He used the 914 with a capo during tonights show. Is this a one-time thing or has he done this often this summer?

I watched the show on AOL and could not believe he used a capo for sister. I have never ever seen David J. Matthews use a capo, i figured they were against his religion or something, he always just tunes his guitars funny to avoid using them.

Anyhow, i saw him in Raleigh back in June and he played Sister on one of his Taylor 714's, no capo, so I'm assuming he did it just to do it. At least he used a Kyser quick-change

in that case, his wife must've bought him one for Father's Day and he doesn't want to offend her by not using it

I've seen him play it both ways. I'll have to find some decent tabs for that song or try to transcribe my own. I wish i could remember how he played it at the last concert i went to.
