Yep, quite aware. Guess I misrepresented my feelings and thoughts.
I wish Dave and Tim played in the same manner they did back in the mid to late 90's when doing acoustic shows, and the same for the way the entire DMB is for full band shows.
Adding a trumpet is one thing. But the whole band sounds completely different now, and songs that I used to love - I wouldn't even want to hear live anymore, because they barely even resemble what they used to be.
Of course that's probably why I haven't paid for a ticket to go see them in 8 or 9 years.
But like I said in my previous post, I fully understand the change that bands go through. I fully understand them getting burned out on stuff that's been around for 15 to 20 years. I fully understand them wanting to branch into a completely different sound, just to stay fresh in their own heads.
That band from the mid 90's to the early 00's was one of my favorite bands, and those songs performed as they were back then (minus the terrible ladies) were some of my favorite songs. And Dave & Tim shows from the mid to late 90's are still some of my favorite shows to listen to and remember. But even Dave & Tim shows these days are a completely different animal ...and not from a zoo that I care to visit.
Oh well. End rant.
