I love taking long breaks from DMB and coming back to it.

I thought this was about the people on these boards.

Yeah, this topic of getting sick of DMB is pretty tired. I think we all have made one of these in the past few months.

You'll find your way back soon.

I listened to Ants Marching off UTTAD the other day.. it was like the first time i heard that version in forever.... it was awesome.

Don't listen to DMB AT ALL for like a week.... then when you're driving on the highway at night, blast halloween. That's good shit.

im not sick of them by any means, i still thoroughly enjoy their work, however, i find a lot of other artists grab my attention more. it goes in waves, i wont listen to dmb for a few months, then on a whim play an old album and im right back into them again. its really hard for me to continue listening to them for the same reason someone mentioned earlier, i havent enjoyed much of the new material they have put out recently. i know every single song inside and out, and it gets boring listening to the same thing over and over, despite the songs have more staying power, than 90% of the songs i have on my ipod.

I also go in phases. I've been listening to them for a long time but I'll take a month off here and there and listen to a totally different style of music and not attempt to play a dmb song on guitar. But what got me was when I went to the dave and tim show (my first dave and tim show....it was badass) at the aladdin theatre in Vegas was the songs off stand up. I don't really like those songs on the studio cd at all but liked them so much more with just those two playing them. it made me want to go home and learn those songs on guitar. but I always come back to dmb because they have that way of doing that with a lot of songs in my opinion.

i never really tired of them because i never voluntarily chose to listen to them. like a lot of people seem to get tired cuz they like chose an album or on their ipod or something for like a week or soemthing. anytime i listen it's typically just if a song comes up on shuffle.

The exception is anytime a new album comes up or when I first started listening to DMB. This way they always stay fresh cause if a song comes up i havent listened to it a billion times in the last few days. The other exception is live at luther college. Sometimes I will go straight to albums -> live at luther and put a song on. But Dave and Tim is a whole world in it's own then DMB in my opinion

. I could listen to those 2 forever.

edit: but about the breaks that is like the best way to do it if you are dmb-ed out. Another good thing is to listen to like... the total opposite of DMB for a while, something like rap or a total different style of music, and then when you come back it will be very refreshing and different sounding.

I go through phases where they are all I listen to. Just something rejuvenates my interest. Everytime I do take a break from them, they do something to suck me back it. New album, DM solo, D+T tour, Red Rocks, etc. I love them and there's nothing like listening to them after a week or two of not.

I usually just take breaks from listening to them also...like right now. But i know as soon as i see them at MSG im going to get sucked right back into them.

D/T tours always get me back into them at least a little bit.
