  • DMB Promo Box Set
    DMB Promo Box set Live Trax Vol. 1 CD (12.8.1998) 2 CD The second night of a two night stand at the Centrum in Worcester, MA. According to crew reports, these were shows that showcased a period of musical growth for the band in which set list standards transcended into virtually new songs. Live Trax Vol. 2 CD (9.12.2004) 2 CD The show took place in the Polo Fields of Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, CA and was a benefit concert for Bay Area Charities. From the moment the band hit the stage, the concert immediately became one of the highlights of Dave Matthews Band's career. Carlos Santana sits in as a special guest for several songs, including the recently written Sugar Will. The 3 CD set also features two additional previously unreleased songs, Joyride and Hello Again. Live Trax Vol. 3 CD (8.27.2000) 3 CD This was the third show in a three-night stand at the Meadows in Hartford, CT, a show that many fans have listed in their top 5 due to the choice set list and the energy with which the songs were played that summer evening. Live Trax Volume 4 CD (4.30.1996) 4 CD Classic Amphitheatre, Richmond, VA was the show that started the Crash tour. In addition to hearing many new songs for the first time, fans in attendance were the first to hear the new sound system which DMB had recently inherited from the Grateful Dead. This sound system helped to take DMB's live show experience to the next level.
