Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds






Sean and I drove to Denver Thursday night for the Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds concert. We were so excited, we hadn't seen Dave and Tim perform since 2003, when they played at West Point. Sean is a member of The Warehouse, DMB's fan club, so he was able to get VIP tickets for us. We had incredible seats, the best we've ever had, 9 rows back, center stage. (Although our Vegas seats were a close 2nd, considering the venue.) They played for over 3 hours! He played one of the two songs I really wanted to hear- Oh. Sean was able to name the song after the first chord and loved hearing Spoon, Funny the Way It Is, Dancing Nancies, and All Along the Watchtower. There were no cameras allowed at all, but Sean was able to get a few decent pictures on his phone. Although, he was told 3 times by security to put it away!

As always, it was fun to hear what Dave would talk about in between songs... He joked about how the altitude always gets him when he's here in Colorado. After one Miller Light, he's sh*tfaced. How dry it is here, and how he can only take one step at a time... He talked about his son loving Michael Jackson, how he does the thriller dance and loves to sing Beat It. (just like our boys...) He also talked about homeless people and those less fortunate, and how your feelings change when you look them in the eye.

We had so much fun, I can't wait until the next one...
