tempos of DMB's songs over the years

Unread post by cameronl » Sun Oct 21, 2007 3:12 am

I don't know if its just me, but when I listen to some of DMB's songs from like 94'-99' compared to how they are played now, it seems like the band used to play a lot of their songs much faster. When I say faster I mean, the tempos of the songs. For example, What Would You Say, All Along the Watchtower, Warehouse just to name a few, seems like they used to be played so much faster. It is because the band is a lot older now, or is it just how the songs have evolved over the years (to be played slightly slower)? Has anyone else noticed this or am I just Fool to Think?

They don't indulge in the same drugs they used to back then.

I've noticed this too. I think it is most obvious on Live at Red Rocks. All the songs seem to be played at a higher tempo.
