4. they released 2 with the new album and now these 2. They have a DL version where they have done maybe a dozen shows. maybe more (?). So I expect those to be in the pipeline. I enjoy these shows more than the live Trax TBH. Better era IMO and reminds me of the tapes I used to trade for when I was in High School.
Good show in Philly. Was hoping for a couple of the songs they started out the tour with but Say Goodbye and So Right made up for it.
We had great Cville shows and prints.
Outstanding posters! And I heard the shows were awesome as well!!
You got more room on your wall for another framed Tsang or Flames?
I'm actually rotating prints in and out of frames now. I do this with PJ prints too. It's amazing how many mat combinations can be reused and look great. Makes my life easier and cheaper. I've been out of room for some time.
My fav poster from weekend was actually the Methane tour poster. There have been three Tsang DMB prints, Tampa 16, Va Beach 18 and now C'ville, and coincidentally I was at all three shows. And yes, they were dynamite shows. The best was the opening act, which was the New Orleans Preservation Hall Jazz Band. They are a true jazz band and they killed it! Then they came out and played with DMB during the show and it was a blast. So...many...horns.
RSD were $45 at my store, and with these black vinyl versions being $35 for a 4LP sets... wow these sets are priced great.
So how many of these types of releases has dmb done on vinyl? I love the simplicity of the packaging.
I love the packaging also, I have said it before, but they remind my a lot of the 2000 PJ boots.
Did you (or anyone) get these? I never pulled the trigger since I have so much DMB live already. Are they special, audio wise, or do they sound digital?
So The DMBLive is different than the live trax. The Live Trax are multi channel sources with a good AUD mix (Pretty sure it was 96 when they started multitracking the shows) and are professionally mixed. DMBlives are sourced from DATs of old board mixes and have minimal post. So these are warts and all type live releases. That being said, the pressings are well cut and well made. The shows don't have the oomph that the well mixed LTs do. But they are mixed to sound better than the DSBDs that were traded back in the 90s. Its probably the only ways we are gonna get great old DMB shows.

I have the first two and I think your assessment is dead on. I do think that the Live Trax boxes sound amazing though, far superior than the Live Series. I'm sure the lack of remixing is where we save the money. BTW - the best, by far, DMB live is the Live 25. I almost didn't pull the trigger when it was released due to the price, but I'm so glad I did. The sound is spectacular and the choices they included were a die-hard's dream. https://www.discogs.com/Dave-Matthews-Band-DMB-Live-25/release/10575302

I second the Live 25 assessment. Great set. Only live trax set I own is #2 San Fran because I was there, but it does indeed sound better than the dmblive sets to me. All in all though, dmb and phish I feel do a tremendous job in their vinyl issues, sadly much better than pj.

Much better, which makes no sense. PJ album sound like a veil is over them. Let's Play 2 sucks. But their FLAC 24 releases are fantastic! It makes no sense. DC 98 vault is the exception though.
That's cool that you were at the San Fran show. That's a great release, great set, in the middle of their peak as a group I think. The catalog was so great through the Lillywhite/Busted Stuff that anything they played was going to make me happy.
Hey if anyone wants the Live at Red Rocks Set I’ll sell it for $60 shipped. Only played it once and it’s just taking up vault vinyl space on the shelf. let me know

Yeah I lived in the Richmond district right down the street from golden gate park in my early 20’s while in culinary school. That year I actually saw dmb, willie Nelson for free, and a few other randoms in the park, just by walking down the street going through the woods and sneaking into the shows. The good old days I suppose
WAREHOUSE question. Is it possible to request GA PIT only? In other words if I don't get selected for GA PIT, I don't want a secondary option just PIT tix.

Yes

Strange tour this year. No Cleveland, Pittsburg or Virginia Beach. These are staples for 25 years. Im bummed by no Virginia Beach. I hate going to Bristow.
