you've got to be shittin me. another thread.

Chris V. (Chris V), Friday, 18 July 2003 13:01 (twenty years ago) link

Chris, I think the proper title was:
"You've Got to Be Shittin' Me: Dave Matthews Sings Irish Ballads"

That would be the other Dave wouldn't it.

Chris V. (Chris V), Friday, 18 July 2003 13:05 (twenty years ago) link

excellent -- i think that DMB songs would be KILLER as drunken irish ballads.

"whaaaaaat would you shay..*hic* oh fuck i shit meself again..."

Wow is he looking good in that photo.

Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Friday, 18 July 2003 13:52 (twenty years ago) link

ooo! thread idea! find the worst photo of shane or any musician that you can find! it'll be friday fun for all!

Kingfish (Kingfish), Friday, 18 July 2003 13:55 (twenty years ago) link

Perhaps we should exclude Shane since it would be no contest. The man has some really bad photos of him floating the net the poor bastard.

Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Friday, 18 July 2003 13:58 (twenty years ago) link

OK - I'm not sure if it's the foreground that makes him look so bad, or what...

dude, the guy in the background is what makes it so classic!

he's thinking:
"hurr hurr! look what this goony-looking fuck is wearing 'round his neck! it's the jewel from 'Rambo II: First Blood!'"

Isn't anybody actually going to answer this question? I'm for banging on DMB as much as the next ILXor, but this was a seemingly legit question that I'm sure someone knows the answer to . . .

J (Jay), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:03 (twenty years ago) link

I have no idea what the answer is, sorry (hence my silence).

Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:08 (twenty years ago) link

maybe something with the Chieftans?

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:09 (twenty years ago) link

Could be SOTW too.

Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:13 (twenty years ago) link

gee--if only this amazing interweb had a place where you could go to find out about what records an artist has released, what they sound like, and what people think of them.

if only there were such a place...

Kingfish (Kingfish), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:15 (twenty years ago) link

gee, would rather go to someplace like AMG, where all you get is lots of info or here, where all you get is insulted?

Personally, I'll take insults over info any day, but hey, that's just me. I'm a writer.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:17 (twenty years ago) link

heaven forbid you use one of the other two threads running on the group either.

Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:30 (twenty years ago) link

LEt me apologize on behalf of ILM, Diana. The album you seek is a bootleg entitled Fremme Neppa Venette, Coconuts usually has a few copies but you have to ask.

Aaron A., Friday, 18 July 2003 14:36 (twenty years ago) link

right then. now that that's taken care of, we can get back to discussing more important things.

for example, this new orange Mountain Dew tastes like what happens when you dip a orange push-up pop into the sugar bowl. thank god they're discontinuing it after the summer.

Kingfish (Kingfish), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:41 (twenty years ago) link

Oooh, I am pained.

J (Jay), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:42 (twenty years ago) link

heaven forbid you use one of the other two threads running on the group either.

Yes, because the first places I'd turn for serious, non-hostile discussion of Dave Matthews would be threads titled "Okay...name 10 bands that the Dave Matthews Band is better than." and "Dave Matthews Band : Name Your Reasons Why They Are So Bad & Hated."

Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 18 July 2003 14:43 (twenty years ago) link

Well, a DMB fan site might be a better choice though .. although, Diana, we're glad you're here. What else do you listen to?

dave225 (Dave225), Friday, 18 July 2003 15:53 (twenty years ago) link

I'd think those other two might clue you in that there isnt much nonhostile discussion of Dave Matthews and I'd check else where.

eleven months pass...
five years pass...

i'm watching a dave matthews concert on MHD....

this shit is harrowing....goddamn this guy has the biggest collection of weird vocal and facial tics...my god i can't stand it but i can't look away his big giant twitching white pie face sweating and muttering and wooping all these bizarre sounding things out of its mouthhole....

man really...warren haynes (sp?) is doing a bunch of sub allman shit all over "what would you say?"

dave talks in a totally weird sorta quasi southern accent between songs, it's really weird it's not quite southern...but he's from south africa right? anyway it's def not south african, like he made up his own accent.

i mean you wanna give these guys a chance i guess but god this shit just fucking sucks shit...it's got the worst parts of jam bands but it's not even really druggie or going out on any kind of ledge, even phish has their moments of throwing down something pretty hard or weird or funky or whatever....

talent musicians are the worst IMO

god i wish u guyses could hear this dude right now....i don't even know what the fuck he just did vocally it was like peter gabriel and al johnson from us maple raping a retarded moose or something fuckin a what a bizarre human being

he makes these "angry" faces that freak me out, i think dave matthews is a sociopath.

I hate to bring this up but I watched Wild Combinatiom: A Portrait of Arthur Russell last night

I like Arthur Russell and Dave Matthews but different strokes for different folks you know

five years pass...

so al i right ln thinking these guys are p much a contemproray US Genesis who never registered in the UK?
my partner has a soft spot for them after seeing them live while travelling in her 20s and wants to see their UK show. We watched a few live Youtubes and you know what, it wasn't half as terrible or bland as I'd expected it to be from the bleating I hear from the US contingent on ilm and elsewhere.
still, tickets are £80 fuckin quid :-(

I, (dog latin), Sunday, 22 February 2015 11:40 (nine years ago) link

Genesis would be a Very British comparison that makes sense only insofar as Peter Gabriel is interested in South African music, which didn't happen until later, no?

no analogue comes to mind, because I don't think there is one, musically or sociologically. they're more like Chris Martin and Savuka, though that has nothing to do with the traditional American music that very few British bands do, and would probably be better than DMB..

A friend of mine has a friend who played some benefit with Dave Matthews. Apparently, no surprise, he's a nice enough guy, but the story I heard was that he was hanging backstage talking in a regular voice like a normal person, and then hit the stage and bam! Muppet voice.
