  • Does anyone know the name of this song?

  • ecstacy.

  • Ha, Ha, Ha, maybe he is straight for some strange reason.

  • Idiot who posted this- THIS IS NORMAL DAVE <3

    

  • Acid my friend would not help stage fright!!! It would only make it more frightening you idiot!! You obviously haven't been down that road!

  • he takes acid he says it helps him because he has stage fright.

  • @yamadude1000 wrong

  • !/2 of his songs talk about smokin the herb do u think he may just be alittle stoned? Your weird!!!!

  • duh hes just stoned does that shock u that dave burns???

  • cocaine's a hell of a drug

  • cocaine's a hell of a drug

  • no complaints about why hes good to go but im sure its a super duper light emitting 12 string gitar with phasar cannons lol if you you can get some of his old school radio broadcast interviews now thats awesome

  • Look at his lip smacking cotton mouth lol I LOVE IT EVEN EFFED UP HE IS A BAD ASS DOESNT MISS A BEAT

  • @DeltaBassFrogger33 Fool to think, he only repeats it 100 times. 

  • @DeltaBassFrogger33 what would you call the song?

  • @DeltaBassFrogger33 take a guess....

  • @JamesD567 James- send me more pictures of your boobies. Thanks.

  • the performance is typical "Dave". A good at that. I am intrigued tho by the light and how it dances on his strings how it fills his guitar at 2:25. what is the spiriualality that occurs when he strums that chorus? thanks for this glimps of perfection

  • Even if he was a little drugged up that doesn't take away from what he just pulled off. If you have every heard the original song, which im guessin if you are watchin this video then you did, then you have to realize how difficult it was for him to do it solo and acoustically.....yes as amazing as I Dave is, I am still surprised he was able to pull this offf and make it sound amazing, because this song has so many different parts and time signature changes, so what he just did here is amazing:)

  • dave may not be on heroine here but he has most certainly dabbled with it. there is a line in one of the songs that says pull this needle from my vein

  • is it just me or would he make an amazing joker??? he has the same mouth movements and crazy personality!!

  • How could anybody not like this song, it's great!!

  • he looked drunk as fuck

  • This definitely 'looks' like a cocaine related moment... before and after the song. What's happening IN the song is probably the most amazing thing I've ever seen a musician do. For you math majors, the chorus is in 9/8. If he is not on cocaine, he might just be tapping in to the part of himself that can write and perform this piece. Fool To Think is Dream Theatre complex. However: One man. One guitar. One voice. Thank you for posting this.

  • Comment removed

  • @romans7fifteen this is continued nooooooooooooo

    .......and then after years of chchchchchanges, he is a grown man, wiser, and not what 99% think. BTW he hangs out in town and nobody treats him any different than the Salv. Army homeless that sleep drunk days off in the library by the downtown mall. Small town=people talk, even very close friends.He's not known by those who do know to still PARTY harder that a guy lovin' life and family. But I haven't ever seen dave or ashley. Not even at sbc

  • that's just dave. i personally find the more myself i become, the more 'weird' i become to others. i wish everybody would be a little more 'weird'...

  • @willjed So true...

  • you know hes high as shit

  • I ve known Dave for quite a few years.....He s usually high.....period .....end of discussion.....

  • @11banger Wow! Really! Did you go to SBC and hit the 'ol Bistro after The Jimis happened by. If you ever knew him, you have not in many a moon. Yeah, do you think Harper would like that with the tots? What did yall do down 20 at "The Hollow" or just hang and get high and the fam was home watching the tube. Did you stop at 7 Oaks and get ghosted out and the grey haired occupant let you hang, I know, no one that has kids and a wife would grow and learn. Tell me: Road=? Loves Cheese? Uncle N___n

  • @IRideSuperFilthy Wow dude....... Nice....... Got all the C ville drops in there huh.....

  • @11banger  No. I wanted to see if you would respond to any of the things that you would pick up on if you knew Dave more than from the line at Foods of All Nations, which obviously you do not. Scottsville is more appropriate for "drops". If you only had a clue. I find these types of posts amusing for the claims, "quite a few years", so when you got your autograph THAT was "quite a few years" ago. A reply of a few words to any "drop" would confirm your claim and, nope. Slander based on B.S.!

  • I agree with headstock48, everybody says he's always high.. I mean don't get me wrong he probably is high sometimes, but not every time he acts "weird"... He's a very outgoing and free person, that doesn't mean he is high

  • I love Fool To Think Dave. You picked a great one!

  • dave is super intelligent and thinks on levels most people cant...I guess that makes him "weird"...his songs are genius and he is probably the best performer I have ever seen.

  • Acting weird? obviously you don't know Dave...

  • Just because he acts loose and free does not mean he's "high" necessarily.

  • @TimothyADonaghue I agree. It kind of gets on my nerves that every time Dave acts different people say he's high. He's not high all the time. A lot of the time he's just expressing himself.

  • hey i know that guy and you should too he is one of the producers from fast and furious tokyo and the whole franchise

  • dave mathews shows up for work drunk he gets aplause and a raise if we show up drunk we get fired loose our house and end up in divorce court and have two slutty daughters and a crack dealin son pimpin em out

  • he's totally blown!!!!!!! hahahahahaa

  • Daaaaaammmm Dave can play that guitarr!!!!!!! He is fucking Rocks high or not! But I bet he has the most fun high! jajajajaja who wouldnt? jajajaja

  • for everyone wondering this is from DMBlive in Seattle 10.24.02

    Great great great recording.

  • He is a musician. He is an actor. Could be young and partying. Could be acting. Who cares. Dave entertaining is ALL good to me:) Was I a fool to give a shit?

  • He is a musician. He is an actor. Could be young and partying. Could be acting. Who cares. Dave entertaining is ALL good to me:) Was I a fool to give a sh--?

  • I hate how everyone takes his being nervous as being stoned, shut up lol. Dave has a Wife and Kids the last thing he needs are some dumbass kids talking about him being a drug addict. He's just a goofy guy lmao and if you don't understand what that means then go listen to some other artist cuz everyone knows none of those shitty rappers do drugs... >_>

  • @Progressionification A) Smoking weed doesn't make you a drug addict. B) He has all sorts of references to smoking the ganj in his songs so I'm pretty sure his wife/kids already know.

  • waitt im sorry, i know this might be stupid but whats this song calleed

  • @brook3838 The songs called Fool To Think :p great song :p

  • shame.. looks like he is on coke.. notice his teeth grinding and his jaw moving?

  • Did anyone notice willie nelson tryin to sneak behind him to the exit? Or is it me?

  • I'm pretty sure he's just doing impersonations. There was George Carlin in there somewhere.

  • Yes, he's doing a bit of the Joker from "Dark Knight" - not on purpose, I suppose.

  • Definitely Cocaine ....... I don't give a shit what he's on. Dave is a God among men. Plus Coke puts you on top of the world. I know i sing a lot better and perform live when i'm yanked out. Rock on Dave :)

  • He's not high, he's legally insane.

  • OFF. HIS. FACE.

  • I like Dave Mathews but he is a pot head burn out like all the other pot heads, hes just a slightly higher functioning burn out. It is true that many artists perform while high, I wouldn't call it "the majority" thats embellishing, and pot effects people differently so to blanket it by saying" how pot effects people" doesn't quite cut it. Once its legalized everyone can openly become burn out losers, till then you'll just have to keep smoking your medical EXCUSE marijuana.

  • @libidomosquito Wow don't you sound angry and judgmental. Maybe you should smoke a joint.

  • @JBic420 Your about three months to late with your reply for me to care about it.

  • Say what you will....he is high as fuck on cocaine. Something all need to understand...when you play music as often as Dave has while under the influence of "certain substances", it isn't a difficult task. The hardest thing to do is play well totally bombed on booze. And I mean friggin' wasted. Weed can enhance your senses a bit and lead to some creative playing. Coke will mostly make you act like this, but you can still kick ass while your playing...only if you kick ass sober as well.

  • @LeopoldGol I know you! You wrote that book "I Know Everthing" I can 100% tell you that what you think is BS, especially about Dave on 'caine, that is unless your brain stopped all memories beyond around 2001-2. I know, "this dumdahole dosen't know anything, I am a fan club member." Yep. Look at something chronologically. Stays same until 2001-2 then= Older..wiser...healthier...mus­ically no resemblance to pre '01-2, runs a farm, family. If he did not grow, we would have Kieth Richards 2 in town

  • @IRideSuperFilthy If there's anything I do know it's when someone is high. I'm not putting him down, he's one of my favorite musicians and songwriters and he is great on every song from this show. Many people have families, kids, careers and dabble in drugs...or use them a helluva lot. I've worked in substance abuse centers and before that hung out with people who used all kinds of drugs and guess what? Dave is high on cocaine.

  • the way he's acting kinda reminds me of the joker lol

  • This is dave, he's not acting weird. this is how he is. Go buy this album on DMBlive. He talks alotttttt, with a lot of good stories haha.

  • no, seems like normal amazing dave lol

  • He reminds me of the joker from the dark knight.

  • hey there kurt are you a musician? the last time i checked there was only one cobain and hes no longer with us sadly, so unless you actually know the "majority" of the musicians that you speak of and personally get high with them or document the daily intake that they partake in maybe you shouldnt be so ignorant when referring to them in the future now go play a violin for me and cry

  • this is just dave being himself. just because he can be funny and loose doesnt mean he is on drugs all the time. and definitely not cocaine or heroine.

  • @41nolez

    Oh NEVER, not a single grain of 'caine.

    Never a match head,

    never......

    In 1993 I was choppin' one with a blade and some random dude I was with pulled out a dollar and taught me to put the stuff on the table and cover with dollar and use a lighter to smash, repeat until powder.

    Take out Amex and spread 2 out and...you know the rest.

    I can't remember who I was with. Damn good skills with substance prep.

    David J would NEVER have done that, especially at Prothro, noooooooooooo

  • @41nolez I hate that shit!! How some people think the only way people can let loose is to be on drugs of some kind....what a bunch of morons

  • pot alone doesnt do that to people.....lol its definatly somethin else...

  • He's a fucking genius, he can act as weird as he wants to.

    Loved him on House. :)

  • @PhantomPhart - WISE WORDS - AMEN! ^_^

  • Even as much as people say he's drunk/high, I'd have to say he's not. I don't know about you, but if I was performing up there, I'd act weird just to make people laugh...

  • I agree, just being himself. Performing beautiful music.

  • I would bet money that he was neither drunk nor high, this is just Dave.... just Dave being Dave and i LOVE IT!

  • UM im pretty sure his drunk not high... hes still the best and always will

    be

  • UM im pretty sure his drunk not high... hes still the best and always will

    be

  • deffnitly NIGHT TIME DAVE!!

  • he's just nervous as fuck.

  • I think he just gets drunk...... A LOT lol

  • DMBdeerCreek4Life@ he would be so more fucked up if that was herion buddy he couldn't play dumbass

  • thanks!

  • song name please!! thanks

  • @santilosada7 fool to think!!!!

  • messed up messed up messed up messed up... GODLY GUITARIST AND SINGER

  • dave is prolly all fucked up on heroin. he used to love that shit! thats how he came up with all the crazy combinations on songs. obviously he doesnt anymore. dave is always doing random funny ass shit! he is a god in my eyes!

  • Dave Matthews and a Taylor.... who could ask for more?

  • He's not weird. He has a comedic side. He's expressed many times his discontent with then president George Bush and he was doing an impression of him being a dotz. He wasn't hight he was sucking on a cough drop because his throat was a litlle sore. Besides he did at one time speak about being 'out of it' on a song & he kept repeating the chorus. He said panicked a little because the song kept going on and on and on. In my opinion, if he was high he wouldn't be able to get through his set.

  • @filmtress lol ur tryin so hard to convince ur self that ur idol dave matthews doesnt smoke the sweet sweet ganj but ur highly mistaken , shit ur parents are prolly blazin up right now along wit 60% of america hhahahaa including urs truly

  • @rocklobsta1415 It really doesn't matter to me. But I like listening to him. I rather listen to him then to you. As far as my parents are concerned they didn't do drugs. I don't either...never have. But seeing your channel should I assume that you are an expert? Go ahead, knock yourself out. I'd rather stay sober and take life as it comes fully conscious.

  • cocaine

  • Liked the song. Thanks for the post. Ya might want to go my page and hear Dave tell the best story EVER! The vid is titled: Dave Matthews Tells a Drunken Tale. Hope you enjoy.

  • This is just normal dave.legend!

  • what song is this is?????

  • He's not really acting weird because he doesn't know what he's doing he's just super high..(: but that's okay cause he's hilarious when he's high

  • NOT WEIRD. That's just DAVE!!! <3 He's always wiggly.

  • Dave can't act wired, but weird can definitely act Dave.

  • Yea. Dave Acts weird. Dave is weird. Its also called being unique and just as he said, "Caution to the wind" He doesnt care about what people think of him. He's a musical genius, a vocal master, a guitar prodigy and a lord of words. He is himself, produces his own kind of music and even if drugs are involved, it doesnt take away from his talent and if anything ADDS to it. I believe though that if he wasnt famous, he'd still be playing his guitar on the street and be perfectly happy.

    I LOVE DAVE

  • @PurpleMicrowave and ur a faggot

  • @rocklobsta1415

    i really dont wanna start an online arguement with a special needs kid so

    i hope you have a nice life :)

    also, you're an idiot if you don't think dave is amazing.

    oops, dropped your helmet.

  • F is for Fuck your the man Dave!!

  • And thats what H does to you :)

    Love him.

  • HEs acting weird cuz its NOT DAVE MATTHEWS... ITS KEVIN SPACEY ... AS DAVE MATTHEWS... lol

    just kidding

  • when is dave not weird

  • Seems like cocaine kind of, the deep inhales, random spazms, extreme talkativeness.

  • @Cornbreadddd um noo not at all, i don't know how many people you kno that do coke, but um i am an avid fan and i work in a hospital so im not just saying this, that is DAVE MATTHEWS. so back up.

  • IDONT CARE THAT THIS SHIT MAKES ME LOOK LIKE I HAVE TITS lol priceless dave

  • fool to think is a great song...ive never heard this acoustic! great version!

  • Love this man

  • I didn't like this song till I watched this video. I actually like it so much I learned how to play it. His live work is def. better than his studio work.

  • @bnjmnkntts its fun to play isnt it? i learned that song in 05.

  • wow! great version of this song.

    dave is way funny. not weird but funny, hilarious!!

    the beginning strummings of this song

    reminds me of this one cover song john mayer

    does by the police.

  • Isnt this from the Benaroya Hall show in seattle?

  • @dmbdork Yes.

  • If you've ever been to a Dave concert than this behavior should NOT come as a surprise!!!!! Awesome fucking song!!

  • Thats Dave NOT on drugs lol

    jk

    Love you dave

  • hes got proper skill like, hessss sickkk:)

  • Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

  • @notoriousaam i have done lots of cocaine and it won't make you play this well. dave is full of skill and talent and years of hard work. go fuck your self notoriousaam

  • No he's not wierd, he's mimicking our good ole former President Bush who was president at the time. Dave critized him alot. Remember? Notice they likeness of George Bush when he does the impression. Funny huh? If you can find them there are a few more videos on YouTube of Dave talking about him.

  • what's the song?

  • @luisogando fool to think

  • this is why I love him! nothing weird though, just Dave! and he was amazing, this song is so different recorded in studio. Love Dave! Love DMB!

  • lmfao stfu kid i smoked with dave and boyd before the show at darien lake on june 2nd 2010

  • Yeah, Dave has smoked pot, and might still on occasion. But I've seen him in person with his daughters in Seattle, and he's just a normal guy. He wears the same clothes onstage and off, and being a parent has mellowed him just like the rest of us. To be honest, I think his "weed" reputation only served to get him more fans. I don't think he's ever been as much of a druggie as you're lead to believe.

  • He says he's never played this song alone before--he's a little nervous! He may or may not be high...Obviously he's not too altered or he wouldn't be anxious! He's showing his humanness here...he wants to play what he wants to play, and wishes he could be all bad ass about it...but the truth is he's a little nervous.

    The only thing I can't understand is when he says "understand I'm going into this with a relative amount of...?"

  • dave is awsome when hes fucked up! soo stop hatinn!

  • this is most definently, 100%ly what cocain will do to you. haha

  • i love dave lol

  • He was doing a Jim Carrey imitation. HE'S THE BEST !!!!!

  • of course dave could play this well if he was high... ummm hes dave

  • too cool!

  • no wayy dude if he were he he wouldnt be able to play that well

  • @XBOXPLAYER920 I'm pretty sure dave has played high before at concerts. Correct me if I'm wrong but I was pretty sure he's smoked at concerts and said concerts were still phenomenal.

  • this is an amazing post...

  • high much?

  • He looks a LOT like Jim Carrey in this video. Especially when he does the faces at the beginning

  • hmm, if he was high, i dont think he would manage to play the guitar? hes just being him self. so YANO.

  • @JuciyBabe95 You're plain retarded if you think people don't perform high all the time

  • @JuciyBabe95 you r one dumb bitch

  • @JuciyBabe95 Naive little girl. The majority of musicians perform while they are high. You have a very overblown idea of how pot effects people. Go do something more constructive than be dumb on the internet.

  • @Kurt67Cobain94

    The majority of musicians........

    No.... not even close.... Although many musicians do, the majority, being over 50%, do not... I'd assume uner 1% of musicians do.

    But if you listen to music like DMB, Jack Johnson, John Mayer, etc..... 100% do.

  • @Kurt67Cobain94 I totally agree with you, because many people totally take the effects of pot out of proportion and there's nothing that bothers me more.

  • @JuciyBabe95 Yeah many musicians perform high all the time. Somebody needs to learn some education about marijuana. The D.A.R.E. pamphlets and ads aren't exactly true haha.

  • @JuciyBabe95 ive played many times stoned out of my mind and i play just as good as i would be sober. actually it feels like im playing better haha

  • @JuciyBabe95 I take it you've never heard of Jimi Hendrix....

  • DAVE IS AMAZING I LOVE FOOL TO THINK!!!!!!!!!

  • CTFD!!!

  • he's on coke for sure.

  • He's cranked up people.

  • He's not high... He's... Himself- the best individual in music :)

  • what song is this???

  • @baseballjones18 FOOL TO THINK

  • Dave Matthews delivers on both weird and complete awsomeness.

  • haha this is funny as hell. i can't believe he can be that gone and still play that well

  • what song is he playing here? will someone kindly answer me.

  • @maverickvicars fool to think

  • @maverickvicars its Dave Matthews - Fool To Think

  • @maverickvicars yea fool to think, Just an earlier version.

  • @maverickvicars fool to think

  • Man, I completely doubt that he could play guitar and sing beastly while being high....haha he reminds me of my sister's boyfriend!

  • looks like he just did a 8 ball of that christmas snow

  • how much coke dave?

  • THANX ONCE AGAIN DAVE =)

  • god he can play like a beast while singing, that shit is tuff specially a song like this

  • He used to snort copious amounts of cocaine and of course pot!!!!! He doesn't do coacaine as much now.

  • dude he's high as fuck haha

  • Dave is awesome = )

  • high ! he's higher than a mother. Also he's an awesome musician

  • I hope that when Dave Matthews music career slows down with age, even though I love DMB, he starts to act in a lot of movies, because he has much acting potential.

  • yes. hes mos def high.

  • He's being goofy, looks a little drunk. But looks fun, I approve

  • Dave For President, in Italy!

  • yeah.. he does that sometimes.. i don't think he was dopped or anything.. look at him playing. he is JUST fine. he does that sometimes.

  • Name of song?
