I saw John Bonham, Neil Peart. Neither of them made me move as much as Carter and the Dave Matthews Band did. Of course, the other two you just sat there in awe lol
Carter Beauford, the drummer, is considered the best of the best, top drummer. And of course Boyd Tinsley, the violinist, is legendary. Take a listen to the studio version of this song, it's real tight and the way it all flows and blends and the amazing sounds, it's one of my favorite all time songs. Guaranteed to put anyone in a good mood.
Gotta love that improvised 3 minute intro! Dave Matthews Band live is always a celebration of the musical experience! There's obvious reasons why they are one of the perennial and consistent Top 10 touring bands in the US for the last 20 years. Seeing them jamming on stage... doesn't get much better.
Brilliant live band, all 8 times I've seen them. Easily the tightest live band I've ever seen. The standout show for me was 2001 in Dallas at Texas Stadium (openers were Angelique Kidjo and Wyclef, who did a cover of Wish You Were Here) - Roof open, 95 degrees, 100% humidity. When they took the stage, Dave was completely dry. They played 2.5 hours straight, no breaks. By the end the only thing dry on Dave was literally his pant cuffs/bottom hem. RIP Leroi Moore.
These boys play for the love of playing. The respect and friendship is immense, and I always say that I think they forget that there's even an audience there sometimes lol but it's not in a bad way at all, it's part of what makes DMB who they are. Watching them play live is the closest I'll ever get to heaven.
Dave Matthews live is so much fun. They’re jamming the whole time, and the crowd fully participates. Incredible musicians. Carter’s drumming is amazing, as is everyone else. Ants Marching always the highlight of their shows.
Dude, ive been playing ANTS for years. Since, like ‘95…and i STILL struggle, and nevermind Stone, grace is gone and minarets. I have, though, on more than one occasion… less than 2 hands worth, made it though Warehouse… 😂😂😂flat out, dude’s got amazing skills🤙🏻
@@johnaustin3187 In HS I hated them, if my friends were around, but I owned Under The Table And Dreaming and bumped it...When I was alone. But I have been an unabashed fan for a long time now. As soon as I tried to learn Crash Into You to impress my girl, I decided I should aim a little lower. Playing them is hard enough but singing them AND playing them is different, good luck.
he got me into the guitar 24 years ago. got tired of c g f c blah... but figuring out stone, recently, warehouse, was the nuts back then. and yes, singing. the other level. odd timings. dreaming tree and you never know are tops for me.
The DMB (and his solo work) offer a deep well. And as a side note, you should check out various tracks from the concert film ‘Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds at Radio City Music Hall’. It’s just him and his guitarist on two acoustic guitars and a grand piano, and it’s awesome. It’s stripped down music with passion. But there’s so much to dig into.
Play that song so many times on MTV when I was young. I grew to despise it. sounds good now. After all these years, especially live .good stuff, God bless. Thanks fellows
Dave is INDEED playing with Hall of Famers. He hand selected them while bartending in Charlottesville, NC. He admits to selecting them to exploit them for their magical talents. 30+ shows for me. I absolutely love the diversity of this band- race, style, and creativity. Best ever.
“Rapunzel” is the song, and violin performance, that got me hooked. I knew of Dave Matthews but wasn’t a big fan early on (they drew the stoner crowd at college, which wasn’t my crowd). I was given tickets to a show later on, and that song in particular blew me away. (No pun intended 😏)
This is from their debut album, Under the Table and Dreaming. For me, their first 4 or 5 albums are just ridiculous, truly amazing music. Frankly don't care as much for their later albums, especially after the first Glen Ballard produced one changed their styles and structure to a more "radio friendly" stuff, but they still come out with some good newer stuff overall, just not as good as those first 5 albums.
I love it when I see these old school DMB videos. It’s crazy how the band has transformed. No more Boyd and the violen or Butch on the keys and we can’t forget LeRoi, RIP.
"Dave Matthews Band - #41 w/ The Flecktones - 4/20/02 - Ottawa - [32min Version]" Yes they riff this song out to 32 minutes, Part because they had the Flecktones up as well and I think everyone in both bands had a solo. Their "Jimi Thing" performance in Central park is pretty fantastic too. 13+ minutes of riffs. Carter Beauford the Drummer you can just see the joy in this performance.
Best concert atmosphere you could hope for. And Dave is one of the nicest people to talk with. A band based on generosity and building on each other’s strengths… and tons of humour.
La and Che!!!! There you go again! My (late) son's name was David Matthew, and of course we listened to Dave Matthews Band all the time during his illness. You picked a great live one to review today. Thanks so much! God bless you both! ....May I suggest the Listener Supported live album...full of deep cuts!
Allison, I have the listener supported cd's, fantastic. And of course this song was my favorite of this breakout album. Very sorry for your loss. I'm sure he was up there and right next to you as you watched this. 😇
Really enjoyed this reaction. Listened to this gem 1,000 times, have seen the band live many times; but listening to it with the both of you brought the feeling I had when first listening to it so long ago! "People in every direction...no words exchanged, there's no time to exchange them.. all the little ants are marching, black and red antennae waving....and we all do it the same wayyyy!"
That drummer is elite elite at that technical groove style!! Carter Beauford He goes around North America doing drum clinics as a teacher... endorsed by Yamaha drums and some stick company (i forget which one)
Marshall Tucker man, they hooked up with Charlie Daniels giving my feather and her aunt brother went crazy. A song's called 24 hours. I was doing it on the stage, brother rotten proud of you twenty four hours
Marshall Tucker band I try Marshall Tucker band say hello. Thanks out a song code in my own way. The song is in my own way. It's marshall tucker band they got charlie daniels😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Marshall Tucker band. Question mark that's right a marshall talk about I do a song called virginia lock the state to state of virginia marshall duckers got a song Brother entertain you entertain gifts her entertainment gives her
This was the best reaction I have seen you guys do yet. Thoroughly enjoyed watching the two of you. One introducing the music to the other. Can’t wait to hear some more Dave Matthews! They have such a deep rabbit hole to go through.
I'm so glad ya'll got around to this one, I'm a big fan of the Dave Mathews Band. This song "Ants Marching" is from their debut album and is one of the bands best known songs. However, the band has a pretty deep discography. Here's another live performance, if interested. "Dave Mathews Band - The Dreaming Tree (Live at Piedmont Park)" this song I've suggested is from their album called "Before These Crowded Streets" released in 1998. (IMO) this band has been hugely successful and definitely overlooked here on RU-vid. The Dave Mathews Band has released ten studio albums, eighty-five live albums, three compilation albums, eight video albums, two extended plays, thirty-six singles (including one as a featured artist) and twenty-one music videos...DMB has sold over 33 million albums in the USA. I really enjoyed jamming with you fellas' thanks so much for sharing. peace out~
It was perfect timing with the right people at the right time in the right place in Virginia that formed this band. My favorite band ever. I just learned that DMB's debut album was certified 6x platinum.
Leight weight mosh pit! Priceless. Dave Matthews Band are pretty much genius musicians. Incredible & so gifted with their magic making. Thank you for sharing this one. Never without love for this band. Quite something when you see them live. Keep enjoying.
Love you guys. I hope I can convince you to check out Robert Cray Band. Great voice, great guitar & great stories told with the lyrics. Try and see what you think of "Right Next Door" & " The forecast calls for pain"
I love watching all these shows evaluating/listening to DMB. I'd like to know if you guys (@AirplayBeats) at a younger age would have NEVER tried to hear a song? I was one of those guys. Songs took so long to start but then began to appreciate it more in late 20s than I did in my early 20s. Then just enjoyed live music like this and hearing all the things you talk about this group.
Thanks for finally getting to DMB. I knew this would be up your alley. DMB is great on record, but is a differnt beast live. You need to check them out when they come your way. La as a drummer you wont be able to take your eye off Carter Beauford. The dude is incredible and may be the best living drummer. Please check out Grey Street live Central Park. If fact do that whole concert and you wont be disappointed.
You guys are a vibe..... I came here for the Dave Matthews Band reaction, but I'm subscribing because of you two and your camera presence\chemistry. - from a man from all the way over in Australia 'bout to go binge the s@#t out of your channel.
Have you guys ever listened to ELO (Electric Light Orchestra)? Rocking strings are strong in that one. They were one of the biggest bands of the 70s. Mr. Blue Sky, Evil Woman, Do YA are popular songs.
I was probably at that show, been to many, and they are a huge event, a bunch of amazing musicians, putting on a great show, which turns out to be a great time !
Its A Beautiful Day was a late 60s folk / psychedelic band the was built around Electric violins. Their song White Bird got a decent amount of airplay in the day
Dave and his band are incredible!! A great video to react to is Dave and the band with Warren Haynes play Cortez the Killer! Warren is insanely good in the video!!
Now that you're getting into some Dave Matthews, there's two videos you need to check out. They did a cover of Cortez the killer live in Central Park with special guest Warren Haynes. Then check out a later live version of Whipping Post by the Allman Brothers, with Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes. Derek Trucks is the nephew of Butch Trucks, one of the drummers from the Allman Bros.
I saw Dave Matthews Band for the first time in Vegas in 1995. They opened 3 shows for The Grateful Dead. It was the first time I ever saw an electric violin and they blew me away, they were sooo much fun!!!👍👍👌👌✌✌😁😁
Before Dave Matthews there was a band in Richmond called "Secrets" and some of them, moved to Dave Matthews in Charlottesville, most notably, the drummer. Here is one of their best songs - Secrets - After Hours - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qguOPhYBI_U.html Check out the bass player Keith Horne on that one.
Not only do they still tour, but they are known as one of the best live bands you can ever see. RIP Leroi 😢 everyone of them is the top of their instrumental class. Dave with time Reynolds is also incredible beyond words have fun yall
Yay! They are really good live. Virginia in the Rain is one of my favorite songs of his. For those with daughters....or sons for that matter...kids in general, will relate to this song. Lovely song. And the drums kill it!
I’ve been fortunate to see them live several times and they really put on a show. He usually performs over Memorial Day weekend in the Gorge Amphitheater in George, WA. ❤❤❤
This was in 2007, a benefit concert to raise money for Piedmont Park in Atlanta. The live show was released on CD in 2007 as well, "Live at Piedmont Park". The Allman Brothers were there too. More than 80, 000 in attendance. One of the best concerts I have ever been to! So glad you chose a live version of this song! Carter Beauford 🔥
My last weekend in Cali. Saw them 3 times in one weekend. Seen them 8 times Live. Your in the Warehouse now guys!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️
GREAT song by the band of the 90s…and beyond! Lots of pool and beer to DMB on the box….what a talented bunch of musicians! Gotta dig their vinyl out now…thanks fellas! Loved the reaction esp La! I enjoyed it all!
Great to see how much you guys loved live DMB. They were my favorite band for many years. I've seen them live 35ish times (lost count sometime after 30). This performance is a great representation of what their shows are like. That is very much the vibe for most, if not all of the 3 hours they are playing. I'd watch any reaction videos you do for these guys.
if you never listen or follow DMB, do yourselves a favor and always listen to their live versions of each song and at least once in your life go to a concert. They JAM!!!
@airplaybeats. Gentlemen, yours is about the third reaction vid…prolly closer to the 5th😂cuz its easy to forget the number of times and versions of this song live ive watched, both on youtube AND at the shows, but no matter how many ive watched, y’ALL have this same reaction! Just amazed, excited, and truly appreciative of the immense talent these guys brought/bring to the world of music. Sadly, LeRoi the horn player has passed, and Boyd, the violinist is no longer with the band. Still, this will always be a band best seen live. Their energy is a better high than damn near any drug ive ever done. Thanks again for recognizing DMB’s awesomness!
