Does anyone like them? I've always banned them from my music library because I have always thought of them as crappy, college new-age music, but I have to admit that soem of their songs are pretty catchy. They also look like they'd be an awesome band to see live.

this band gets that bad stereotype alot. especially by people who have not heard more than a song or havent given a fair listen to. people are too quik to judge.
if you can appreciate musicianship, you will love this band.

I hate their guts. Well.. not really, but I dont like that kind of music at all. I dunno, I cant really get into that style.
Funny thing, I said I hated dave mathews at one party and some girl freaked the fuck out on me and told me to leave her house. It ended alright though, she set me down for a talk and I lied to her saying I didnt mean it.
damn DM fans..

I love DMB, but it took a while of listening to thier music before I really picked up on how great it is.
Dave in concert is awesome, everyone is stones and Dave will just jam out for a while. Best place to see him was at bonarroo, but I dont think he is playing there this year , actually, i dont think many people I like will be playing there this year.

They're great. I bet if most people that say they hate them would give a listen to a whole album they'd at least like a few songs.

I can think of plenty of bands made up of members who I can admit are musically quite, quite talented. But liking a band is a matter of aesthetic pleasure, of taste, and respect alone can not make me enjoy a band's music.

the Dave Matthews Band gets shit because they're popular...because they're good. They're not underground enough for some people, so they get no street cred. I will defend the Dave Matthews band til I die. They're my favorite band no doubt about it. They're the tightest fucking band in live performance. I've been to my fair share of Phish shows and other various jamband shows, and they're great as well. But nothing hits the spot like the DMB. If one digs deep past the popular songs dave has/had on the radio (they're good too) you will find thoughtful lyrics and worldly jams. Cheers to Dave summer tour 06.

yeah most DMB songs are longer then maybe radio stations will play. therefor it tends to be thier shorter songs that get played. kind of a bummer cuz most of thier best stuff is a bit longer in length.

People tend to get really bitchy and bitter when "their" band no longer fits in their back pocket.

that's funny since he doesn't have a version.
he does how ever have many different versions, it's changed drastically over his years.
anyone who takes the studio out take as anything misses the point, maybe you don't like the way he plays any time though

I personally love Dave Matthews, especially live. They always put on such an amazing performace. I believe it was at Bonnaroo when he played "Some Devil" with just him and his guitar, it's such an emotional song, and he seemed pretty close to tears.
I almost cried at the part where he says "You said always, and forever, and I believed you baby"
For anyone who think they're a mainstream, college-preppy jam band, well, you're certainly entitled to you're opinion, but I think he puts more soul in to his performanace that most entertainers out there, and they're a group of very talented musicians 
I'm uploading "Some Devil". This is the first song I've uploaded to the shroomery...a momentous occasion

I agree that hey are a great band. However, the majority of their following are frat types and sorostitutes. I was loathing their presence at Bonnaroo(the fans). They are generally choads and they have no respect for anyone. That aside, I love the music of DMB.

I ate a few mushroom chocolates, danced with my eyes closed, and had absolutely no problem ignoring all of the preppy kids who came to see just Dave
