You know.. the years of dedication and practice to get this TIGHT.. just blows me away how tight they are. Thing is, very often you see bands where its "the job of the drummer" to practice with a metronome, as the guitars are all feeling bla bla and you often see a tight drummer and a loose band.. Im talking famous bands. But this, this intricate music where the guitar and bass are perfectly in sync, all the accents pronounced by the keys and sax, its just incredible. All the instruments are so fucking tight. They've earned this through hard work. Non-musicians wouldnt really care or notices this but fuck me.. this tightness is unreal just listen to the end bit! jeez
I’m glad somebody else understands! I tell people all the time that each version of Dave’s songs are all different because you can pick up on all the intricate sounds and notes they hit.
this is my favorite song he ever wrote, and I've been following him since 1994. This set is priceless. NOt the perfect video. I really wish he would revisit this song. Peace and love critics
Dave is the BEST! in music and in mind....he sings about life ...simple....real....his concert is so perfect and alive and amazing...never been to a better concert!!!! yes, a god and has a world of followers ~~~ =)
One of my favorite parts in any music ever is 1:58, just as he says ‘tripping billy’ and Carter, the bassist and entire band come out of that beat and into the new one.. difficult to explain but man it feels amazing!
Haha! Was this like the first Dave Mathews concert uploaded to TH-cam?? It was uploaded in 2007! Either way, I'm a lifelong fan and enjoy their older material more so I really dig this!
This covid is killing me it's taking years of concerts away from me and that's alot cause I can only go to 2 a year and dmb doesn't have that many left.
@owmyleg lol I learned this song and I can't even play the guitar... and I'm pretty sure I'll never learn to hit the drums like that, even if I knew how to play drums. Dave's guitar isn't complicated. It's actually pretty simple, but nobody ever thought of doing the things he does on guitar... that's why he's such a genius...
@Kmann2202 if you interested on Carter's beat, there is a tutorial here on youtube starring himself! and if you look closely...on some part he'll grow a third and fourth arm while playing this beat that's why he's sooo good...LoL
I recommend listening with Sennheiser PX100's (about $55 American) or equivalent to hear Carter's bass drum and Stephan's bass guitar. It makes a difference. Plenty of bass, smooth sound. Check out recommendations on Amazon, you'll see what i mean.
@owmyleg from a songwriter view i'd agree.. from a grade of technical complication i'd rather wouldn't.. like dweezilsome aleready said.. i'd like to see a battle between weckl and carter..;)
Brian is right. This is Boyd's song. He TORE IT UP in New Jersey night before last. Highlight of the entire night. (But Carter and Stefan rock that song too)
Haha, the reaction I expected from you. It's just ironic. Chill out dude. I, along with probably everyone else that watches this video, is wondering how you can have such a temper while listening to this song.
I thought tripping billies means running from the cops in south africa when they caught him doing drugs on the beach. The band is from virginia but Dave is from south africa.

Boyd Tinsley on the violin! So much passion in that statement. Love the good old days of this band!

You are spot on

As a lover of Irish music, glad to see a fiddler in this group. We love fiddlers, Boyd must have some Irish blood. They are all good musicians.
I'm Irish American. We love a band with a fiddle. Keep on rockin' Boyd.
Best Trippin Billies right here.
Gosh, I'm from C'ville...saw these guys so many times-even the early days!- and NEVER this song live.....oh please oh lord next show! :) JBirdy

That violin is like an eargasm! Oh my god, just rockin'!
Still the best version of this song, hands down!
For the people who asked where is this concert...

Awesome. Along with STP and AIC, favorites of 90s
Preciso ir embora desse BRASIL,onde musica boa é funk,sertanejo universitario!! Isso sim é musica boa,isso sim é musica de verdade!!!
You and me and all our friends!!!
All who like this video will miss DMB being on tour in 2011.
Uma obra prima.
Excelente 👏
carter beauford is bomb on this track...he just kills it! What an amazing kick-ass drummer!
2019 !!
@owmyleg lol I learned this song and I can't even play the guitar... and I'm pretty sure I'll never learn to hit the drums like that, even if I knew how to play drums. Dave's guitar isn't complicated. It's actually pretty simple, but nobody ever thought of doing the things he does on guitar... that's why he's such a genius...
totally agree...amazing ending

@Kmann2202
if you interested on Carter's beat, there is a tutorial here on youtube starring himself! and if you look closely...on some part he'll grow a third and fourth arm while playing this beat that's why he's sooo good...LoL
happy music :)
Boyd Tyinsley- Superb \m/
Epic.
R.I.P Leroi Moore!
Muito massa esse som!!!

i think im am 1 of the few ppl of my age like this bands songs
R.I.P. Leroy Brown
boyd tinsley is always the climax of the songs
@owmyleg from a songwriter view i'd agree..
from a grade of technical complication i'd rather wouldn't..
like dweezilsome aleready said..
i'd like to see a battle between weckl and carter..;)
@filipdinev1 Indeed.
that’s the shit right there!
Brian is right. This is Boyd's song. He TORE IT UP in New Jersey night before last. Highlight of the entire night. (But Carter and Stefan rock that song too)
Carter is the man!
muito bom!!!
everyone is always talking about carter's drumming, if they only knew how complicated dave's guitar is
I'm not sure I have ever seen carter's forearms lol
do you guys think a cover of this song would still be good even without a violin?
what concert is this?
ok. thanks guys.
Does no one notice that they digitally adjusted dave's voice pitch?
Dude I am 16 years old and I fucking Love this song ! :D :D
Wow now you’re 29 yo! Crazy
@topsyturvyity As long as you still have a sax to define the hits, I think it could work.
Haha, the reaction I expected from you. It's just ironic. Chill out dude. I, along with probably everyone else that watches this video, is wondering how you can have such a temper while listening to this song.
Where is this concert?
I thought tripping billies means running from the cops in south africa when they caught him doing drugs on the beach. The band is from virginia but Dave is from south africa.
whats carter rated?? i mean like ranks of best drummers??
I get so mad when I see this because it just says how great DMB was...and how far they've fallen.
Dave Matthews or Tom Hanks ? :O
Is that Leroi Moore on sax?
Year ? Venue ?
@lachina128 amen
@phils0880 But I'm pretty sure I hear a hardware autotune device on his voice.
The Gorge, 2002
Terrible Genios!!! Carter el alma de DMB
@colubano0306 no you're kidding ah well still R.I.P. leroy brown
Oh Noes! 240p strikes again! :O
Keith Moon is up there
Boyd Tinsley=epic
i they shoulda shown carter at 1:50 to 2:15
This is Boyd's song.
Melhor assm mesmo,juntar uma galera e fazer um bom som :)
Carter Beauford can play Metal!!!!!
@chicago92100 wrong video sir
those kids at 1:23 made me cringe. I love to get it on at concerts but I dunno something just made me go oooooofff
@chicago92100 leroi moore sir
in my opinion, carter is the best drummer in the world!!
@colubano0306 ok
ao invés de ir embora, que tal fazer a sua parte por uma música melhor?toque guitarra ou baixo, eu toco bateria...
eargazem!
Ultimate white mans music.
Next to Hootie & The Blowfish, I agree.
'cause he got tired of running
@topsyturvyity no
