It's called "nervousness", kids. The man is still a pretty humble fella and he gets nervous on stage even after all these years...especially when he's all alone haha. He doesn't have his band behind him and he doesn't even have Timmy Reynolds with him for this one.
at this time in history, 10/02, i was headed to boot camp to defend this country against the attacks of sept 11 on my home, new york. but now im back and im out honorable discharge sitting on my desk. thanks to all my brothers who payed with their life so we can enjoy everything we have in the united states. i dont know what he meant bout peaceful solutions but unfortunately there wasnt much of that :( Now in 07/11, i do know where im going as opposed to 10/02. glad im alive though. Semper Fi
Hasn't anyone ever heard of improv lmao... He changes the lyrics half the time so he doesn't have to play the same song 2000 times over and say the same lines again and again, he's trying to add another flavor to the song.
This video is classic dave. acustic, dialogue, speaking what is on his mind...kick ass. hopefully he will go acustic in tampa, fl this summer...i am so there.....leroi lives on...
Not to go completely against what you're saying but he primarily uses the Fishman Matrix systems - I'm willing to bet that Taylor set it up from them with it. Maybe not but that's probably the case. Taylor is pretty flexible when ordering directly from them...
yes, dork, nerd, loser... all the things that you get called on a daily basis... and what you're saying is that dave has his own pickups? Dave Matthews pickups? Never heard of them as they don't exist...
I love how people pretend like they KNOW whether he is, or isn't. (Please, save the rant on what a model human being Dave is). My point is - NONE OF US KNOW.
ha yea i agree about how ppl pretend to think they know what ppl that are high look like or act like, honestly he is not gettin high everytime (maybe couple times for shwos haha)
but yea you can tell when he drinks
hes fuckin amazing doesn't matter haha watever just listen to him
It's funny to me when people commment about how he can't speak corrrectly or coherently, but yet when he plays his songs he's always on the ball, he doesn't studder or forget his train of thought and he never misses a gutiar note....It's weird how that works...
I have to respectfully disagree. Dave - on rare occasion - nah, a little more than rare, mutilates his lyrics. Not to go singling out one silly example but I just happened to be listening to this show in its entirety. Check out Too Much from this show 6:15 - he blows the entire second verse - and not people, he's not riffing - calm down everybody, still cool, still great, still a genius, just - not a robot. Peace and love. God this show is incredible!
dave has poked fun at himself in many interviews for his tendency to forget and mutilate lyrics....him and eddie vedder (although with vedder its hard to tell either way lol) both great artist though
@bigpoppaa1 haha. He's just amazing. But he does mess up. I've seen him mess up countless times. you just gotta be a hardcore fan to know when he messes up. He's just that good. He covers it well.
Aaaannndd this is why he makes the big bucks!!!
