That WAS pretty bad. Dave starting off singing the right words to the prechorus, but was playing the chords to the "Come sisters, my brothers" chorus part... They don't mix too well, and so that threw off Dave's singing into a jumbled mess. LoL. Fun to listen to though. :)
well you have to kinda of think about what a train wreck would be. if a train wreck is a minor mistake like this then dave train wrecks alot. but if he messes p an entire song but they band still gets through it is that a train wreck? or is a non recoverable mess up a train wreck also know as an abort.
Not a trainwreck, but Dave starts singing the lyrics to the chorus while playing the prechorus. When he was mumbling and improvising, he could'nt get back on key.
they worked through that pretty well. dave skipped a section early in YNK this year at alpine, but as always, the band reacted as well as they could have and just kept on to the prechorus and finished strong as hell. as for pig, dave improvises a ton and while the song wasn't necessarily new at this point, BTCS had only been out for a year. Same goes for rapunzel 98, which was written much more recently. Dave rocks and DMB gives us a damn good time to sing and dance, as always :)
Dave always improvises, forgets lines, and just fucking mumbles. But yea..he has hundreds of songs. You can't blame him. That's nowhere near a train wreck at all guys...come on.
i completely agree. hes an improviser, and hes always changing his lyrics. thats what makes him so great, i have dozens of versions of the same song because theyre all so unique. this is not a trainwreck
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
u cant say anything bad about dmb i mean they are a jam band they have only a small clue of what they are going to do on stage and then the rest is improv so this kind of thing is bound to happen
Really take a look at this comment for everyone who thinks this.. couldn't be anymore wrong. They are talented enough to improv and jam, but 90% is well planned out.
i dont think he forget the lines a lot, i mean he has over a hundred songs. i've seen him 17 times live. he like to slip in random verses here and there some of them are good some are bad but theres only been a few times where hes broken a string on stage during a song or something else happened
If a few lost/mixed up/garbled lines from Dave Matthews is all it takes to consider a song "trainwrecked" then every version of Halloween is a trainwreck.

Um no, he wasn't high...it's hard enough correcting yourself mid-song without hearing the lyrics in your ear, even harder when you're playing an instrument at the same time. If you stumble at the beginning of a long, continuous verse like Dave did it's hard to fix it.
Damn that was funny. Wish someone could transcribe this

no it is the singing. Dave starts singing the wrong part and skips a line and the band tries to cover up.

Im not saying Dave was definitely high for this, who knows, but he's definitely dabbled a good amount in the past
this is pretty bad though....lol

Define 'controlled substance'. If weed is included ignorance shouldn't give you hope.
