Ayo! Anyone attending any of either leg's stops this summer? Last summer certainly did not fail to disappoint, and I imagine this summer will be a blast as well. I've got tickets to the Worcester and Saratoga shows, and scoping out the Atlantic city run as well. No West Coast leg for me unfortunately.

So yeah, who's stoked? What does everyone want to hear this summer?

So much kizzle at Bisco, but it's everywhere.

Spencer if you keep up to date in this thread > http://www.jambase.com/forums/Thread.aspx?group=0&topic=1&thread=62532&pg=100 you can get a lot of the summer Phish tour SBDs. You just gotta hunt through the pages.

no need to hunt through pages. Can pretty easily search for every sbd, or just check pt.

Well you said you gotta "hunt through the pages". To me that's a waste because I could get to everything without searching through a bunch of stuff.



Jambase kind of died. Still shit on there but I don't even go on there anymore. Great site but I don't have much use for it anymore.

Not to thread jack, but on a quick note, has anyone seen UM on their summer run so far? They're killing it imo.

Just so this post isn't completely useless. Sorry for the 45 min wait between DLs, but they're not my links.

Phish SBDs (get em while they're hot)

SBD stands for a soundboard quality recording. It's the highest quality recording you can get of a live show. Less audience noise, better highs and lows, ect.. I'm a stickler about my music quality. It really does make a difference.

here's night three in Saratoga

I like audience tapes though. Some people hate them all. I feel like I'm at the show again more.


That said, some tapers suck.

I understand where you're coming from, because I used to be on archive.org 24/7 downloading AUD tapes. I can still appreciate them for the fact that tape trading is a tradition that's been around a lot longer than me.

I think I've just heard one too many inattentive audiences. There's also nothing like a clear bass line, and a crisp guitar solo.

Not saying I don't like SBD's. I usually snag both. I listen to a lot of taper stuff from archives and sugar megs. I have a little bit of everything.

I never thought I would say anything like this, but night 2 imo was a better performance than either DMB shows at SPAC. It actually blew my mind.

For me it is a very bold statement, coming from someone who can recite 99% of all Dave Matthews lyrics and shivers when he hears certain songs. It didn't beat some other Dave shows but I was legitimately blown away. Just the showmanship and the way the set flows is incredible.

I'm not a big fan but the members of DMB are incredibly talented. If you dny that than you suck at music.

My biggest problem with DMB is simply the crowd it draws. The phish crowd is so much better. A big party but people that can handle their shit, and are friendly to each other.

Not a bunch of bros starting shit, and 14 year old girls drinking their first natty lights/keystones and puking on each other

I like DMB quite a bit more, but also love phish. I 100% agree about the crowds though.

^Also you are completely wrong. When DMB jams, they fucking jam. I don't know where you got that notion.

Oh, and if there is one thing we can please agree on, Dave is a much, much better songwriter than Trey.

To me, DMB is like the natty light of beers and Phish is a heady microbrew. Natty light is a great way to start and get yourself introduced and familiar with beer but then you start to crave something a little more complex and sophisticated. Natty light (DMB) is like the gateway into appreciating a good beer (other jambands i.e. phish and sci) for many people.

I just saw my first Dave show at SPAC earlier this summer after turning down the chance for a decade now. Simultaneously in the middle of the show, this girl to my right was getting finger banged and a dude to my left vomited everywhere. That's when I realized that it would also be my last Dave show.
