Sooooo, glasses guy is me. Couple things: 1) That’s the best I can dance. Then and now. White man curse. 2) can’t for the LIFE of me remember who the girl is. 3)camera is on me because I would get into the shows early and help set up to avoid paying cover (and get beer before I turned 21, think the statute of limitations is up on that). Native Charlottesville-ian, got to know the band early and would see them every chance I could. Could see Tim Reynolds and TR3 at Jokers as well with only 15-20 people in there. Full circle, my son is a protege of John Dearth and gets to play with him (pre-COVID) at Miller’s, where so much of the DMB ethos started.

His vocals are clearly blown here. He’s not 100 percent. And I Could be wrong I suppose, but David never had any consistent vocal training. His voice changes over the years have long been talked about. And everybody has their favorite era. Many will say they like his voice the most between 91 and 94. Some will say 98-2000. But nobody believes it has gotten better or worse, it has just been a natural progression of change for dave. The only thing one could point too that could of had a big effect on his vocals was when he stopped smoking around 2005. For some singers, in the immediate year or two after quitting, their vocals actually suffer. But the main thing that is noticeable today, and for prob the last 10 years or so, is stamina. His vocals will get blown out, and it is tougher these days for him to recover. So he may go an entire show with rough vocals. But over the last couple years it seems like he is creating sets that don’t ruin his vocals. I. E hasn’t played time bomb for quite some time. He has been a little more cautious in that respect lately.

@@vn8375 I dont think its songs with high vocal parts/screaming parts that slowly degraded his voice, i think its stuff like 3:20 in this video here he used to do a lot in his early career. Yeah I guess it's still "screaming" but it's bad form screaming. His screaming in songs like bartender in the early 2000s are actually with good form. Both sound badass but one will destroy your voice.

goes to show Dave started with serious world class talent behind him. Not to take anything away from Dave, he had the imaginative quirky songwriting. You wouldn’t have expected the musicians behind him to really have gotten it either considering the bands they could have chosen to join perhaps. The combination worked. To this day The Dave Matthews Band are STILL in their own niche. The Rock HOF nominating is a joke, and I’m sure they’ll get in eventually, would still be nice to see them get that recognition soon!
