Dave Matthews Band - Opening Jam Live Performance from Continental Airlines Arena
In September 1999, the Dave Matthews Band was riding high on the success of their latest studio effort, 'Before These Crowded Streets', which had been released earlier that year. This album marked a significant evolution in their sound, incorporating more complex arrangements and introspective lyrics. The live recording at the Continental Airlines Arena captured the band at a pivotal moment, just before they became a defining force in the late '90s music scene. Interestingly, this performance was also featured in the PBS special 'Listener Supported', highlighting their vibrant live energy that fans adore. Not only did the concert showcase their musical prowess, but it also brought attention to the band's commitment to live performance, which has become a hallmark of their career. Their improvisational style during this jam hints at the deep connection they share with their audience, making each performance truly unique.
