When it comes to DMB, I classify the songs as bad and less bad. Not my thing.

I saw Dave and Tim at University of Miami Ohio in 2003 and they killed it. Dancing Nancies is probably my favorite but I could turn on any of the first 5 studio albums and not miss a beat. The live albums are obviously great but the first really 3 studio albums were amazing.

ETA: Playlist from the Dave/Tim show I was in the 5th row for.
1. Bartender 12:10
2. Best Of What's Around 5:35
3. Grey Street 5:42
4. Everyday 8:26
5. When The World Ends 4:14
6. Big Eyed Fish 6:51
7. The Stone 9:03
8. Gravedigger 11:04
9. Jimi Thing > What Will Become Of Me 9:14
10. For The Beauty Of Wynona 5:20
11. Two Step 8:09
12. Stay Or Leave 5:01
13. Big Blast of Hot Air * 7:39
14. Grace Is Gone 5:13
15. Crash Into Me 7:06
16. Live in Our Graves 8:39
17. Blue Water 7:46
18. Where Are You Going 9:56
19. Don't Drink The Water 7:53
20. The Maker 4:59
21. Crush 11:07
22. As Far As We Can See * 9:04

I'm guessing because most everyone posting their favorites have a penis and 2 testicles.

Every girl I know loves that song though.

Really hard to narrow it down.
Say Goodbye is probably one of my favorites, but I also love Don't Drink the Water, Warehouse (live), and Everyday (live).

Can anybody hook me up with #41 from 4/20/2002?

I can't find it on YouTube anymore, all my old CD from tape trading days are back boxed up in storage and I can't torrent files at work.

I think it may have been on an official release somewhere along the line...

Would be cool if we could put together a ratings system and make a definitive list of Dave's best jams. I would love to have a spreadsheet to refer to if I wanted, say, a totally chill Satellite or a kickin Grey Street.

Maybe start with songs and then we try to find the best performances of them? I'd be happy to go back to listen to versions to pick haha
