Dave Matthews Band Fan Site

The year 2005 was a hectic year in the calendar of the South African music legend, Dave Matthews. In the early part of 2005, Dave Matthews and his band launched a website www.dmbnewstudioalbum.com that had the video footage as well as the updates pertaining to the ongoing album. The spring of 2005 saw Dave Matthews Band embark on their first trip to Australia where they performed in four theater shows. This was followed by the DMB performing in the 36th New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and they released their hit sixth studio album, Stand Up in May 2005.

The Dave Matthews Band hosted a two day Island Getaway festival at Randall Island in New York. Their summer tour of 2005 was considered to be an epic and was the most admired shows of the Dave Matthews Band’s career thus far as it had special lighting and stage designs by the acclaimed director Fenton Williams. DMB’s Bama Works Village Recovery Fund partnered with CARE in 2005 to bring in happiness to the lives of the Tsunami affected people in Sri Lanka. The Dave Matthews Band also performed in a concert to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. The band also came up with many CD releases in the year 2005.

The performance of the Dave Matthew band at the Obama rally stands cancelled and the details are not given out. Last month it was announced that the Dave Matthews band is going to perform in the rally for Barack Obama in Ohio University on 2nd March. The announcement of this program was made at the student Senate meeting of Ohio University by the Vice President of the Student body. The Senators were assembled there for the impeachment of the Vice President. It has been reported that Kent Smith, the Vice President of the student body made an announcement about the rally and the performance by Dave Matthews before his impeachment. However, he said that the contract is not yet signed by the university members and the production company in Chicago.
The rally which was to be held at the Convocation Center of Ohio University got cancelled due to unknown reason. It was already announced that Obama will not be present for this rally. The program boasted about the presence of Dave Matthews’s band as well as the presence of a prominent speaker. Dave Matthews gave his last performance in a college in the November of 2007 at the Military Academy of U.S. The Obama Rally itself has been officially cancelled now, to the disappointment of the Dave fans.
