  • no no no let me get this straight

    dave matthews and his band have made some of the greatest music ever in the history of man kind. which happened in the 90's.

    now, they are probably the 3rd most annoying band in the industry behind Nickelback and Fallout Boy. seriously its ridiculous. i think i might take down my dmb poster. they are not what they used to be. :(

  • Got no reason to hate this band. I was really impressed with their cover of "All a long the Watchtower". The drummer is almost up their with Matt Cameron IMO.
  • Don't drink the water is still an amazing song.

    BTW, i was in a fraternity in college. there were several pearl jam fans but nobody really listened to DMB to all.

    i just blew everyone's mind...


    Nah being in a frat you probably just blew everyone...

  • Most people dont actaully like the music, they just like it because its popular to like the band. DMB is for white upper class preps, frat boys, and sorority girls.


    I have freinds that have worked at Alpine Valley during the concert season. DMB fans are the worst they tell me everytime. Just a whole bunch of assholes.

  • LOL "up there with matt cameron" you fucking kidding me?

    news flash: carter pwns all. have a nice day
  • I've got no reason to hate DMB. I am not up with their new stuff, but I like most of the older stuff. I've heard that in general they put on good live shows, and the two I've seen where excellent. Granted, I haven't heard them live in 5 years or so, so maybe they are getting repetitive these days.

    I don't know many 15 year old girls who like them. Ya know, since they don't have the dyed black myspace haircuts and the angst.

    i find that it's good practice not to say things through your computer monitor that you'd never (ever) say to somebody in real life.

    directing gay jokes at fake internet people isn't a healthy release for whatever personal problems you might have.

    just a thought...

    as for DMB, they're alright. they're good musicians but i'm just not a huge fan of the songwriting, unfortunately. i saw them at the tibetan freedom concert in '98 and i was impressed by their performance.
  • What I don't get is how I can hate DMB live music so much, but absolutely love any Dave Matthews and Tim Rynolds set.

    It seems so irrational--yet it is fact.

    i know what you mean....PJ are the same....havnt released a good album since Vitalogy, and they dont even do fuckin videos anymore???
    :D

    seriously why do so people care who else listens to a band or if his fans are preppy kids or whatever? fuckin hell thats such a ridiculous reason to not like a band
  • I liked DMB when I first heard the Under the Table album. I thought Satellite was a great song. I liked them up until Crash was released. I found that one to be boring and basically lost interest in them. I must admit, I was glad that I lost interest in them before the big "it's the hip and trendy thing to like DMB" wave hit. I liked being different from the rest of the masses at the time.

    Carter is the MAN. To me he's right there with Neil Pert. The whole band are great musicians.

    I am not such a huge fan anymore of DMB but still consider them a great band. I saw them tour for their second cd (what was the name?) and got to see an unbelievable show. They have a great live show.

    lets be honest here. the dave matthews band sucks. their past 5 live albums have sucked and will continue to suck. their past 3 studio albums have sucked and will continue to suck as the new songs they road tested suck. dave matthews can no longer sing. butch taylor is boring. they do the same shit every night. they have a new song about cornbread. they like to release pretty much every shitty concert they play because they know that every 15 year old girl in america will preorder it with their dads credit card because its DAVE, without realizing it's the same shit they've heard before only worse.
