Dave Matthews Band
Alltel Pavilion at Walnut Creek
Raleigh, NC

we had 3rd row seats in front of fonzie and roi. we brought our signs: "who's your daddy?" and "sexual tension tour dmb 2005" and "dance too much booty in the pants." the boys loved loved loved them. lots of dave, carter, butch, and stefan love for the signs. e gots dave love, and i got stefan love. lots of love.

Don’t Drink the Water -i love this for an openner! always good energy!
American Baby -wails from dave "i hope you stay american baby" over and over again. god that man knows how to yank your soul out. and i think it was during this song that dave closed his eyes and was strumming the guitar over by butch, making what i believe heather refers to as dave's sex/orgasm face. wow, was that a nice face.
Everyday -i LOVE this, love singing the hani hani's with the crowd. i love watching dave smile from the audience participation. i think he learned to do that from trey.
Hello Again -good song
#41 -holyshit, my first #41!!! i was so hoping for this! earlier in the day, terri got a beeper from panera bread with #41 on it, and we took it as a sign. terri and raliegh and #41 are a great match!
Hunger For The Great Light -we held our signs up after this and got devilish grins from dave. it may have been during this song that stefan and i had our long glance. i don't remember much about what song i was hearing when that happened.
Dream Girl -love love love what they are doing with this song!!!!!!!!! yeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Louisiana Bayou -so much fun!!!
Typical Situation -ooooh, what a surprise! i thjink it was my first time hearing that one too! i love how mellow it is, and then revs up for a little and then chills out again!
Steady As We Go -i tried to call billy for this, buy my phone wouldn't dial out. and the night before, my phone was dead, so i didn't get to make any more concert calls. booo. but a beautiful song.
Say Goodbye -AFUCKENGAIN???? are you kidding me? i teased elisa that it was because he was singing it for her. and boy did he ever look at her during that song. i'd like to think at one time i got some glances for my sign too. and i think i did, but it may have only been b/c he was wondering who that crazy girl with elisa was. i dont' care, i'll take any attention i can get from dave...yup, i'm desperate!
Smooth Rider -ooh, goodie, i had wanted to hear this one! rich, growly dave...hungry. wow, what a hornball...ashley needs to come and see him to save us all.
Crash-i always love a good crash. i know it's not cool to like it b/c it's a radio song, but it is a beautiful tune! so much passion, yearning, wanting, desiring. poor dave, missing his lady love.
Joy Ride [tease] -i COMPLETELY did not hear this. i heard the woos, i think b/c we were so close, the speakers didn't hit us acoustically for something being played so lightly. good thing, i would've freaked out.
Stand Up -it is a fun one to dance too.
All Along The Watchtower -i like this in the main show rather than the encore for some reason...b/c i am then guessing what it will be i think. i remember screaming "fire" and hearing roi and thinking "oh shit, it's almost done." and then chiding myself and enjoying the song again.

Encore:
You Might Die Trying -good. before starting this song, the boys came back out, we had our signs in place, getting our love again from the boys. fonzie mouthed "that's hot" to me, and i blushed b/c i am an ass. but i loved it.
Ants Marching -wooofuckenhoooo! ants is always so much fun, i love singing along and it ending on "lights down, you up and die" with carter beating the shit out of the drums. fonzie smiled at us, dave did, butch made sure we saw him as he exited off the opposite side of the stage in front of us and he waved. carter passed us by for drumsticks, hmph! we were standing on the chairs, a foot or so above everyone with "who's your daddy" and he missed us?????? dude needs glasses! but i was glowing after that. wow wow wow. it sure did make it hard to go back to real life after some mind blowing shows like that. wow wow wow!!!!

so the next day we woke up and went back to terri's where we chilled with ben, chel, and bill too adn watched napolean dynamite and sixteen candles. ben was so cute, sharing a pillow with me for a short time...i wanted to play with his beautiful blond curly locks like i do with evan. and chel is such a pretty young lady, i cannot believe how grown up she looks. poor chel, she's understanding all too well about the pdmb-d. terri's family is so sweet and beautiful! but i'm not surprised; terri is so sweet and beautiful too!
