Dave Matthews talks about 2011

In a recent interview with billboard.com, Dave Matthews opened up about taking a break from touring in 2011, something that he had been contemplating for some time, but it was never the "right time".

"I certainly feel an obligation to the people that support the uniqueness of the band's career and have made it...sort of habitual or a moment of quite a few people's summers, it would be, I guess, ungrateful to not say everything. I felt that about everyone me as well, the crew and the band and the people that work with us. I wanted to give everyone a long heads-up."

Tables Turned Again
As I prepare for my first night out without my 3 month old daughter, I'm contemplating the enormous emotional strength required in the task of letting go. Just the thought of a few hours away from her raises all sorts of unsettling emotions even though I know how important a break can be for my sanity. It's interesting that this is my current mind-set in the wake of the Dave Matthews Band's announcement to take the year off from touring in 2011, but by now I've come to expect these synchronistic occurrences. And I know that I'm not the only one struggling to process the group's latest news.

Sweet For Certain: In Memory of Satu Harris (1971-2010)
For days, I've been struggling with whether to write this article. On the one hand, I'm not the right person to do it because I never had the pleasure of meeting Satu Harris, but even so, her name keeps circling through my consciousness, making it clear that I wouldn't be able to write an honest article about anything else. So, please forgive my lack of first-hand knowledge about this amazing and inspiring girl, who has left a gaping whole in the hearts of the Dave Matthews Band community since her tragic and untimely death this May.

Hunger For the Great Light
As I'm on my second day without my super delicious and creamy Dunkin' Donuts iced coffee, I'm considering the psychology of addictions. Why is it that the best tasting foods and drinks are usually the ones that end up causing some kind of negative reaction (e.g. weight gain, gastrointestinal troubles, headaches, etc.)? Why do “comfort foods” make our bodies anything but comfortable? Is it the same reason that we sometimes gravitate towards people who don't meet our emotional needs? Are we destined to continuously attract that which doesn't serve us in the long run?

Anyone Other Than Me

 

In my last article for Don't Burn The Pig, I talked about certain synchronistic events related to Dave Matthews Band. As I was pondering what to write about this week, I got the distinct feeling that I was not finished with that topic. I started to think about synchronicity and how it affects the creative process. Like many true fans, I am ever curious about Dave's tricks of the trade. How does he decide what to write about? Does he have certain rituals that he relies on for inspiration? Are there things that have spontaneously happened in his life, which ended up being the basis for some of our favorite tracks?
