YES! Prospectiverushee that was a GREAT question all day I was thinking, what do the albums have in common--it drove me NUTS! ha ha

I'll post another trivia in a bit...

Coffeemug, my 10 year college reunion is this year, so Mr. Matthews is only 2 years older than my old self.

ha ha I think my Napster files are ok as they are all from Live shows/Demo tapes and DMB allows taping of their shows... let me know if you want to check them out, i'm in Los Angeles and generally connect to napster on my office's T-1...

Whew. My brain STILL hurts from coming up with that trivia answer. ha ha

wow..too too much info to read...but seems to be some hardcore dave fans here....
My favorite song would have to be the original of satelite...when it was called after her...and the words were totaly different..i hear it was about his first love or something like that...great song..
then would be Dream I Killed God<---this song is the S(#*!
Two step is also great..live at red rocks version is the best imo.

NEW TRIVIA QUESTION:

WHO is the #36 about and what is their significance to Dave?

YES! this is the BEST version of it, Boyd's intro is so mezmerizing in its length and then when the rest of it kicks in...ooo shivers!

Sheesh! I leave work, come back the next day and there are TWENTY more posts on this thread! This is the fastest growing thread. It's hilaroius. I love it!!!

I have downloaded live versions of two step that are even better. Both have a salsa thing goin' on in there. One version I have is 12 minutes long. It's the best version I've ever heard. Even better than the RedRocks version, which is, of course, amazing.

I knew the answer to that annoying trivia question darned it

!!! Didn't get a chance to answer

. oh well. I can't remember the answer to the #36 question. I used to know it. I did! I swear!!!

Wow! you guys do have a wild thread going here! I just spent time catching up and even though it statred about 50 messages ago, I had to share my "Say Goodbye" Story, too.

One summer I had a boyfriend that joined the navy and we were going to try to stay together...but I was working with this guy that I just salivated over! I would drive to work every morning listening to that song on a tape over and over and over! I wanted to just go up and say the words to him. Well, I couldn't resist! I ended up breaking it off with the boyfriend and getting together with this guy. It's been over 4 years now! I told him about how I always thought of him with that song and even though our story diverged from the original, we still call it our song (in private).

We do have quite the thread going here don't we

?

Now I feel like a stick in the mud for not sharing my 'say goodbye' story. So I will give the abridged version so as to not have to deal with the whole version.

In a nutshell, my 'say good-bye' guy, was and ex-boyfriend. We were just friends at this point and had no one else, so....yah.
one of those things i kinda wish i could go back and change. Talk about 'seemed like a good idea at the time!'.
(people who don't know what say goodbye is about will most likely have figured it out now by our posts huh? lol).

I'm happy to say I also have a "Crush" guy. So in light of the 'say goodbye' story, i'll share this one too.

Crush was my favorite song off of the last disk. And when boyfriend and i started seeing eachother, he asked me who my favorite musician is and what my favorite song was. So naturally, I said DMB, and Crush (which was just begining to take on new meaning for me

). He downloaded the song and listened to it over and over. He said it gave him insight into the kind of person I was. And he said he loved the song. I'd like to think that that song helped influence the fact that we've now been together for a year and a half

Awww, Leslie, that is such a nice story. I got all teary-eyed just reading about it.

Welcome to the new people to our thread..coffemug,SuperXO,and damasa. You all are each invited to share how yougot interested in DMB in the first place

I have always loved DMB since Ants Marching. but, I used to get them confused with Blues Traveler at first. I guess they just got popular at the same time. But, I remember when Crash first came out, i did not like Say Goodbye. I was like, "How horrible! This song is all about cheating!" I guess you see it from a different perspective when you are in the same position

I have seen him in concert twice. Once at my school which was great cuz it was a small setting. And once at a huge place where we were lucky they had video screens to see them on stage!

My boyfriend has learned a lot of his songs because he plays guitar. I love it when he plays them! He says he thinks Dave must be really talented to play the song and sing at the same time because sometimes the two are really out of sync (i.e. it's like rubbing your belly and patting your head). but, dave pulls it off well. as for my boyfriend...well, he does the playing, I do the singing!

It's not really ABOUT cheating. It's just about, well, to be blunt, sleeping with a friend, platonically, and then going back to just being buddies the next day.
A place many people have been i do dare say

amycat412 · #86 03-21-2001, 05:40 PM

How about "Lover Lay Down"

Damn that song has MEANING for me...

OH! And a radio station here in L.A. had an event this morning --Breakfast with Dave--just Dave. his guitar, scrambled eggs and bagels and 100 fans--but try as I might I did not win tix. So. Its always at a super secret location and I turn on the radio this morning and find that HE is TWO BLOCKS from me. I can stand on my balcony and see the bldg he was in. Talk about TORTURE!!

damasa · #87 03-21-2001, 08:18 PM

I got into dave...hmmm...trying to remember here....some years ago...i had broken up with my first love

and i was depressing hardcore, so one of my friends who was really big into dmb, which i had heard of, but didn't listen to religiously, gives me a copy of two step...i listened to it and i was like..this is my song, cheered me up..and i kept it on repeat for like a week, then i just started buying albums, bootlegs, and imports, anything i could get my hands on, and i love seeing him in concert...this thearter up here..in wiscowsin, alpine valley, is the SHIT!!! We go to get sloshed and then we just get to hear dmb jam for hours! it's the greatest!!!

Well, maybe it's not ABOUT cheating, but they are cheating on their significant others...that's the part I fixated on the time because I was in a steady relationship and I wouldn't have liked ot be the one cheated on...even if they went back to being platonic!

Amy, you should have done a Mission Impossible and gone into that building through the ceiling!

No kidding. I'm suprised she didn't. I'm begining to think that she doesn't love Dave as much as she says she does

OK Daveheads, Friday, go to www.kroq.com they will be playing highlights from their "Breakfast with Dave" -- I heard it was hysterical!
