But not DMB. I've tried; it's not like "oh, that's just their popular stuff, you'd really like the deeper cuts on the album." Nope, every single thing I've ever heard by these guys makes me cringe.
Is there a rating lower than "1?"
Whew, it's over and I survived it. At least I get a reward - some Warren Zevon to get that taste outta my mouth... |

No way, dude... the bari sax line in "So Much to Say" (1st song on Crash) is wicked funky. |

I have seen them ten times in concert and they are always very high energy. If you are not into the jam band style then I could see how you would find it boring since they do tend to add to their songs live.
Thanks for playing some Dave.  |

I LOVE this song.
They played this at Woodstock 99 in Rome, NY
It was freakin' HOT weather. like 99° on an airport strip.
Mixed in with several hundred thousand people. OMG!
I'll never forget that. It was the best show of the day.

Great high energy song. I love their sound, combining acoustic guitar, sax and violin.

Good song, but the version off Remember Two Things is way better.
