Two weeks ago, Todd and I had the pleasure of attending a backyard BBQ at the home of Kim and Rob Cavallo, producer of the Dave Matthews Band album Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King, among others.
The evening’s entertainment was my beloved Dave Matthews.
No photos were allowed at the event, but the following shots were taken by professionals.
We were two of roughly 300 people, so needless to say, it was a magical evening.
Obviously no photos of Dave’s face were allowed either, but I happen to think this one is outstanding!
For any of you who may be wondering what he played, here is the set list:
Bartender
Stay or Leave
Crush
Baby Blue
Lying in the Hands of God
You and Me
Little Red Bird
Don’t Drink the Water
Rye Whiskey
Gravedigger
Eh-hee
The Needle and the Damage Done (Neil Young)
Sadly, there was no encore, but I was floating on air anyway.
All ticket proceeds went to support the Tuition Assistance Fund at Heschel West Day School in Agoura, CA.
