List Of Longest Live Dave Matthews Band Songs

Dave Matthews Band tours have taken place since 1991, when the band debuted as a small rock band in Charlottesville, Virginia. Since then, Dave Matthews Band has become internationally known, performing sold out shows at stadiums and large venues throughout the world. In addition to playing in the United States, the band has also performed in such countries as Canada, Australia, Germany, The Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Italy, United Kingdom, Switzerland, and France. The band has held an extensive summer tour every year since 1992, frequently featuring guests to join them on stage and jam out their songs. Some of the bands most popular guests include Tim Reynolds, and Béla Fleck. After performing on two tracks on Before These Crowded Streets, keyboardist Butch Taylor made his live debut with the band on June 6, 1998. He was featured as a guest during many shows between 1998 and 2000. Beginning in 2001 he became a "permanent" guest of the band, and performed almost every song at every show until his departure in 2008.

In addition to the annual summer tours, the band has also held tours during the spring, fall, and early winter seasons. Late winter months (January - March) are often reserved for acoustic shows by Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, or solo acoustic shows featuring Matthews himself.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, longest, live, matthews, band and/or songs:

    Love’s boat has been shattered against the life of everyday. You and I are quits, and it’s useless to draw up a list of mutual hurts, sorrows, and pains.
    Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)

    Love’s boat has been shattered against the life of everyday. You and I are quits, and it’s useless to draw up a list of mutual hurts, sorrows, and pains.
    Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)

    The ensuing year will be the longest of my life, and the last of such hateful labours. The next we will sow our cabbages together.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    I am ... willing to admit that some people might live there for years, or even a lifetime, so protected that they never sense the sweet stench of corruption that is all around them—the keen, thin scent of decay that pervades everything and accuses with a terrible accusation the superficial youthfulness, the abounding undergraduate noise, that fills those ancient buildings.
    Thomas Merton (1915–1968)

    I was supposed to retire when I was seventy-two years old, but I was seventy-seven when I retired. On my seventy-sixth birthday a lady had triplets. It was quite a birthday present.
    —Josephine Riley Matthews (b. 1897)

    What passes for identity in America is a series of myths about one’s heroic ancestors. It’s astounding to me, for example, that so many people really seem to believe that the country was founded by a band of heroes who wanted to be free. That happens not to be true. What happened was that some people left Europe because they couldn’t stay there any longer and had to go someplace else to make it. They were hungry, they were poor, they were convicts.
    James Baldwin (1924–1987)

    O women, kneeling by your altar-rails long hence,
    When songs I wove for my beloved hide the prayer,
    And smoke from this dead heart drifts through the violet air
    And covers away the smoke of myrrh and frankincense;
    Bend down and pray for all that sin I wove in song....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
