This "show" is actually more of a mixtape of early performances including several rarities: People People, Exodus, a jam known as the Water Drum Jam, and Screaming From the Minarets with an actual scream at the beginning.

This show has my favorite performance of Blue Water.

This is an older compilation featuring a wide range of songs from a solo Dave Matthews demo from 1989 to Dave & Tim songs from 1999 and various guest spots and rare songs from all years in between. The inspiration for this one came from Under The Table And Dreaming. 

This show, on Halloween, features the very first performance of Halloween.

This is a good show from an unknown venue in Charlotte, NC.

This show contains the debut performances of Crash Into Me, Too Much, and the first (and one of the only) full band performance(s) of Deed is Done.

This is for a full band demo recorded at Ardent Studios, in Memphis, TN, sometime in June of 1992.  It includes studio versions of Spotlight and True Reflections.

One of the few recordings in existence from the Eastern Standard Restaurant.

This is a good show with a bad recording.  It contains the first known Spotlight and with that in mind I wanted to use a cover with lights.  Hopefully this works. Ants Marching is also said to debut on this date as 'No New Directions' but its not included with the recording that currently exists.

This compilation includes live soundboard (!) recordings of Dave & Tim.  Most of these are from '97-99 but it also has a few from as early as 1994 and the Everyday songs are from the Dave solo radio shows from 2001.

The image used for this one was borrowed from Errnine's Dave Matthews Band Cover Art .

This includes Cigarette Lit, Everyday, and One Sweet World.  Cigarette Lit is a song that borrows the main riff from a DMB song played only a total of four times back in 95-96.  Cigarette Lit itself has never been played in full, and was only partially played one time in 2001.

Tracklist: 1)  Everyday 2)  I Did It 3)  When the World Ends These tracks were distributed as .mp3 only.

The full demo of this never circulated as far as I'm aware but I wanted to make a cover for the extremely short and very poor sounding audio files that were supposedly recorded over a telephone. The artwork features Water Lilies, 1906, by Claude Monet.

There are some subtle changes from the released album ("garden hose" lyrics on Seven and the barking dogs on Alligator Pie are two examples) that make for an interesting listen. 

This was a good show that includes a partial full band Blue Water.

This show includes the versions of Halloween and AATW that were issued on the Recently EP.  It also marks the end of DMB's weekly performances at Trax that started in October of 1991, hence the picture of Trax being demolished.

If you haven't heard this show, Dave looses is cool during the middle of AATW when some drunken idiot comes on stage.  I thought the beer bottles made for an appropriate cover.

This show includes the debut and also the second performance of Granny.  I thought rocking chairs were appropriate.

This short demo of live performances was supposedly recorded to be shopped around to various record labels.  The venue is unknown and the date is just a guess.
