Dave Matthews Plays Gravedigger In South Africa

Dave Matthews, originally from South Africa, plays Gravedigger unplugged in the Jacaranda 94.2 studio at MonteCasino for a small group of fans. Sorry about the dodgy sound quality. http://www.mikestopforth.com/2007/12/21/meeting-dave-matthews-now-i-can-die-h...

How did you get this?

[mikestopforth]

i was there :)

[mhays21]

i think the person singing along is worse than the cameras..which by the way were probably those of journalists who probably have nice digital slr's..the new old school, which still make the "click" because its still moving a mirror around in there to take pictures.

[mikestopforth]

mhays21 - they were digital SLR's. Unfortunately I was closer to the studio audience than Dave so those sounds - like the coffee mug - came through much clearer. Also, I would've preferred no background singing but some of the guys were just in the moment I guess - it was a big thing for us South Africans to see him at all :)

I would if anybody has the radio broadcast of this performance when this video was recorded. Been looking for a copy of it.

@mikestopforth can I like that sentence a hundred times? lol Lucky bastard!

@sixstring1991 How often have you been in a room with 20 or so people while ANY rockstar is only 10 ft away performing. Im not sayin he doesn't put his pants on & wipe his ass the same way everyone else does BUT i know that everyone does not have a voice that can attract a world-wide fanbase like his & the band. It would be a once in-a-lifetime experience with ANY stadium-filling rockstar.

[sixstring1991]

@musiclover1223 dude, your elevating DM to a superhuman status; yeah, he's remarkably successful, but at the end of the day, he's just the same as the rest of us

[ThePelkinator]

@mikestopforth thats sick

[musiclover1223]

Singing along at a concert is one thing but singing along when you're in the same room with Dave performing is completely different. The man fills stadiums for god sake. You shut the f**k up & listen! I would slap this bitch if i were there! You can sing along anytime when your listenin to a record but how often will Dave Matthews be playin a song 5ft. infront of you? Unbelievable! Nobody there wants to hear her howlin to the song. So you know the words- so what? We all know the f**kin words!

[bigdady24]

Tell me you seriously would stand there and not be excited and sing along... Imitation is the highest form of flattery... Maybe she was just trying to feel the music in her own way! I love that! I just can't help but sing when I hear Dave play... It's cool for those South Africans to finally get to hear Dave play there... Awesome moment I think... Thanks for posting!!

I dunno how old his daughter is but if she is young she may like the ring around the rosy part. I love the song! ~cg5
