This one cracks me up:

Perhaps try a show, it's freedom. I can understand why you hate us.

"And comparing him to Hitler? I think that's the rudest, most iggnorant thing I have ever heard. Hitler killed 6 million people. Dave makes 6 million people happy every year."

i helped build the stage theyre playing on.
i'm a little ashamed.

Hitler killed 6 million people.
I don't know why I feel compelled to debate historical death tolls on internet music fora, but Hitler killed a lot more than 6 million: http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/warstat1.htm#Hitler

the rhetorical function of "sorry" in this sentance would undergo a remarkable transformation if the speaker were omniscient

Even googling for "Dave Matthews band hated" only brings this thread up as #19. More effort required, I think

"DMB is the best band in existance - sorry
-- Adrian P (adria...), April 29th, 2006."

i can't help but ponder the idea that there IS a universe/multiverse where this statement is true, and how bad would it suck to live there?
just imagine, a world where ceaseless solos and careening fiddlin collide and never end!!!
it's almost more than i can bear to think about...

thanks gawd this is just a fabrication of a facsimile.
now, someone should post pics of kittens destroying a field of DMB fans...please?

i love DMB, sting and coldplay

ILM wouldn't know great music if it ripped off your head and shat down your windpipe

john clarkson, Sunday, 30 April 2006 22:51 (eighteen years ago) link

If that's what good music does, I think I'll stick with the non-decrapitating arts.

DMB is the best band.Ever. All of you haters probably listen to some rap shiat. Go to Bonnaroo and see all the greatness for yourself.

I have never met a DMB fan, ever. Nor have I ever had a discussion about this man's music. Weird how one can avoid something that inspires so much love/hate in millions. I have not been impressed with the few examples of his music that I've come across, but there's much more "worthy" things in life and music to hate.

Anyone who hates Dave Matthews obviously knows nothing about him or his music. Hes an amazing, talented, intellectual artist. His shows are are the best ever...the energy is awesome. Anyone who hates him and his band should go to a show, I bet you would change your mind real quick.DAVE MATTHEWS ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i've been to a dmb show.

it was horrible.

I'd just like to point out once more how impossibly perfect the 2000th post was.

The 2000th post was impossibly perfect.

It's like the punchline to the longest vaudeville setup ever. That it was in no way contrived gives it serious purchase on being the single most perfect thing ever. A serendipitous gift, borne on the warm cosmic cross-winds of Google.

Thank you ILM. Thank you.

I have never heard a full DMB song. I watched a "session" thru winamp but it was boring and I turned it off after a few minutes.

a.b. (alanbanana), Monday, 8 May 2006 07:40 (seventeen years ago) link

"Anyone who hates Dave Matthews obviously knows nothing about him or his music."

really? that's EXACTLY why i dislike him+his music.
cuz i've seen/heard too much.
why, this weekend, for instance, i had to explain (with some amount of tact, mind you) why it was i found him so bland to about 10 DMB fanatics whom were totally amazed that someone could acutally NOT enjoy that music. i went about it w/ an amazing degree of 'non-ass-holeishness' (for having drunk 1/5 of tequila, cannonballed w/ wine)
and found that the concept of not liking DMB is totally foreign to some folks...
i think i blew they're mind when they asked what i DID listen to, as they knew some of it, but found none of it appealing unless it somehow related back to DMB somehow.
it's like '6 degree of DMB' which is a tricky and evil thing to do to a drunk person...

eedd, Monday, 8 May 2006 09:44 (seventeen years ago) link

His songs suck. I don't care if his drummer and violinist are good. He writes bad songs.

jergins (jergins), Tuesday, 9 May 2006 05:57 (seventeen years ago) link

been lurking for a while and posting here for a few months and have not bothered to look at this thing, until tonight. the horror.

i will admit that my first concert ever was dave matthews band. i was 14. saw him at a hockey arena, shortly before their second big album came out. was very excited. oh boy, was he ever dreamy. especially in his crappy waffle-knit henleys and unwashed khakis, pre-MTV makeover and gigantic piles of tour revenue.

ten years later, and, er, yeah. remember: i was 14.

it's boring music for boring people.

there is a guy that plays cover songs on an acoustic guitar on the deck at this bar near where i live, that you have to walk past on the weekends to get anywhere. for some reason, probably because god hates me, i've run into him covering "ants marching" or "crash into me" almost every time i'm there. someday i'm going to do something awful to him, possibly involving angry, hungry dogs or big, sharp sticks. only one of us will come out of it alive.

Emily B (Emily B), Monday, 22 May 2006 04:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Just non-chalantly grab his guitar, smash it and hand it back to him. Like Belushi in Animal House.

I cant believe you people. DAVE MATTHEWS is a LORD of music. You all say Dave Matthews is Hitler but he is LORD of music! I know because I went to one of his concerts and I HEARD him play. Have you heard him play? No yuou havent!

believe it, frat boy!

wait, where is the dave=hitler thing?!

fer the record, if you live in the US, it's awfully hard to AVOID hearing him play...amazing isn't it?

hence my displeasure with his musick.

eedd, Thursday, 25 May 2006 18:19 (seventeen years ago) link

I've no idea whether DMB is a good band with a 'nice' sound or just a bunch of commercial hacks with cred amongst the student Ikea crowd. All I know is that Dave Matthews teamed up with the FBI to hunt down pirates, and that he only allows people to download full albums on Napster. Now there's nothing much wrong with chasing down pirates, but when you combine that with his undeniable commercial beat, the fact that he named the band after himself (narcissism?), and his attempts to force people to buy more of his music than they might be willing to, that indicates that he's a moneygrabbing tightfisted megalomaniac arsehole. I may be wrong, but that's what it seems like to me.

"eedd who in the hell do you hang out with?
-- jergins (jergin...), May 9th, 2006."

dunno how i missed this...
it was a Cinco De Mayo party thrown by a DMB obsessed grrl, whom i had an inkling of intrest in. suffice to say, that's all over and done and the party, while a drunkenly great success, was perhaps an eye-opening experience to those whom love the DMB while myself and my drinking partner explain (subtley, mind you)how utterly bland and uninspired DMB is to some. they were shocked and dismayed.
i was drunk and tryin to step lightly...

At first I thought you were talking about ACTUAL pirates and I suddenly had a lot more respect for Dave, what with picturing him in a British navy officer's uniform, crossing swords with bucaneers, and all that. But no.

Dave should start a literacy campaign. He would really be my hero then.
