Dave Matthews Band Fan Site

 I attended DMB’s second show at Wrigley Field after a friend out of the blue offered me a ticket. Attending a concert alone at Wrigley Field is a experience in itself, but to go see Dave there was truly special. The band didn’t repeat one song between the two shows at 1060 W. Addison Street. While I was jealous of those who got to here “Why I Am”, “Ants Marching”, and “Everyday” on Friday night, the show I attended had some truly amazing moments. Sitting in the upper deck I still had a great view of the stage. It was surreal seeing this huge concert stage set up at Wrigley Field with the L rolling by in the background. “Two Step” got the biggest crowd reaction of the night with everyone from the outfield to the upper deck bopping to Floyd Tinsley’s fiddle. Dave’s performance of “Christmas Song” to open the encore was bone-chillingly beautiful, while “Last Stop” finished the set. What a magical night.

Fresh off a well-reviewed show in Dallas, Texas at the Superpages.com Center, the Dave Matthews Band will play two shows this week before descending on Chicago for a historic weekend at Wrigley Field. DMB will play a concert Qwest Center in Omaha, Nebraska on Tuesday night before traveling to Saint Paul, Minnesota to rock Xcel Energy Center. After opening the 2010 NFL season on NBC where the band played “Why I Am” and Talking Heads classic “Burning Down the House”, Dave & the boys got a warm reception in Dallas. “Why I Am” and “You and I” received some of the best crowd reactions of the night. Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears will open for Dave Matthews in Omaha and Saint Paul, while Jason Mraz will get the party started for Dave’s Friday and Saturday night shows at Wrigley.
