Dave Matthews Band Fan Site

There is a short statement on the Dave Matthews Band Wikipedia page, which reads: “In an interview with Rolling Stone Argentina, Dave Matthews claimed that the band’s next album is currently scheduled to be released in early 2009.”  If this is true, it would be their first album in over a year, and the first since the passing of founding member Leroi Moore.  Longtime fans will likely notice his absence, but surely the Dave Matthews Band will produce yet another great album.  Moore passed away last summer, after an ATV accident.  The band finished their tour and are apparently working on this new album.  We’re looking forward to it!

Here’s the latest on Dave Matthews: nothing. Dave Matthews and his superband have gone on somewhat of a hiatus as of late, not even posting news on their own website. Though they have reminded people to vote for the upcoming presidential election, they have not reminded the world that they are still a band for quite some time. There’s been no tour or new studio releases as of lately. Perhaps it is just the calm of the storm before a new batch of acoustic guitar/falsetto voice songs hits the market. Dave Matthews Band fans can only hope and wait.

Here’s a trip down memory lane.

Geez I dont remember this video being so awful, do you?

Anyways, there’s no real news in the Dave Matthews world as of late.

The band wanted to make sure you registered to vote but the deadline has already passed so nevermind. In some states there is a grace period that extends until the 21st but you have to cast your ballot when you register.

Ok, Dave Matthews Band is a great band. But their concerts would be SO much better if I wasnt surrounded by people like this:

Agreed?
