  • awesome.

    people voted for bush.

    people listen to clear channel stations.

    music is dying.

    but i would normally throw dave matthews into that pop music group, so i'm suprised to see him in this.

  • Too bad this documentary is not better known. As far as I'm concerned, it's "must watch."

  • mmm chips ahoy

  • saw this movie at band camp, life changeing

  • I get the point...and its True..all their saying there no real music that is out there,the music thats being played on the radio is overated and it bubblegum music.. whether its Rock or Hiphop..Music back then was more progressive,But now all you get is a Fall out boy and 3 chord progression and these guys are making millions off this..Hihop died like in early 2006..sure lil wayne is gettin money.but there no soul or essence in their music.. all you get is noise and Dj khaled or soulja boi =[

  • I could name you many artists that to me sound the same as DMB. But then you would probably disagree because, honestly I'm not into jam bands at all and I'd wouldn't pick up on differences that may be obvious to you. And sorry but yes, being widely popular does make you mainstream: He sells tons of records, does promotion, big tours, and is signed to a major label. You could argue that DMB isn't pop, isn't manufactured, and even that his music is unique, but without a question he is mainstream.

  • His songs are played sometimes, but any DMB fan would know that his live stuff is a lot different than what you hear on the radio. He emprovises, he has songs that exeed 12 minnutes, and he has a sound all his own. Can you name me one artist/band that sounds remotely like him? Believe me, I was just like you not long ago. It wasn't till my brother started getting into him that I gave him a chance, only to find that the guy has a lot of soul. And being popular doesn't make you "mainstream" .

  • you should whatch the whole thing.

  • The whole idea behind this documentary is tired and lazy. It is trying to create a set of artificial binaries and simply dismissing music which does not fit certain completely arbitrary criteria (supported by weak and often contradictory arguments) as irrelevant/bad/evil. The ultimate rockist statement.
