doubleB Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 Hey I just noticed that Bella Fleck is opening for DMB in Montreal... BUT NOT Ottawa? If that is the case that SUCKS!

gentlemonkey Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 nice linkage dave-o. i think dmb is trying to save futureman's ass after his tax evasion issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleB Posted February 26, 2002 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 sweet!!How come Dave's opening acts are always better than him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backbacon Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 FYI:It's spelled Bela (with an accente thing above the e going to the right - ?)It's pronounced: bay laIf anyone wants to hear my thoughts on that wanker Futureman, see the Phish mb:http://www.creationcenter.com/boards/Canadian_Phish_Messageboard/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 Speaking of Dave's openers... did anybody catch the Afro Celt Sound System on the last DMB tour? Very cool world beat sound with tons of exotic percussion instruments.I made a pretty low-fi bootleg of the show, anybody have a good one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleB Posted February 26, 2002 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 Yeah I caught the Afro Celt Sound System on the last tour... much more entertaining than DMB, as was Ben Harper as will be BELAI think it is Dave's way of saying sorry for becoming a sell out cheese curd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 I can't wait to see Victor Wooten in the flesh! My apologies to the banjo master for misspelling his name... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 Afro Celt kicked ten different types of ass with more ass lining up outside waiting to get kicked. If Bella is anything like them, then I'm set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 And by Bella I mean, of course, Bela. The extra 'l' stands for 'love'... or something.(Note to self: Read all the posts first...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giggles Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 Low Roller- Bela is inceadible...he is IMO and ALOT of others too, the greatest banjo player ever. He's absolutly crazy. His band also consists of Vic Wooten, thought by many to be the greatest bass player in the world. Trust me, when you see Vic play bass, you'll have seen things pulled off that you probably didn't believe possible. Jeff Coffin is amazing on sax and flute and futureman...well, he's just futureman. You will enjoy these world class musicians and futureman too.... Giggles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 Omigawd, I might actually have to go to Dave Matthews now. At least I'll have no problem getting out of the parking lot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 Well then, thanks Giggles. I froth in anticipation now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 In retrospect that last reply sounded really fucking cynical and insincere. It wasn't supposed to be. Why do I only see things clearly once I'm bHaIkGeHd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moe.ron Posted February 26, 2002 Report Share Posted February 26, 2002 velvet don't waste your time or money at the crappy shit centre to see DMB. you will regret it for sure. wait to see a full Bela show, 2 sets worth and save $60 in the process. Giggles is right on the money, a Bela fleck and the Flectones show will blow your mind.p.s. did anybody see the bela show at the Flynn a few years back with Fishman and Gordon on for the sinister minister encore? Blew my mind!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
