Well it was another exhilirating experience tonight. It was great to meet Jason, Clare, Blake, Rob and Kwon once again. Sorry Clare, no Lover, but you gotta give em credit for dat Jimi Tang. The first set was pretty much a Remember two Things set, but the second set more than made up for it. The first set was actually really short and Dave seemed to be a little tired or something, but something happened backstage in that 45 minute set break that brought the band back in more than full force. Oh yeah hello to my other netter friends that I attended the show with Rich, Brian and Kenny...the JMU cheering section. Yeehoo! Out of breath in Gtown, Jamie Cogbill

Considering the present debate concerning WSP's taping policy, I have a little story of someone who has their head screwed on properly. One of my friends who went to the Raleigh WSP and DMB had spoken with DMB's soundboard man (JEFF?????) at the DMB show at Cat's Cradle last week and had asked if he could tape Dave at the Ritz, and of course was given a welcoming yes. However, when my friend tried to bring his deck into the Ritz, he was seriously hasseled by the huge, muscle-rippling bouncers who told him that they did not think they could allow anyting like that into the show. However with a little eloquence, these mental-midgets were circumvented. He then faced more problems with WSP's soundboard man who would not allow any patching, even during Dave. So, the badass DMB soundboard man taped the show for my friend on their soundboard deck. Yes,yes,yes, I wish there were more people like that in this world. Merc

Subject: bayou 2/26/93 and other stuff...
hey everybody... i just got home from a breathtaking weekend. yes, jamie, you're right. that was an INTENSE jimithing. lie in our graves, too. they were both amazing. there was a gross amount of netters at this show!!! it was so awesome to finally meet everyone, and to meet so many at one time. the only person i didn't meet was kwon, who came over and chatted with my companion after the show. i figured out who he was after we left. but all in all there were 11 netters there. it was so cool!!!!!! hope i didn't come across as a crazed bitch, but i was utterly excited. i liked the bayou's layout, too. great sound, and for being somewhat small, it was very comfy. i'll refrain from complaining about parking... apparently there was a problem with the setup/soundboard area concerning tapers. so nobody got plugged in until the second set. the wierdest thing arose concerning taping, too. you had to have bayou permission. in writing. i'm serious. tapers got stickers from jeff that said something like, 'bayou guest... dave matthews band... audio recording...' tapers had to wear these while taping or get kicked out. i laughed my ass off. we were all joking around at the soundboard about these damn stickers!!! jamie origionally mentioned the style article... i got a copy as i breezed through my hometown of richmond. coran was the one interviewed about minarets.net, and it included a number of interesting facts concerning sales, the death of dave's sister, etc. if people are interested... i'll type it out sometime and post it. just let me know, so i don't do all that work for nothing:) great again to meet all the netters, too many to post names, but most especially passal. taggin along with the breeze, clare emily

Lie in Our Graves #36 Jimi THing Warehouse Watchtower E:Ants Generally it seemed to me that this was a rather uninspired performance by the band. I love every show I go to, but this was the worst which I have attended. It seemed like everything was going wrong, Stefan's bass, and the one thing that angered me above all was the monitor control woman, who they must have dragged off the street, because she kept fucking w/ the monitor sound, turning it up and down during songs, how annoying. I was sitting behind her and and saw her fucking w/ the dials. Finally I asked her if she knew what she was doing which she did not take kindly to. Did anyone else notice this? What is everybody else's reaction to the show. And not Jamie, because I already heard your reaction in the bathroom of New South 1, anyway it was cool meeting you. P.S.-Hi Bruce.

Well, everybody, today was just awesome... Currently I am what you might call an "intern" of John Alagia...or you could say that I'm the person that gets to do the mindless stuff for him that he doesn't have time for. What I do, or what I did today was go over to his house and work on transferring some music by up and coming bands around DC to tape for a project or organization known as WAMA (Washington Area Musicians Assoc. or something like that). I also did organizing and like I said...mindless work. But oh am I so happy to be doing it. It all came about when I was at the Grog and Tankard last week w/ Christopher Sabec last week to see Derryberry & Alagia and John asked me for my help due to his overwhelming workload. Well, even if he wasn't completely serious about following it up, I was...and I sort of bugged him about it, until now, and it has finally become a reality. John is a really great guy and he was very receptive and actually enthusiatic about talking to me about the band while I was over there today. Also after I took the cab over there today...a certain someone was still there recovering from a good sleep after an intense show...yes, it was DAve. He left soon after, but it was so neato to be over there. I also got to go out to a coffee house with Christopher Sabec and chat over a cafe au lait and cookies (sorry, Christopher I forgot the name of that type of coffee cookie). All in all it was a great day for the number one DMB fan. <---(hope this arouses fierce debate.) Sleep well all. Jamie Cogbill

Subject: When they open 4 Phish
My sister and I were debating about this on Saturday- When DMB opens for phish do you think they'll play a more straightforward album song orientedset (like Set I at the Bayou on Sat.) or will they jamout (like set II)? I certainly prefer the latter option and also think that If they want to impress uninitiated Phish fans, they really gotta jam (although I guess lots of the people there will already be DMB fans, just cause of the location). Have they played with WSP yet? What was that like? Just wondering, Marco EsKWONdolas.

recommend other bands or other nets; I check it out. This is fun. I enjoy

for someone in California to get ahold of some DMB? I'd love to get a tape.
Should I check out the cd? When can I expect a show in CA?

Hey to all you out there. just a couple things about the bayou show the other night 2/26. In defense of boyd...... I found that from where i was standing (above Boyd top left hanging off) Boyd's violin sounded incredible. Maybe it was that I was getting most of the sound out of the monitor rather than PA or the actual violin but it sounded incredible. He is also in my opinion better than most of you give him credit for. Watching his fingers move on the next i would be suprised if you guys out there who play guitar could play his satellite intro (i think it was satellite) on guitar. I play my self and would be impressed with myself if I could.... also what more do you want Boyd to explore with everyone else in the band is playing a blues/rock/whatever instrument except Boyd he is taking a strictly classical instrument and making it fit in a blues/jazz/rock/whatever band on that fact alone Boyd stands out whether or not you think he is good is one thing but give credit where credit is due..... And on the Goose...... Where Brian and I were standing on Sat. night was right at the door where the band went on stage and.....when they first came out I carefully stepped out of the way to allow all members passage or what i thought was all the members. Leroi was still lagging behind....so to get me out of the way of the door which i was then blocking he grabbed my ass! just a funny story i though i would relate.

Coran is very thoughtful and intelligent as a concert promoter. On Fri. the 18th of March and Sat. the 19th DMB will be playing at Schuba's in Chicago IL. Both nights?? there are Dead shows before (at least one of the nights) the shows and should hjave time to get from them (the Dead show) to Schuba's. you may have to start making your way out of the show during the encore and fly out of there so as not to get caught in the traffic that 50,000? people bring. the Irving Plaza show in NYC is similiar. I believe the Dead play Nassua on the 23rd,24th and 25th DMB plays on the 26th and then the Dead play three more nights at Nassua. again i'm not exactly sure on the Dead dates but it works something like that. someone elaborated on the Schuba show but i couldn't dig up the message. can anyone else detail this more? alex Crothers

Subject: Bayou and other stuff
Some other thoughts on the Bayou: Something was definitely amiss in the first set. Did anyone else notice that Carter didn't sing at all during the set. It was back to normal in the second, but there seemed to be just a general slow feeling to the first set, that luckily changed after that really long set break. I also have to agree about the monitor sound person. I was near the front by the board and there seemed to be confusion throughout the whole show. Otherwise, was a great show and it was really good to see the band outside of Richmond. I was also wondering about the song "Best of What's Around." Everyone seems to know the song, but the last time I saw it performed was in early Sept. at the Floodzone. Has the band just dumped the song? I hope not. Although it's not one of the most jammin' songs out there, it would be nice to hear once in a while. I hate to do this, but would anyone happen to have a tape of the band from Floodzone, Sept. 1 at the Floodzone, or any tape with the "Doobie Thing" intro to Ants Marching. I have tapes to trade and would be very appreciative. Sorry if this message is too long or hard to follow or completely irrelavent, but my mind is a little slow from the weekend. By the way, there were two other netters at the Bayou. I wish I could have met you the other netters. jim

Management has an account that is subscribed to minarets, as do the designers of the album, as does DMB's lawyer. so in reality there are three accounts somehow related to the band directly that check out the net. but....this doesn't mean that they actually read minarets. in fact, recently i had to make a decision about DMB "monitering" minarets. at first, i got that Big Brother feeling and was very skeptical. Minarets, in my mind at least, should be a place where talk is free to move in whatever direction it moves (to a degree...PhishNet may have taken this a little too far?) without outside interference. i was afraid if someone was "monitering" minarets and things came up that were somehow contrary to the band they would intercede and "straighten things out." after discussing this (in a roundabout way) i've assumed that whatever 'official' eyes that are out there watching are doing so because of their pleasaure for the band and not to moniter minarets in anyway. in any case, many of the accounts remain unchecked for days and weeks. they usually contact me when something comes up that i(minarets) should know about and i get in touch with them when a question pops up on minarets that needs an immediate answer. alex Crothers

Subject: paige, best, and boyd...
my first thought is a quick thought: jimi thing, paige.
little room to think about that one. aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh.
also, the last time i saw dave play best of what's around was when
i interviewed him here at jmu (meaning i was in the same room and
he was playing my guitar...................narf). my impression is
that he's tiring just a little of the song. i'd wait until this summer
to see it again, and to the person who's really pestering him for it,
we all know that that only buggs him, and your a lot less likely
to hear it. the only time he's ever played a request for me was when
he played so much to say on 7-14-93 after a good 5 month hiatus.
and last but not least, my $.02 on boyd, for the fourth time:
nobody, and i mean nobody, on this net is going to say that dave matthews
band should kick boyd out. nobody hear really disrespects boyd, a lot of
us just think that he tends to give into a really commercial oriented
mood a lot of the time. for those of you who like the lyrics to true
reflections, more power to you. but have you _ever_ heard them jam the
song out? i haven't. (tri-poetry jams don't count, imho) but if you
go to a good seek-up or blue water it's just sickening the level to which
boyd takes it, and there are a lot of people who i can speak for when i say
we need to see more of that.

How come Phish at Bender cost me $20 (plus 3.50 tickmast), but Phish with DMB
costs $16? Maybe they're trying to make it up to me for paying the $9.50 at
Trax (it used to be $5).
Also, for whoever asked about the Best of What's Around, they played it at
Trax Nov.2 and 23rd. It is always nice to hear Carter's intro drum roll.
They played this all the time in '92, I don't know why they stopped; I'll
take it over One Sweet World (or True Reflections or Lover(sorry clare)
anyday.)
Why is it that lately DMB starts out with the same few songs for about a
month straight? (Seek, Tripping, Jane, One Sweet)

Subject: how to undigestify minarets.net
recently a coupla people have asked me how to undigestify minarets
net, and this is what i found out, just in case anyone else is
wondering:
the listproc doesn't support a command to simply undigestify the
net, so the only way to do it is to unsubscribe, and then resubscribe.
the cool thing is you can do both in the same message. just send in
a message with the two lines as follow:
unsubscribe minarets
subscribe minarets <your first name><your last name>
and about 2 minutes later you will be privy to an undigestified
minarets net.
remember, the address is <listproc@moose.uvm.edu>, and make sure
that when you tell freinds how to subscribe that you give them this
address so that we can keep subscription messages to a minimum here
on minarets.net.

STYLE WEEKLY 28 Feb, 1994
RICHMOND RAVES by Andy Garrigue
With a record-breaking first disc out, Dave Matthews Band makes a
triumphant return.
Fans knew that it was only a matter of time. That one day they would ve
able to get their hands on a Dave Matthews Band compact disc instead of the
bootleg concert tapes they had been surviving on forever. They also knew
that one day the band would sign a major-label recording contract. THe
momentum had been building for months. With weekly shows at the Flood Zone
and Charlottesville's Trax consistently attracting more than 500 people,
how could it not happen?
At the strike of midnight this past Nov 9, the band's first compact disc,
"Remember Two Things" went on sale. Before the day was done, one record
store in C'ville rang up more than 1,100 copies, DMB had sold out another
Trax show and the ink was drying on a multiple-album recording contract
with RCA records. According to Big Shots Records out of Athens Ga, who
shipped 12,500 DMB discs in the first two weeks, "first-day sales of this
album were bigger than any artist outside REM and Widespread Panic."
Peter Robinson manager of the A&R label for RCA, commenting in a phone
interview, said, "I haven't seen anything like that before for an
independent release. It comfirms our belief that they're going to be big,
that they're doing to grow and grow and grow, be a career artist. And
we're going to be in it with them for the long haul."
Word about the band, which features violin, saxophone and Matthews'
distinctive vocals in a free-ranging melodic mix of jazz, world-beat, folk
and pop, has spread by several methods: Bootleg tapes have made the rounds
of friends and college radio stations. There's a Dave Matthews E-net on
Internet so fans can communicate with each other. Called "minaret," after
one of Matthews' songs, it began at the University of Vermont and is solely
fan operated. According to manager Coran Capshaw, "It's traveled across at
least 28 states and to Austrailia and Canada." Capshaw estimates the
recording is now sold in 25 states, with total sales over the last three
months approaching 25,000.
With the release of "Remember Two Things," the band scaled back on area
performances. On Feb 24, the band makes their first performance in
Richmond since playing at the Marriot on New Year's Eve. After this show
at the Flood Zone, the band's next Richmond date is April 3, when they'll
perform on Brown's Island with Widespread Panic.
A January tour of Colorado was cut short when news came form Matthews'
native South Africa that his sister had been murdered by her husband, who
then took his own life, orphaning their two small children. Matthews flew
there to be with his family. When Matthews returned, the tour resumed, and
two shows at a 1,000 seat venue in Athens sold out in four hours.
How this family tragedy will affect Matthews' music remains to be seen,
but there's no question about from where his emotional support has been
coming. Commenting on the band's future after bing signed by RCA, he said,
"I think our success so far has been because we've stayed together. And
the remainder of what comes in the future relies very much on us remaining
a tight unit. However we mature together in the business, or manage to
survive whatever comes to us, the main focus for me is for us to stay
together. Then everyting will take care of itself."
there you go everyone... pretty interesting facts, huh?
any net comments??????

Hey all, The band put on a heck of show last night. I was surprised with the amount of people that came out (300-400) being it was the Tuesday night before Spring Break, AND more importantly, no CD store in town carries their disc. It's amazing what a listing in Rolling Stone can do...Anyway it was the second time i saw them. The first time being way back in '91 at Brown's Island in Richmond. I was really impressed--here's the sets with a few comments to follow... Set I Tripping Billies Intro-One Sweet World Lie in Our Graves Satellite (under 21 crowd goes nuts at beginning) Warehouse Recently What Would You Say True Reflections Set II Minarets Typical Situation Dancing Nancies Jane Ants Watchtower E: Xmas Song Halloween The crowd was interesting, not only larger than expected but younger. But a friend of mine in Richmond says the under 21 crowd digs Dave. There were a couple people from up north Spring Breaking and following Dave on the way downjudging by the conversation I overheard. They were yellin for Halloween all night. Kinda annoying...Onto the show--it was rockin and jamming, notmuch on the mellow side. Dave even said before Xmas Song something like."We do have a softer side, you just haven't seen it too much tonight--I guess were just pumped to be out of the f***ing cold weather." I was a little disappointed with Dave's vocals--he was hard to understand, but the recordings I have sound kinda the same. I got that consensus from the friends with me. Highlights, besides Carter the whole night, man does he go off (and sing too), were True Reflections (about 8-9 minutes) and a rocking Watchtower, which Boyd and Dave started off with a little picking duel. That's all I can think of now..maybe more later. No tapers... Peace Brian

well first of all, i must have missed somewhere that bit about his sister being murdered by her husband... that's awful. i thought it had been a car accident. wow. that makes things even more crushing for dave... i actually wrote a song to dave after that happened (in his "style", too -- or as best i could manage his vocal style anyway). maybe i'll send it to him now. do they accept mail at trax? to be honest, as much as i hope y'all get to hear a really jammin' set with phish, i'd bet a dollar to a donut that you'll get remember 2 things. the band is business-minded in a very subtle way (some of you have probably noticed this) and it makes sound financial sense to push their album. so i'm sure they will. they have success in mind (who wouldn't, really) and dave has already said -- jokingly, in part, i'm sure -- that he wants to make loads and loads of money. he was kidding, but not too much. anyway, at the moment it looks like i won't be able to catch this fantastic show with dmb/ phish/gsw in my home town but i hope everyone has a great time. just the concept of *any* of the members of the band joining the other band is frightening. absolutely crazy. also, after reading the latest phish newsletter of a couple days ago, i would assume that no taping would be allowed because lexington isn't on the list of tapers shows? or will there just not be a taping section? god, i'd hate to actually miss the show and then not be able to get a tape of it, too.... grumble, grumble. take care, reid -SPICE@DICKINSON.EDU

Subject: Boyd Lookalike
A few weeks ago I was in Baltimore visiting a friend and we were
just sitting around watching the news when all of a sudden I saw Boyd on
tv or what I thought was Boyd. You wouldn't believe the resemblance.
He was wearing glasses very similar to Boyd's and he was wearing a
cowboy hat as well. The fellow's name was Stan Sanders (Saunders) and
he's a field reporter for the Baltimore ABC affiliate. You netters in
the area should check it out, you won't believe it.
Next topic, there hasn't been much discussion on this but I know
I for one still cannot get over that Dave is opening for Phish. Doesn't
this blow anyone else's gourd? How many people open for Phish regardless
of whether or not its a local thing? Not many.
Last but not least I'd like to comment on ticket prices. Ticket prices
are really skyrocketing. I heard it was nine bucks at Trax last week, eight
if you're legal. This seems to be getting way out of hand especially
when you consider that for an additional $7 one can see Phish as well
granted Dave will not be playing 2+ hrs. Hopefully this will be the end of
the hikes at least for now. If not we could have another Big Head Todd on
our hands. At least BHT has an album out on a major label though not that
this is an indicator of talent or anything though.

Subject: Those damn ticket prices
I don't mean to shock anyone here. But both the band and the venue are in control over ticket prices. As are the laws of supply and demand. The prices for a Phish show in the NE are goona be higher for a number of reasons. 1) Phish can get the money in the NE 2) The bigger the venue, the more in production and other overhead it costs to get the show off, so aside from the band gettign paid a lot, the venue has to shell out a lot to pay people to work. Now if these places thought no one would go, they wouldn't book the bands because they would be losing a ton of money on the show. If none of these places were willing to pay the band for shows, the band would likely pay for less. This happens in areas where they are less popular. ie if Phish went to Mexico right now there is a good chance that they could not fill a place the size of the Centrum. If DMB were to go out and play in N Dakota (not meant as a flame) ticket prices would probably be very low and the band wouldn't make much money off it, probably not much more than enough to survive. The venues have to figure out some line where a rise in tickt price will not take away too much of the audience. Quite obviously down at Trax they are not having to drag people in off the street. They can't stay in business taking losses. DMB costs more with their rise in popularity and the bars have to offset that rise in cost. Be happy that you can see them every week still (or however often it is that they play down there.) My guess is that it won't be long before you will be complaining that you can only see them once in a month or less. And ticket prices will likely be higher then too.

Reid -- I would send your song to the band's management and put it attention to Dave. I bet Dave would get a real kick out of that and who knows, if he likes it, maybe he would play it at one of his acoustic shows. Here's the address: Red Light Management, The Dave Matthews Band, P.O. Box 1911, Charlottesville, VA 22903. And about the Lexington and W-S Dave/Phish shows. I'm sure there will be plenty of tapers. As far as I know the reason some shows have tapers tickets is because those venues are restricted seating. For the general admission shows (including Lex and W-S) anyone can tape. My friend at UVa got four tix yesterday for me and three friends for the Lex show. (Planning on roadtripping from Chicago to see Dave at these two incredible shows -- 14 hrs to see Dave -- can anyone top this?! Well, ok, Phish added a little incentive) Anyway my friend said he got to Plan 9 20 minutes after the tickets went on sale and he bought the last few of the 300 tickets they were originally alotted. Anyone know how many this seldom-used (or maybe never-used) venue will hold and will it be inside or outside. I've heard there will be camping. Later Bob

so in all honesty, i feel like i'm seeing dave for free. he _is_
only the opening band, no matter how high a pedestal we have him
on. (but wait, i think i _am_ getting into this show for free....;)

why he has such a grin on his face during granny as well. granny is
a jammin' tune, but it ranks right down there with tr. whereas, i'm
one of the few people i know that is extremely fond of help myself, and
jane's.
now that i think about it, one of the most jammed out, improvised songs
dmb does, #36, sits right before granny in my fav tunes spectrum.

personally i don't think $16 is that bad for phish AND dmb. the flynn
theatre show which rick is talking about cost $20 alone.

I disliked it for a year, but now I love it. It peaks really well, I think
because of Carter's cymbals during "he and the queen..." Learn to love it.
Does anybody going to Phish Winst-salem, Atlanta, or Charlotte, have any room
in there car?
Also, for those who have not seen Everything (e:) go see them! And for those
who have seen them, but didn't like it, try marijuana helps greatly (they had
a petition to sign to put them in the Hemp 100, and they belong there.) They
are highly underrated. They jam just as hard as virtually anyone out there
(minus Phish).

As Dave P. once said at a show at trax, "i am loving life" to see music that is so much of a part of the musician's life, to know that they are lov'n it up there, that makes the show mean so much from the standpoint of a bond between musicians and audience... (if you don't know what i mean read, _Jazz_ by Toni dearest) anyhow, not that dave, leroi, and staphan aren't like this--they are-- i'd have to say that True Reflections works as expression and there is no point in making statements like Granny and TR are commercial songs b/c that reflects a lack of apprecation for what music means _beneath the surface_ of the sounds--think about it b/4 responding... read the prologue to Invisible Man i gotta go...

It's been a slow day. did anyone from C-ville by chance happen to keep the C-ville Review two part article that they wrote about DMB over the summer. Mine were thrown away, I just thought that they would be interresting to have.

I was just talking to my friend Kenny and we were wondering how long the band will be around, jammin and lovin life? Are they gonna be around for much longer? 2 years? 3 years? 10 years? Just interested in your prophesies. all of yours truly, Jamie Cogbill "for life is short and sweet for certain"
