Meh, could of used some SU songs we haven't heard live yet, but it'll do pig, it'll do.
5 out of 10 isn't bad.
4 of which we've already heard live versions of if you've listened to the Roseland show.
Im sure the others probably wont be played or they are still in the rehearsal stage for those songs. Who knows, who cares. It's more live DMB.
And Mike...
You dont like ANTS with the band. I love it
I love how
everybody is a critic now the new album is out.... Seems like no one is satisfied anymore or somebody is always complaining about a setlist, track listings, etc. Some of you have lost touch with what this band is.
No, not really. I just like what Tim brings to the table. Gives it a new textrure. Ants has been so overplayed(in fact the most played song) that is kind of boring with the band.
I don't know if that was directed at me but I'll answer anyway. I have pretty much held true to my opinion the last 4-5 years. I enjoy D&T more than I do DMB. It doesn't mean I don't like the band, it just means I enjoy things accousitcally more. Plus I think Dave's ability gets drowned out by the band some times. This is just not a DMB thing though. Nirvana Unplugged is my favorite of all their albums.
WAYG and Too Much have alwasy been among my 6-7 songs that I just don't like. Generally, some of the songs that were played on MTV a lot early in their career I still don't like(WWYS, SMTS,etc.) I used to dislike DMB until a friend played Two Step for me. I have only started getting into Too Much D&T recently. Watchtower I have always been kind of luke warm about. I don't dislike it, I just would prefer about 30 other songs. I have already explained my position on Ants.
As far as the new album, I have expressed my opinion a couple of times. I am not a huge fan of it. That's not to say I hate it, it might grow on me. But at this point, I like Everyday better.
I would have no problem with 2-3 songs being off of SU. 5 out of 10 is a little bit too much(no pun intended). That and when you compare the first Storytellers to this one, it is a huge drop off. I guess when I hear a new DMB storytellers I just get excited for it to be as good as the first one.
