Don't be jealous cause you didn't think to bring it back up :)

I thought it was more than a month ago...I was hoping a TR'er would remember it.
i forget when it was but it didnt really make sense.

I once read/heard in an interview with Dave that they talk about hot girls they see in the crowd.

That's almost the entire female audience. Dave Matthews Band has the hottest fans I've ever seen.

Yeah and that was MY joke jackasess so eat shit.

:wink:

I battle with floor wedges all the time, it takes time to get used to IEM's or PEM's (as they are more commonly known) but the benefit is a custom mix and the freedom to move around.

I've only used them once on stage, and the sound in the IEMs was very different than the stage sound. Not the mix, but just the overall quality of sound. I much prefer floor monitors.

Then you didn't have good earphones or a good IEM. Trust me, if they're of good quality, they're amazing to have.

Probably, they were pretty 'watery.' I was mic'd and my voice sounded like gargling. Plus, the feeling of being cut off from the stage. Now, just the drummer regularly used IEMs because giving him a monitor with his drum walls isn't practical.

Well, I've been doing audio and lighting for many, many years. You can get pretty much all of the band's equipment list from their site:

Shure is the leader, Senheiser, Nady, all junk.

The cheapest PEM from Shures is the PSM 200 and it's like 6 bills, but it's quality and you're not going to cut out.
