that single. I think that we should give the boys a break. We (minarets) are the minority of people who like the DMB. Some of us on the net remember seeing him in a room of 50 people for 2 bucks. The point that I am trying to make is that we have to put this into context. If you weren't from Seattle when Pearl Jam first came out with 10, you'd want to hear Alive and Even Flow every second (and most people did). Imagine how annoyed the people in Seattle were. We have been blessed with the opportunity to experience the boys in intimate settings, to hear tunes that no one else in the world has heard, and to (this kind of sucks) criticize the band a little too much. I realized after the RSO show that the days of Floodzone and TRAX were over. They've taken off and we should be a little more supportive and a little less critical. Its all about the music. PERIOD.

Lie In Our Graves Rhyme and Reason Dancing Nancies WWYS Satellite(I almost heaved after this combo...) New Song Jimi Thing Warehouse tease-Ants(like SNL) Warehouse-the real thing... Watchtower Nice, but nothing to pawn the collection for...Sound was much better than Dook(for obvious reasons..), questions?

I'm gonna make this really short because I've got lots to do but I wanted to this before so much time went by that it was irrelevant. The Greenville show was very good, but Charleston has still got it beat. The show was a little shorter, I figure this is because they had to leave for NY that night. I can't complain though, as far as I'm concerned they could have just played Granny and gone home and I would have been satisfied. I can't list all the good things about the the first time I have heard it and I thought they would finish Recently after it but they went straight into the next song. 2) Lie in Our Graves, the whole end of the song was missing ( I think it was a mistake because the lights came on and Dave just looked at Roi and laughed). 3) Blue Water, I thought it was back, well not in S.C., at both shows I got fooled when they played Typical Situation right after Minarets ( somebody said something about Boyd not having many effects lately, maybe this accounts for the lack of the song). 4) Nature, I hope this is not a new trend for the band, playing the first 20 seconds of a song they know we want to hear and then playing something generic. 5) Tripping Billies, they cut this one short leaving out the most worthwile part of the song, Boyd's solo. This ended up being much longer than I planned so I am gonna do you the favor of not critiquing the SNL performance for the 30th time.**************************************************** University of South Carolina :Dept. of Chem.

Hey there, fellow DMB traders. This thread may have been passed around a few times, but I have never seen it. What is your favorite between songs 11/5/93 @ Ziggy's- something to the effect of" It's hot here. Is anyone else hot in here. These heaters are on. (In his best impression of the song,) "The Heat is on". Yes these heaters are on and I think that might be a contributing factor to the warmth of the place" Followed by some classic davetalk that only Dave knows what he is saying. also 12/31/94- "Are y'all staying here tonight? Awwwwwwwwwwww Shit!"Top Permalink
What is the deal with Spotlight? Why do the boys hate it so much? When I was talking to Carter after the Greenville show, my friend said, "Hey, can we ever get Spotlight again?" and Carter started laughing and said, "Ohhh no, man, we stay the hell away from that song. Man, its been two or two and a half years since we did that one." Why is this? Later....JeffTop Permalink
The wilmington show absolutely RULED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good sun, GREAT fun, all due to great friends and a tiny red wristband... The setlist???I'll let someone else provide it, but it was a PERFECT day in the neighborhood for an outdoor show. The intro band...Boxing Gandhis...was pretty good, too. Anyone else think so?? Well, this devout catholic (ahem) had better get some zzzzz's. goodnight...CarrieTop Permalink

I know that People People died after Peter's exit from the band but these are two great DMB tunes that I sure are sorley missed by many...I know the DMB w/ Peter debate vs. DMB w/o Peter debate has reared it's head many a time on Minarets but perhaps a new discussion topic might(or perhaps it's old) who might be a good and somewhat permant keyboard addittion to DMB...so what do you all think, if you could pick a new keyboardist for DMB who whould it be???? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Top Permalink
