    Dave Matthews Band treated festival-goers to a supercharged, electric set as the closer of the inaugural Mile High Music Festival, outside Denver, CO this past July. The Colorado release, Live at Mile High Music Festival, is now available for Pre-Order as a 3-CD set or as a digital download in MP3 or FLAC format.  

    Live at Mile High Music Festival is being offered at a reduced Pre-Order ONLY price of $17.99. We have created a commemorative longsleeve shirt and fleece beanie, both of which feature a special DMB Mile High festival logo and are being offered as bundle options with the Pre-Order.  The 2009 full-color calendar, featuring photographs of Dave Matthews Band from the 2008 summer tour, is also available for Pre-Order. The calendar is 12" x 12", made from 100% recycled materials and is offered as a bundle with the 3-CD set, shirt and beanie at a great value.

  • Refreshed from a week-long respite midway through the annual summer tour, Dave Matthews Band delivered an incendiary two and a half hour performance, including new covers unveiled earlier in the summer. Highlights of the Live at Mile High release include Jimi Thing, which features a commanding solo by Boyd and Dave’s entertaining scatting.  Carter’s thundering drum solo on Two Step, and Tim Reynolds’ solos on You Might Die Trying and Proudest Monkey are not to be missed.  The So Much To Say segue into Anyone Seen the Bridge?>Too Much>Ants Marching is a truly remarkable part of the Colorado show!  

    DMB’s cover of Peter Gabriel’s Sledgehammer will make its album debut on the Colorado release. From the crowd stirring opener, Don’t Drink the Water through the prized #41 jam, to the triple encore ending with Sly and the Family Stone’s Thank You (Falletin Me Be Mice Elf Agin), Live at Mile High Music Festival is a must-have for the DMB collection.
