Dave Matthews Band: Pig 9.1.02 from Alpine Valley

[kakapoopification]

i hate dave matthews...i just dont get it

[raycarroll]

this blessed sip of life, is it not enough? Then staring down at the ground and complain that I need more from above..like some greedy little pig.

[merbeanjeanlewis]

@raycarroll favorite lyric ever!

[Hizzasp]

Everything must end sometime, so don't burn the day away!

Touche, Dave.

[365plainfield]

My first DMB show!! One of the best I have seen since.

[fabioo24]

everyday i listen to this song on the way to work and i still get goose bumps. Shake up your bones shake up your feet AND BE FREE.

[Fendley1Love]

Don't burn the day...gotta love it!!

[ShawnyMartin]

Carter. Fuck.

[smarterthananyone]

Sooo much better back in the days before Tim joined the band. No disrespect meant to Tim's enormous talents, I just perfer the sound without him and WITH Butch on keys.

[pilotbrianb]

@smarterthananyone You and everyone else! :-/

[inutdeivoluntasfiat]

Timmy played guitar on Under the Table and Dreaming, Crash & Before these Crowded Streets. Daves three best albums in my opinion. Sorry you feel that way.

[tc5150]

@inutdeivoluntasfiat Man I have to totally agree with you Tim kicks ass

[dmbdispatch14]

@inutdeivoluntasfiat Tim is an incredible player but when I went to the caravan this summer he sordov took alot of attention from boyd it might of just been the setlist because the songs werent huge boyd songs but more him and warren shredding on cortez and 41 dont get me wrong that is always awesome but I'm hoping to hear alot of boyd on this up and coming album

[pkristof692]

I was there and was moved to tears by music for the first time... Cried like a lil' bitch at about the @6:10 mark. Before then I had no idea creative expression could be so powerful. Life-changing moment.

[rfb06]

that gives me chills.

[raycarroll]

this song always gets me through...

[rudy317537]

This was my very first Dave show!  LOVE!

[mizzourahtigers]

I miss you Moore and Moore every year, Leroi. I hope you are playing "Somewhere over the Rainbow" drunk as a drunk for all the people in heaven.

[rafaelboaventura]

Realizei o sonho de ouvir essa música ao vivo no Brasil em 2010 no Rio de Janeiro!Foi demais!É uma das minhas favoritas da DMB!Ah,eu adoro a fase em que o Buch Taylor tocava com a banda...sinto muitas saudades dele!!!!

[47gailmarie]

Alpine Valley......Are they still there? Seen so many concerts there......Oh, and fabulous tune from a fabulous band :)

[onerighteousdude421]

top contender for my favorite song lyrics-wise

[philberz]

this looks exactly like the Gorge dvd Pig

[ashalilove]

@2:13 adore that lyric!

[MysticDMBherb]

One of the best songs to open to

[46668891]

Great Jam!

[46668891]

Alpine Valley is the best outdoor venue I have ever been too! Beautiful song!

[jerrylovelight]

Good band who's live experience is ruined by screaming 12 year olds and those who act like one. It's about the music. shut the hell up and dance.

[skinnyfat55]

@jerrylovelight - i agree which is why i haven't seen dmb in a year.

[skinnyfat55]

@jerrylovelight unfortuanately i have to agree. STFU and DANCE

[rainbowpagun]

@jerrylovelight PEACE &LOVE

[davito97402]

i hope they tour in 2012!

[HanaEurope]

Look, here are we

On this starry night, staring into space

And I must say

I feel as small as dust lying down here.....

[skinnyfat55]

Opening with Pig...good lord almighty it doesn't get better than that. DMB RULES.

[Dagreenmanator]

@skinnyfat55 It did the other night at Scranton, opened with The Stone > Warehouse!

[skinnyfat55]

@Dagreenmanator - wish i had been there!

[elrockydelsiglo]

[abbottgr]

[codynass]

Dave played pig and halloween last year at alpine, what a pleasure to hear two rare songs like that! such a grand jam!

[vic4562]

summer 2008?? I dont remember them playing this song, since I was there.. i think you mean Spoon.. Pig and The Last Stop were the only two songs from BTCS that they didnt play..

[blahman178]

isn't that gonna be released as Live Trax 15?

[midwestskater2]

played pig and halloween this year

[TBALLIN23]

@midwestskater2 and you never know sucka

[esteban0321]

Is this not enough This blessed sip of life Is it not enough Staring down at the ground And we complain and pray We need more from above Like some greedy little pig Stop just watch your world trickle away but its no problem now 'Cause you me we'll be dead and gone in A few short years Just love can open our eyes Just love can put the hope back in our minds Much more than we could ever know Dont burn the day away

[54spiritedwill54]

Simply amazing.

[Beaudreau]

you dont know who leroi moore was? leave........ now

[CutlerisGod39]

Fenway is better, but this is good.

[iluvskittlez101]

awesome quality considering its a live performance :)

wow i never really noticed how long this song was...

<# every second of it anywayz!! :D

[iluvskittlez101]

whoops meant <3 it anywayz :D

[Littlething41]

If Anyone has VA Beach 96 or 99 I believe, I will love you forever! These guys performed the best PIG EVER! In my opinion. I had a copy of the entire show until it was stolen like 6 years ago and I'm still morning. If anyone has it where I can download it, I swear I will work out my own stimulus package for you!

[mpddispatch]

hahaha I got you covered. Was at both of those shows as well. I'll start looking through the archive.

[jaking1185]

The first DMB song I ever saw live, at my favorite venue in the world. Thanks for posting this.

[ddiety]

This song means alot! Feel sorry for the closed minded that have no idea who DMB is!!

[bryceandjake]

Don't Burn the Pig!

[meeksochic]

Whenever I am sad or happy as hell (like I am now) I always listen to this song.. GOOD STUFF... RIP Leroi Moore..

[iluvskittlez101]

who is leroi moore?

[livnlifeonaplate]

Sax player, who passed away over the summer due to an ATV accident, and complications the came about after it

[KINGKOOL78]

im totally 100% naked now hehe s

[cassapalooza]

haha im naked!!! U

[Melyzza30]

It's amazing how the meaning of this song changed for me after Roi died. :(

[TechGeek1213]

American's especially are so wrapped up in skin color. Ailbubble, you're a fucking moron. Dave Matthews is a proud African American!!!! Whoooo Haaaaaa

[eclecticbgirl]

R.I.P LeRoi <3!!!!!

[eclecticbgirl]

man, i looove how dramatic Dave gets during his performances :)!

[ailbubble]

lolz, it was a joke, but seriously, I've never seen a black guy play a violin.. or at least not as good as this guy!

[IISOFxChaosII]

ailbubble im sorry but your pretty much steriotyping black people because he plays the violin you are a tool saying what you said is just as bad as saying the n word

pussy

[LazyHippi]

yeah that nigger can sure play :)

[rollboy35]

Boyd plays the pentatonic scale almost exclusively. He plays the same 5 notes in every single song. Niggers sure can play 5 notes!!!!!

[terpfan1473]

yeah its funny cuz he makes more for a show than your gonna make in your whole life asshole...get a fucking life

[poopies474]

all of my brothers from martin luther kid jr. drive are gonna beat the living shit out of you

[8002431]

i dont get it airbubble what do you mean you retard you never seen dave mathews band perform wow you live a shelterd life im suprised you have a computer !hey we landed on the moon! FYI

[ailbubble]

GASP! I've never seen a black guy play a violin before!! THAT"S IMPOSSIBLE!!!!1

[hoysauce]

your a fuckin fagget

[hoysauce]

ailbubble

[colormecolorado]

Best Dave song by far, in my opinion.

Great video!!!

[TEEDUB2440]

i semi-agree colorado, i feel his less performed songs are his best mainly because we dont take them for granted like we do antz marching, Pig, Mother Father and Spoon the three best in my opinion

[Stabn]

You're right on Pig and Spoon but Mother Father is horrible.

[TEEDUB2440]

okay i did kind of over exaggerate on Mother Father, but lyrically that song is up their with his best.

[xdoubledeuce22x]

it's pouring through our veins....intoxicating...just love will open our eyes...

this blessed sip of life...

take this song in and helps me humble myself...just perfectly awesome as all of dave is...!!!!

[vick7hannes]

This song always makes me feel good :)

beyond description

[JillieUA]

Gah everytime I listen to them it puts me in such a good mood :)

Can't wait to see them this summer!

[mwills80]

ALPINE!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!

[harrisc42]

Ditto. Best place to see Dave and the boys. Except maybe the Gorge.

[geoffduck87]

The Gorge is the most beautiful place in the world and anyone who is lucky enough to see Dave there is truly blessed.

8/29 - 8/31 2008

[goingtothegorge]

Agree.  2008 will be my 5th week-end at the Gorge.

[goingtothegorge]

That's in response to GeoffDuck

[BCballer004]

red rocks is also very beautiful

[TEEDUB2440]

ME TOO ANT

[Gojulas895]

Simply amazing. You were absolutely right, this is an incredible version of Pig.

[davefan12]

where is alpine valley located? Which state?

[Gojulas895]

It's an amphitheater in East Troy, Wisconsin

[punkuzz900george]

did Boyd write this one?

[Bluestravelerallfory]

Nope Dave did :)

[punkuzz900george]

Ohhhh, cheers =]

[Bluestravelerallfory]

No worries mate, if Im not mistaken he got inspired in UK watching a tellyshow :)

[punkuzz900george]

lol! Why won't they come back to the UK? You guys are so lucky in America!

[cmabry3]

Haha, he will sometime.

[brfilora]

Surely....It's based off their old song dont BURN the Pig, about a tradition in Africa in a tribe where they would burn a pig and throw it in the river to see if it sank or floated, often determening the guilt or innocence of a tribe member on trial

[Atrippingbillie37]

acually the whole band wrote this one

[juice080808]

This show was amazing, a little funny story, after the show there was this girl giving away posters and the only way she would give you one is if you could guess her favorite dave song, well i guessed it right"pig"

[laudypapa]

this band is one of the BEST concerts ever in my opinion and ive only been to 2
