amen
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

who gives a shit. I could care less if someone approves of my musical taste or not. I'm not losing sleep over what some jerk-off thinks of DMB.

checkii rocks.

But, also realize, no matter WHAT you like someone is gonna frown.
Alot of farts dont like zeppelin and hhendrix.
and we hate ashlee simpson and aaron carter.
And some people HATE pachelbel, vivaldi and mozart.
Some people HATE bela fleck.
But whatever, its human nature, if we all agreed on everything things would get boring.
the people who HATE dmb dont know what their missing, the best you can do if you are a friend is to show them something that they might think is impressive, other than that, just sit back and listen to some dmb and sing "people stare (dmb haters) ,and we (dmb lovers) just ignore them, just ignore..."

isnt MOPAC a frat :lol:
luv it hehe, never gonna get old...

and i think Maldito`Tuelho was also saying that he is surprised we even care what others think about our musical tastes since we have the chance to go experience a live dmb show and see why they are so damn good... thats my take at least

i dont think the general public doesnt listen to music is hear how impressive it is. most dont even think of music when they listen to music. It's rediculous, but as musicians, we of course have differente reference than "common" people. its all frames of reference.

they call DMB a frat band because back when they were starting and had moved out of the c-ville venues of coffee houses and such, they played frat houses all over the country. mostly in virginia and that area, and the southeast united states...

i dont get how thats something to make fun of, those are great venues... lots of guys in a fraternaty, and frat parties are huge on college campuses so you get a large portion of a universities population at a show.

id do it.
my bro wrote the constitution for his old fraternity. btw. they LOVED dmb.
but also, my brother likedDMB from before when he saw them in New Orleans in the early 90s

A LOT of music critiques (i.e. the world's Paula Abduls and Simon Cowells) knock Dave (amongst others) for singing in falsettos. I have heard that to be a common complaint along with some people claiming Dave's voice is annoying. I think the general consensus amongst DMB haters is that their music is "gay." I mean, why would have anything in a band except electric guitars with really heavy distortion? Just Kidding. Music like that isn't my cup of tea but people hate what they don't understand, and music as complex as that from the Dave Matthews Band frightens people. BTW, sorry man but its ok to pay no respect to Slipknot. They have no musical talent IMO. Sorry if anyone here likes Slipknot. :?

lol ,i dont like em. but some of there stuff is cool. guitar talent ::thumb up:: drummers ::thumb up::
style.. ::down::
warm fuzzy feeling from there music like with dave? none.

BTW- dave's guitar parts arent complex at all. the complexity is from carter, then leroi, next boyd, then stephan, then dave, (in that order)..
COMPLEX is tim reynolds, complex is flecktones.
ur right about the falsetto thing, good point, alot of people hate it

It's easy for people to label a band and then write them off without even checking out or understanding their music. It's pretty dumb but that's just the way people are. Even if I don't like a band, I will still give them respect for playing their own music, writing their own stuff, and playing instruments.

that's the same thing that came into my head. AS much as I think Ashlee simpson is a complete cum dumpster, She makes fuckign milliomns of girls happy. Who am I to really hate on that for them. Don't get me wrong, I will at all oppotrunities humiliate someone who likes ashlee, so I understand that some people just can't hold back on hating dave. It's just not their cup of tea, and they like me, find joy in bashing others.
wow, my train of thought derailed on this one :lol:
