the 90's sound is acoustic guitar and drum solo , as stated by Steve Lillywhite. That is why I'm excited with fingers crossed. If they get that right I'm sure everything and everyone else will be fine. |
Re: DMB - January 2012 Studio Sessions
I'm one of a new era I guess. Been to 8 full band shows, but they were all in 2010/2011 so I never got to see Leroi. I wish I could have seen him at least once. But I have no problem with Jeff, I'm just glad they are all in the studio. But I am more easily pleased than most others here, hahaha

Roi was soulful and from his heart. I think some of his troubled soul that dave has mentioned at times about Roi, it sang from his sax on stage. Jeff is in your face and get you riled up dancing sax playing but we all know that Jeff can do soulful playing. There should be no way of us complaining about Jeff because ( we all obv miss the presence of Roi and his love for music), the band could of easily fell apart and never did a live concert again after that but jeff and rashawn stepped in and are amazing musicians. Be grateful for what we are able to hear and see... and now Lillywhite is back :)

I'm not going to get into the finer points of the Jeff vs. Roi argument.. I'll just say that Jeff isn't Roi and he hasn't tried to be and I don't think he should. Trying to emulate Roi as a player would just be a slap in the face to how unique Roi's sound was, and wouldn't solve the 'but he's not Roi' problem people have when listening to post 2008 DMB. For the life of me, I am just baffled at how much people who are still around and into the band to go backwards. I get the song quality issue of the 2000's but just in terms of sound, they're not going back and if it bothers one that much, I don't understand why one would still stick around.

I've also said many times that Dave is simply a lazy musician. His guitar work in the 90's was flat out awesome whether it be live or written. He's using tim as a crutch way too much and is usually turned down in the live mix. i want to see him get more aggressive again because let's face it, we love alot of dmb's music because of the riffs he wrote. |

No doubt Dave had become lazy. Something I wonder about: in the early days he had people like Ross Hoffman and John D'Earth who really encouraged and pushed him as a songwriter. How necessary we're such individuals to Dave's songwriting? I'd like to think he doesn't necessarily need those guiding forces because he wrote some great songs on BTCS and tLWS without them. But ever since then we all can see the struggle to get even a half-decent song out. |

Great thought! Totally agree here. I also think he should live in a cabin, where it's cold outside and the fire's bright.....would love a subtle love/one night stand song type ala Say Goodbye. That song is brilliant. Hoping for Crash Vol II |

I think Roi disappeared a bit from 05-07 because he was the one who was pissed with the band's effort in the studio, and as we all know, these years were when all the problems in the band really got awful. Roi was such a huge part of the rejuvenation, and it really was showing in his playing in june of 08, like people have said, a great month for the band, and Roi was playing the best he had in a long, long time.
