Dave Matthews Band
Dave Matthews Band is a talented band that took root in Charlottesville, Virginia during the early nineties. Known for astonishing live performances, the band grew a cult following as diverse as the members, themselves. Word first spread of the “
tripping billies” from Virginia through bootleg live recordings and counter-counter music festivals in 92. Featuring a discography that expands on every emotion, the blend incorporates a mix of jazz, folk, and jam-band. Benefiting from
classically educated musicians, the mind-expanding arrangements have inspired music majors and instructors alike. The
setlist is changed every night, meaning the band has dozens of intricate songs on memory, allowing 4 day-weekend performances. Though the band’s personalities are charming, humble and inclusive, trendhumpers go out of their way to piss on these guys. For some, it’s an intolerance of all things masculine; for others, hatred is fueled by the stereotypes of DMB followers. One critique being how bland, stupid and generic the band is-for this crowd, two radio edits are enough to ignore the 50+ other gems. Don’t be surprised if the david bowie loyalist in the purple v-neck quotes
pitchfork media as a means of establishing his or her supremacy over your twelve years as a school-instructed musician. When defending Dave, speak of how eco-friendly the band is and moved on-you were deemed bro from the start but planted a
little dave seed, you may have.

A truly talented band. People who are musically uneducated and narrow-minded tend to hate them. Many trash them without listening to their music. CD-recordings do them no justice, if you honestly want to hear all that is "
DMB", attend a live concert. Carter,
Leroi, and
Boyd basically make the band, with Dave's voice topping the cake. Anyone that says they are talentless has no musical taste. There's a difference between not liking
a band's music and thinking they suck.

A very large band with not a lot of substance, named after an ego-maniac. No one ever knows when they have a new album out, they just appear. It's creepy. Responsible for
Jack Johnson and to a lesser extent, John
Meyer. (At least John Meyer has comedy to
fall back on.) They should not be listened to, especially by young women in frat-guy rooms. It leads to bad things.
Example:
Guy: Hey, have you heard the new Dave
Matthews Band single?
Unsuspecting girl: No, I didn't know released a new album!
Guy: Dances
to Dave Matthews Band while touching himself
Girl: Leaves

A band that is often rejected by many due to the stereotype of its fans, who are often
douchebags in college. I personally enjoy their music; I find some (note some) of their works unique and original. Some of their songs are "
Satellite" and "
Warehouse."
Example:
College
Frat Kid:
Yo man, Dave Matthews Band is coming to play here!
Non-College Frat Kid: Stop
degrading us!

The coolest band in existence live and in studio. This is not cap by his genius live with sometimes songs over 30 minutes if you can extend a song that long you are a genius. His lyrical genius when playing live with his band members
Tim Reynolds, Stefan
Lessard, Jeff Coffee, and
Carter Beauford to name a few. It is just amazing how great they sound.
