  • Went to the Dave & Tim show on Friday in Oakland. It was an amazing show that was being filmed. Hopefully they release the video & audio sometime soon. Here is a picture of the set list & poster from the show.

    I want to see one of their shows sometime. The cds of their concerts are my favorite Dave Matthews cds. I like them better than the full band discs!!

    I'm sure it was excellent, but I don't love that setlist. Maybe it's sacrilegious but I think that sometimes Dave is a little tone deaf on the way he puts a set together. Sometimes he'll string together 3-4 slow songs in a row which kills the flow of the show. And it's different than when PJ does it since his songs are so much longer. Then his encore will be something like Belly Belly Nice and The Space Between, or other odd selections. Those songs are fine, and I don't complain if they are song #3, but you don't want to go out like that.

    Anyway, I'll make at least two shows this year like every year, but I think he needs to shake things up a bit to keep the energy flowing during the show. Go back to the way he did sets from 2000-2005. IMO.

    Jealous, perfectlefts- D&T must've been a terrific experience! I wish they toured more, it's probably #1 on my Shows I Have To See list!

    And mrussel1, I think certain songs are the culprit for me when it comes to killing the set, not the set in general. During 2013 when Mercy>Out Of My Hands was a thing, that just completely lost the crowd. If Only did the same--gorgeous song, but the outro just went on wayyy too long. Or even when certain jams are too close together in the set (say, for example Seek Up and Proudest Monkey), it can sometimes take the wind out of the sails. But all in all, I'm still stoked to see DMB take the stage every time I attend a show!

    Also last hopes for this? :)

    I went to Citi on the pre-sale on Monday for both Virginia shows and the tickets SUCKED! They were in the back of the pavilion. Last year I was able to grab 6 GA's. This year not only were there no GA's, but the limit was 2 for GA, 4 for reserved. I didn't even do it. I'll wait until right before the show to see if things open up. Very disappointing.

    Went on right at 10, pulled crap seats once, then was either shut out completely or kept pulling lawn. Had my bf try also so we could increase the chances of getting decent seats, he only got crap seats too. Pulled the trigger, though--at least they are in the pavilion. I miss my friends Warehouse tickets! Too bad we all live in different states now. Excited nonetheless to see DMB again, though!

    It's been a while!!

    If anyone else was watching their Legends On Letterman stream (they played just over an hour), the band played a new song! Called "Black and Blue Bird" (blue bird? bluebird? we'll see), and I really dug it! Mellow, mid-tempo, but still had a little groove. Enjoyed the lyrics too! Always stoked to hear the band is working on new stuff.

    Haven't listened to them since Busted Stuff which is their best. Tried out their last few albums at least once on Spotify recently, though. Beauford is one of the best living drummers ever.

  • Great band. Just a cool and unique sound that has a big place in my world.

    Thanks for black and bluebird, Sam.

    Agree about Busted Stuff. Fantastic album. And it goes without saying IMO that Carter is an absolute freak of nature!! I spend most of the show watching him. Got tickets to both Canadian dates this summer and I can't wait!!!
