The OFFICIAL DMB Thread

Respectfully disagree.

[Giff]

Respectfully disagree.

You can, but I'm pretty sure they're not changing either the album release or tour stop date.

Happy new album day to those who celebrate. I really enjoyed the first listen; think there will be some good concert song off of this album.

They did some promotional stuff.
Good interview article that goes people loving and hating them and other stuff: https://www.gq.com/story/dave-matthews-profile

And this was fun for some good DMB history and Davespeak

That GQ article was great.

[Giff]

About to give it a listen. And US tour opener tonight baby!!

[Giff]

Upon first listen, my impression is they continue to make the second halves of their albums my favorite.

[EdRomero]

Favorite songs until I change my mind a few times are All you wanted was Tomorrow and Monsters

[Giff]

They were both outstanding last night. Another awesome show.

Goddammit, I might be back after like 20-25 years. The promo behind this new album has me appreciating DMB and wanting to to jump into what I've missed all these years.

[EdRomero]

Good news is their setlists have gotten incredible over the last 2 weeks. Bad news is I got Covid probably from a friendly NH DMB fan.

I might not make it to sundown if I tried to do a DMB + SPAC day like 20-25 years ago.

[EdRomero]

[Giff]

That is awesome!! My favorite DMB song.

[EdRomero]

I'm guessing they play that less than 20% of their shows so it was quite the win for him.

[Giff]

I’ve only heard it a handful of times in the 35 times I’ve seen them. The first time was in San Antonio when I got to go for free because of a story I don’t tell very often.

My buddy in West Palm had Memorial Dave Weekend at the shed he manages. Was that from this weekend?

I got it tonight in a twist. Was expecting Rapunzel and got Pig! And my wife’s favorite as the closer. Great night!

I have to wait until July to see them. Did they do the full Last Stop ending or cut it short?

[Giff]

I think full? But they either did a little different version or Dave flubbed the lyrics at one point towards the beginning.

[EdRomero]

After the big buildup, they transition to the peaceful ending, with Dave singing, "Come in from the cold.." A few years ago they would just end the song at the big buildup, which I did not like.
An example of a longer slow ending:

[Giff]

It was not that.

I love the focus on Before These Crowded Streets last night. Also, his solo stuff is pretty great live too.
