Subject: shawn's mystery song
this is pretty much for shawn, but i figgered everybody would want to know: that song your talking about, shawn, is the new song in it's earliest stage. listen to the part of the new song where he's singing "goodbye..." and then compare the chord progression to your mystery song. you'll find that your mystery song is just that same chord progression, repeated dozens of times. he used to play that mystery song during his acoustic intros at the flood zone, and claimed both times i heard it that he was making it up on the spot, which i don't doubt in the slightest. rick

Subject: nye setlist
here's the new year's eve setlist with some comments:
set I set II
satellite ants marching
song that jane likes dancing nancies
one sweet world minarets
tripping billies jimi thing
lie in our graves seek up
granny pay for what you get
#36 true reflections
what would you say (tri poetry rap)
watchtower
recently
e:
christmas song
warehouse
some where along the way the band decided they'd break their
most recent tradition of playing straight, so it proved to be
interesting at times. overall, i can say i've seen better
shows, but this was still pretty intense. the dancing nancies
kicked some serious ass, and the tripping billies was one of the
best i've ever heard.
i'm the only netter who got a copy, but i gave subscription
instructions to 2 other tapers. i can't copy this show for
anyone, because i don't have any way to dub. (not to mention
that i didn't get that oh so kick ass dancing nancies).

Subject: New Dates
Howdy one and all. This is Alex Crothers giving you those long awaited Jan. and Feb. DMB dates. I'm still not back at school but am logging in at the Univ od Deleware under a friend's (James Dawson) account. I won't have Internet access until Jan 17th or 18th but that shouldn't stop anything since Minarets is almost completely automated. Just got off the phone with DMB managment (Jane) and here is what they (she) had to say: -NYE went tremendously well. -The Colorado shows are also going well. -Things are extremely busy Now for the January and February dates: 15th-Fox, boulder CO 16th-Fox, Boulder CO 18th-Benchwarmers, Lawrence Kansas 20th-Blind Pig, Ann Arbor Michigan 21st-Schuba's Chicago IL 22nd-Schuba's Chicago IL February: 2nd-TBA 3rd-Ivory Tusk Tusch... Alabama 4th-GA Theatre Athens GA ****** 5th-GA Theatre Athens GA ****** 8th-Attic Greenville, NC 9th-Teradactyl Club Charlotte NC 10th-Ziggy Winston-Salem 11th-Gilford College Gilford NC 12th-TBA Knoxville, TN 15th-Cat's Cradle Chapel Hill 16th-Rockefellers Columbia SC 17th-Mad Monk Wilmington NC 18th-Music Farm Charleston SC 19th-Druyry Springfield Missouri 22nd-TRAX !!!!! 23rd-Floodzone !!!!! 24th-TBA 25th-Sweetbriar College Lynchburg, VA 26th-Bayou Washington DC That's all for now but that should hold everyone over for awhile. I apologize for misspellings and the likes. Jane sounded busy and I didn;t want to make her repeat everything I wasn't sure of. Only a couple were totallyunclear after getting off the phone with her. For instance, the place in Springfield Missouri. I'm not sure if I caught that right or not but it seems a little off. Maybe someone out there in Internet land who knows what that club's/college's/bar's real name is. The other one as the Ivory Tusk in Alabama. I couldn't catch the spelling of the town it's in but I'm sure anyone from that area knows what the hell it is. I need to ask a favor to someone out there: Could someone please forward these dates to Bruce Wilner. I believe his Email address is bwilner@colorado.edu or something like that. He runs Horde.Net and needs these dates for the Horde.Net file on DMB. Thanks in advance. Alex Crothers

Subject: DMB and Colorado
Well, My brother just came back from a ski trip from aspen. He was telling me
how it went as I was listening to DMB. Conversation went like this:
Bro: Who's This?
Me: DMB (Spoken in full)
Bro: Oh, really, I heard their name in several different conversations
while in colorado.
Me: Nose Hair.
Bro: Graples.
Aparently they have a crowd there already.

Subject: more happy mments about nye...
for the sake of boredom, and giving minarets netter's something to
read, i thought i'd share some more personal expriences from nye.
first of all, during the show, i bumped into one of my hallmates
from school last year, and in his drunken stupor he nearly knocked
tapers station over. so i nearly knocked his head off, but we caught
ourselves in time.
overall, security was a joke(unlike phish at bender arean--p-shaw...).
if i hadn't had the curse of an active set of car keys, i would have
been toasted beyond all recognition, and in general, i have _never_
in my entire life seen that many thouroughly obliterated people in
one place at one time. it was a beautiful site;).
after the show, i tracked down chris tetselli to get my hands on a
coupla tapes, and he invited me upstairs. this is where it got
really strange. what happens when you stuff 30 people into a marriot
elevator meant to hold about 15? uh, it breaks. we were aiming for
16th, but someone had hit all 18 buttons, and starting about on the 5th
floor, the elevator started missing floors. the doors would open and
we'd find ourselves stuck b/w floors. it was pretty distressing, and
when it would finally open out onto an actual floor, 10 more people
would freak out and push there way off the elevator. the elevator
finally dumped me and clare off on 18 and we walked back down.
after we hung out in chris's room for a while, we headed back out,
and while we were waiting for the elevator, leroi appeared out of
nowhere to get a pepsi(lord knows what he wanted a pepsi for in his
condition...).
anyway, i know this was pretty useless info, but minarets net has been
so dead this week, with only about three schools back in session,
i just thought i'd share...
talk to ya'll later...

Subject: get this net going...question for Rick.
Welcome back to school/work everyone. Happy New Year! I hope everyone did something interesting over break. NYE in Richmond sounds like it went well...Worchester was crazy also. Ok, does anyone know the name of the women that sings with Charlotsville All-Stars, Alma and Tim/Tr3 on occasion? Now that DMB isn't playing every week in C-ville and Richmond do you think an incarnation of the All-stars will take over their slot?

To all those who plan on seeing Dave in Chicago on Jan. 21, 22: According to the bar they're playing at, Schuba's, DMB is officially only playing on the 21st. The show on the 22nd is contingent on the 21st show selling out. The bar only holds 140 people so I can't imagine it not filling up (I'll be bringing along about 20 folks with me). But plan on going to the Fri. nite (21st) if you're going to one only just in case. I got the chance to see DMB in Winston-Salem and in Richmond over break. Both good shows, although similar set lists. Ziggy's was a really cool bar and a great place to see DMB, but NYE was a bit of a let down for me. BOB IS WASTED RIGHT NOW

Subject: The Authority
Nothing much seems to be happening on Horde.net so I'll post this here instead. The Authority is playing here in Norfolk on Jan. 27th and I'm wondering if they'll allow me a soundboard patch. Has anyone taped these guys before. When they opened for DMB I only taped DMB and I think Jeff was doing sound. If anyone is near the Norfolk VA area, come on out. ODMBC: Dave has opened for the Authority and the Authority has opened for Dave.
