Dave Matthews Band

if only there were such a place...

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

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.

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."

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.

why he is so bad and hated?

i understand now...all too well.

(btw was that thread deleted or something)

thank god no Dave Matthews Band : Name Your Reasons Why They Are So Bad & Hated.

Who is thees Dave Mathhews Persons?

"and muttering and wooping all these bizarre sounding things out of its mouthhole...."
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

don't put arthur f'n russell in the same category as angry sweaty meat orb head

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 :-(

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..

We Interviewed the Wrong Dave Matthews but Now We Know What a Paralegal Does

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.
