what's with this "subliminal message crap." i subscribed to this net
to read about absolutely nothing but the dave matthews band and your
intruding on my karma. when i see somebody trying to have fun it really
erks me, so cut it out.
by the way, i think rhyme & reason is a shoe-in, and so is #34.

does anyone know about rumors of Tim Reynolds joining the band permanently? I have heard from two goods sources (friends of Coran) that he is. Also, does anyone know if Warren Heynes will be questing on the new album. The versions of Watchtower and Dancing Nancies with Heynes are the most amazing music that I have ever heard. Finally, if any of you have the tapes from the album release parties at Trax, what is that new song on there

if there is any one song dave matthews has ever written that i _don't_
want to see on a cd it would definitely _have_ to be #36. it's the only
song he has left that really shows true stage diversity and creativity.
i was pissed when he botched (imho) halloween on the recently ep. if he
standardizes 36 by putting one stock version on a comercially available
(and nationally advertised) cd, the i'll hang clare from her shoelaces.
it's almost sickening to think of it.

while sojourning in colonial heights last week i spent many useless hours
reading many useless things (such as parade, tv guide, etc) and when i
stumbled on the cheers and jeers section i found something traumatically
funny.
turns out the bbc has decided to tape sex from the inside. they mounted
those mini-surgical cameras that they use to tape heart valves in action,
and told the pioneers of pornography to have at it 3 times a day for 3
weeks.
and as i just asked phish.net:
what would you need of 63 different takes of something like this?
btw, it got a cheer.

Subject: Re: FREE DAVE SHOW
There appears to be some confusion about the Seattle show, so let me clear things up: The reality is there are two shows in Seattle, an early show and a late show. The early show is an industry event--BMG, RCA's parent company, as well as of Arista and Private Music, is having a party (actually a marketing conference), and they asked DMB to play a show in order to introduce them to the company. That is the show that will be a private-for-industry-only affair, with very few tickets available to the public. Because of the number of people in the northwest who expressed an interest in seeing the band, it was decided to add a second show--what has become known on the net as the FREE SHOW. This show is in fact free o'charge :) It will be at the same venue (the Backstage) in the same city (Seattle) on the same day (Sunday the 17th)...only difference is it will be a late show, i.e. midnight. So tell all your friends in the pacific northwest that DMB will be in their area on Sunday the 17th for a free show at midninght at the Backstage and they are all invited to come! Any questions, call the hotline or the office. Peace, CJS

Okay, so you thought it was weird to hear Tripping Billies on Prauge radio... how bout this? My girlfriend also just returned from a week long trip in Europe. She spent her last week in the Czech Rep. and on one of her last nights there she had a back pack stolen at a restaurant. (Actually, she left it, then went back 10 min. later and the waitress said that she never saw it) Anyway, in the aforementioned pack was a taped copy of her Remember 2 Things CD for her walkman (enter the Twilight Zone theme - Ta na na na...) I doubt that this copy found its way to the broadcast booth... but just how well are Bama Rags records distributed in Europe???? Just some thoughts, BTW - does anyone have the lyrics file, cause I know I'm singing Jimi Thing wrong when I say: "If you could keep me floating, Just for a while, Till I get to the end of this ?TUNNEL CALLED MOMMY??" tunnel = birth canal ??

uh, two words: non sequitor
i meant to say guitar. dave doesn't play keyboard, duh. but you all
knew that, right?
anyway, thought i might take this oppurtunity to establish a practice
rather widespread on our parental net (aka: phish.net): dream sharing.
i'm riding my bike through southern petersburg, va (about the size of
any mountainous college town, ie: h-burg, charlottesville, blacksburg)
and come upon this intersection where 2 rodes intersect route 1 from
the same side (making it a five way intersection) and right there under
the stoplight in the southbound lanes of route one is the reverend dean
caulfield setting up stage (the same stage i unwillingly put together
at last spring's wsp, dmb show) and lo and behold, i watch a dave matthews
band performance in the middle of an urbanized route 1. nolo comprendere,
obviously. no songs in particular, just a random dream type thing.
now, there's about as much demand for dmb in petersburg, va (which is actually
drug running captial of much of the east coast) as there is for them in
little america (aka: closest manned oupost to the south pole). so what does
this mean.
also, chris sabec's last post brought this thought to mind:
is the dave matthews band going to be the latest rage of the bmg record
club?
uh oh...

Subject: Random Things
1.) I both agree and disagree with Thompson that #36 shouldn't be on the album. On his side, this song could quite possibly be standardized like most other DMB songs have slowly become. On the other hand, I'm absolutely in love with this song, and want every version ever, and a CD version is always nice. This is one of the ways I love Phish... they can record a song, and it may be the definitive version and whatnot, but live, they'll jam like demons and sometimes take songs places that you never would have dreamed from the CD (Tweezer, etc.) 2.) I notice two swings on DMB musicianship: From '92 --> mid '93. Suddenly they're great. I have to admit, from the '92 tapes I have, they don't sound like anything special. Granted, they were still pretty new (their first show was what, April '91 or somewherethereabouts?), but they were just a pretty good band with song really good songs. Then, from '93 --> early '94 (namebly georgia theater). What happened?? They're suddenly the type of band I flip burgers for just to scrounge up an extra .50 cents to hear "Two Step" on the jukebox again. Wait... what the hell am I talking about? 3.) I want everyone to email Clare at least once a day. It's like that apple thing that keeps doctors away. Clare just keeps sanity away. 4.) See you ALL (?) on July 28th. Ah ha! Finally on my turf. Irving Plaza is about 9 blocks from my house. Ha! Virginia can kiss my... aw, forget it. I look forward to watching lots of people wander around NYC wondering where the hell this Irving Plaza place is. I've already helped out one guy on how to find the place. If anyone else needs help, just email me telling me how you're coming (car, train, walking from Virginia), and I'll try and help any way I can.

So I just got my copy of the newsletter yesterday(quite a bit of lag time between the east and here???) Anyway, if I only owned a private jet I would skip on over to Brown's Island for the pairing of my two current favorite bands (soulhat and DMB for those of us who rarely read subject lines). But alas, Jason has no private jet (nor the funds to rent a seat on one of those big silver thangs that go whooom and can pretend its a bird ---) So the only hope for Jason is to find someone who is planning on going to the show, then send him/her gifts, flowers, first born child, and other things to persuade the party who is planning to attend the event in question to record the afformentioned parties (that is parties named in said document to be the Dave M. Band and soulhat) and to send me a copy of such recordings. (my mid-morning attempt at legal-eze). I know the show is a long way off, but I just can't control my excitement. Seriously, I would be willing to try a work a trade form my currently meager collection - or send blank tapes or DATs for you to use. Anyway, sorry to grovel before lunch, and check out soulhat if you have the chance (their new album is "good to be gone" and I have been hearing an acoustic song called "goldmine" on the radio that is from some acoustic EP that I think is promo-only right now...)

get your dave matthews band dates at your local kroger, as well as
you widespread panic coconuts and phish mangoes. look in your local

today's anecdote:
i work for my illustrious campus doing nothing but driving around
all day in an '87 ford ranger with no a/c and no fm. therefore,
we're stuck with that outdated format known as "amplitude modulation."
(has anyone here actually taken the time to turn their radio around
for better reception of an am station, anyway?) as we all know, the
only thing on am is religious music, oldies, and wrva-richmond, and i
opted for oldies. the end result? i heard the original me & julio
yesterday. i like dave's better. he won't play it because he says
it doesn't do s&g justice. granted, s&g wrote the song, but i really
don't think they do themselves justice on it.
let's boycott clare until dave decides to play it again. eh?
thank you for your time, and if you don't mind, would you please
complete the following survey for a free concert by dmb in seattle,
wa. (you provide the transportation.)
what does anyone think of the new fruitopia commercials?
what does anyone think of discovery channel contests that make you
take stupid surveys?
how many people think the gay bees'r cool?
