So. I just signed on to MySpace to see this, under Featured Music:
Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds
Check out the exclusive MySpace Music Video Premiere of Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds performing "Eh Hee," live at Radio City Music Hall!
Are you KIDDING me? People STILL listen to Dave Matthews? Did you know this?? WHAT KIND OF WORLD DO WE LIVE IN WHERE THIS MAN IS STILL RELEVANT?!
Not to mention the fact that the name of the song is “Eh Hee.” EH HEE, PEOPLE. I’m seriously going to make a recording of me farting all over a snare drum, and I’m going to package it up really nice and sell it to all the fucking douchebags in the world that still listen to Dave Matthews.
I mean, seriously. Don’t you just want to jam a tennis ball in there and be like, “Stop it, okay? Just stop.”
Speaking of blasts from the past, Lizzard and I are currently working on re-collecting the entire Sweet Valley High book series, because it was formative in our respective childhoods, and oh, also—ruined our lives.
It gave me such unrealistic expectations—somehow I thought that when I got to high school, I would be blonde and blue-eyed (I’m Italian), rich (I grew up in a Nascar family) and beautiful (don’t even get me started) and that boys would be throwing themselves at my feet, and that I’d drive a convertible, and have a date every weekend night, and would have to make up my mind about which boy to go to the dance with. Yeah. NOT SO MUCH, SWEET VALLEY HIGH. NOT. SO. MUCH.
I remember in 7th grade, I got the series of three or four books where the twins are camp counselors via mail-order. Bear in mind that in 7th grade, I was only 11 years old while the other kids were 13, some nearly 14, as I had been pushed through the early schooling years. Not only did this fuck me up socially for a bit, but hi, PUBERTY? Nowhere to be found.
So there I am, a child when everyone else is growing into adults, and what does that get you in 7th grade? Relentlessly mocked. I remember one day that it was particularly bad, I was crying in a stall in the bathroom. Suddenly, I remembered that I had just gotten these books in the mail, and I cheered up instantly. Then I looked in the mirror, and realized what a nerd I truly was. And to this day, I’ve embraced it.
Plus I finally grew boobs, so that probably helped too.

After 30 years of curry and beer, I too have finally grown boobs. It's all about the perserverence.
I thought he died... strange. Dead or alive, it is sad his music lives on.
SVH FOREVER!!!
You can be Jessica to my Elizabeth!
are you serious? it is one thing if you don't care for the music. but it's another thing to totally trash-mouth them. this is why there are a variety of different types of music and bands...to please all the different people in the world. get off your high-horse. just because you dont like dave matthews doesn't mean he should just stop singing. sure, there are bands that i don't care for. but they are musicians and i RESPECT them and don't rip them a new one. so just go play with your new boobies.
wow... ignorant much?
Prepare to be bashed by about 20 fans. If you want to make a point in this world (or at least the adult one WE live in), ... you might want to take some lessons.
Sweet Valley High... And your dissing on Dave? ...now I'm really confused.
Um...sorry, but you sound lame as hell. Dave Matthews is one of the greatest singer, songwriters, guitarists of all time. Obviously you don't know good music when you hear it. That's OK though...go listen to your Nellie Furtado and when you're ready to have a discussion about real music, post again.
laaaaaaaame.
It's Dave Matthews Band.
there are 5 of them.
do your research before you bash something you know nothing about.
dave rocks, and dmb fans rock just as hard for backing them and their music up.
In response to all the brahs that feel the need to anonymously act like DM and to a lesser extent DMB was somehow conceived via virgin birth... This is all I have to say...
a real singer/songwriter/guitarist
that man would kill and eat Mr. Matthews and then promptly shred and/or wail on guitar for 20 minutes while singing about banging chicks... rock on Nuge... rock the fuck on... I too hope they're doing it for free...
When in the morning you take a look into the bathroom mirror, do you like what you see? I mean, you have boobies and all that but brains, hum, I would risk to say that you don't have any!
Seriously, it's OK if you don't like the men and his music, but at least have some respect.
Say whaaaat? No, don't say it!!
wow cimba. i really think that you need to seek out some serious help.
Really...you have a bad called Maxi Pads and you're dissing Dave? You sound like you're about 13 years old.
ewww, first off, the name of your band is gross. 2nd...how disrespectful is that song, "jonbenet?!" come on now. you have NO room talking about dave like that.
very freaky.
Dave is the man!! You are just naive & stupid!
I'm so sorry for you on so many levels. I can only hope one day you can open up and find DMB you will be a born again human being!
She just doesn't get it.
um... do you by any chance know or are related to a woman who calls herself "FIREWORKS"???
Maybe when she turns 14 she'll appreciate good music. LOL
fireworks...lol. i think fireworks has 1-up on this person though. she may be psycho, but she does likes dave.
This person clearly has poor taste in music. I would be bored with her in 5 minutes.
How can you talk about something you know nothing about? Dave Matthews Band consistently ranks as one of the top touring bands year after year. Maybe try a DMB show before you speak ignorantly of the music.
i looked for these supposed boobs that had grown
the search continues
and take it from someone who has been playing guitar almost half of his life that the entire band is ridiculously talented whether someone likes them or not.
you say party all the time...............then go to a dave show & see if you have any trouble getting drugs & having an awesome time. dave fans are known for having a great time and trust me, they do. or by party did you slam back some bud lights & smirnoff ices??
Do you think all the anonymous posts are the same dirty hippie?...."I know first I'll post under 'anonymous' then i'll make a post as 'uberDMBfan12' that'll show her"
Hi kT!!!
I feel sorry that you are 23 and so tired of life. Such a shame to throw it all way...Hand and feet are all alike, but fear(hate) divide us - DMB
Seek up little girl before you do become a danger to self or others.
actually justing, no.
Her post just happened to tumble into the Warehouse. The DMB's website...
what you are seeing is the responses of many, many of DMB's biggest fans...
someone found it, posted it in the forum...
gotta say thanks though... we are all getting a kick out of this...
http://www.warehouse.davematthewsband.com/
pretty much the worst place this could have ended up... in our hands.
that we are...
I don't get her... Who couldn't like dave?
even if she doesnt like dave, who cares at all, she's just all the way around an ignorant person who clearly can't let go of the past (7th grade was a loooong time ago)
hahaha, this makes me laugh. dmb fans are the best...whether they are dirty hippies or not.
that is all.
Maybe we could get you some recognition around a real music scene. How would you feel about the Maxipads opening up one or two shows for DMB.....nevermind, they appreciate open-minded musicians.
Stick a tennis ball in that!
oh my god, this was the best thing ever to wake up to on a saturday morning.
I HAVE BEEN CONVERTED!! EH HEE FOR EVERYONE!!!
amazing. i hate dave matthews.
"Best thing to ever wake up to"???
Wow, how sad for you.
honestly though, and i could care less about what you like for music-to each his own-but dmb is the type of band that you would have to go out and buy a cd to decide whether or not you like them, there are maybe 1 or 2 very old versions of songs that get played on the radio so i think its pretty funny you say you dont like something youve never tried. and there's plenty of things i dont like but I don't make a blog about, spend your time doing things you do like, like eating maxi pads.

Uhhh.... What is there to get? I mean sure his band is talented, but that doesn't account for lame-ass music and shitty singing that sounds like Aaron Neville with Downs Syndrome.
In fact, the only time I've ever heard Dave Matthews in the news that made me smile was when his tour bus dumped its toilets in Chicago on the open grate bridge over that tour boat.
DMB is extremely complex in their lyrics and music. Sure, you might listen to a song a few times and take it for face value. But if you strive to understand the deeper sense of the majority of their songs, you’ll find a meaningful message. In fact, the music has inspires fans all across the world with its layered implication. The music carries a lot of spiritual & political undertones as well as uplifting melodies.
The fans embrace the fact that every venue has a unique set list and the band will often play the songs differently; hence the huge following and taping culture.
Also, they attract incredibly talented musicians and support up & coming acts. ATO is a record label, founded by Dave Matthews, committed to artists and building their careers.
DMB donates and supports a number of charities. They will perform at benefit concerts and send proceeds to all types of non-profit organizations.
Dave himself is a funny, eccentric and entertaining guy. Google Davespeak and you’ll see what I mean.
Music is largely subjective, so I am not faulting those who do not like DMB, but maybe this will provide some reasoning for the band’s popularity and huge following.
Do Dave Matthews's fans suck worse than he does? Either way, both Matthews and fans suck. You, on the other hand don't suck.
Say hi to Chris for me.
KT...the more you keep talkin smack, the more the Warehouse community is making fun of you. You are a joke over there, so just do yourself a favor & stop already.
Knowing KT, I'm sure the more you're making fun of her, the more fun she's having laughing at you for defending a shitty band so reactively. This is hilarious.
Troll on.
Actually she can laugh all she wants. KT is obviously is an idiot with no ability to think outside her own little pathetic world. Closed-minded people suck.
Ok...back to my troll world of open-minded music and expression.
Well a girl like KT so desperately craves attention that any press is good press.
