Free Music Review: Is It the Music or the Setting
Hit: 4 Stars

Recorded at Red Rocks in Morrison,Colorado on September 9-12,2005 the Dave Matthews Band gives the casual listener almost three hours of material from his end of tour stand. The recording does not capture a complete performance. For that one needs to get the Complete Weekend on the Rocks available from the band'd website. What is offered are highlights from the entire weekend and the two CD and DVD show does not disappoint.

Sonically, this show is similar to the show recorded at the Gorge but the song selection is better here. The high point is an incredible version of Louisiana Bayou featuring Robert Randolph and the rarely performed Smooth Rider. Bartender on the CD only is also great.

The DVD chooses ten performances some on and some not on the CD's. The picture and sound are excellent and Matthew's energy shines through on each song. The DVD runs about eighty-three minutes and is worth a look.

For about $25 dollars this set is well worth the price.

Weekend On The Rocks [live CD & DVD] Poster

Dave Matthews Band's WEEKEND ON THE ROCKS captures highlights from the band's four-night stand at one of the most magnificent venues in the country, Red Rocks Amphitheater. WEEKEND ON THE ROCKS includes numerous tracks that have never been released on previous DMB live recordings including songs from the band's most recent studio release STAND UP.

WEEKEND ON THE ROCKS is as a special value 2-CD/1-DVD set containing over 3 hours of music and video-recorded in stereo & 5.1 audio.

Recorded at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO September 9, 10, 11 & 12, 2005.


To loosely paraphrase the traditional Passover question: What makes this Dave Matthews live album different from the last one he recorded at Denver's Red Rocks amphitheater a decade previously? There's a savory cover of The Zombies' chestnut "Time of the Season" strategically frontloaded, but this edition revolves largely around the Stand Up album he was ostensibly promoting on this '05 tour stand at his beloved Rocks, as witnessed by focused renditions of the title track, "American Baby" and "Dream Girl" here. But as the set's workout of "Louisiana Bayou" forcefully argues, their sense of energetic economy (and occasional, timely politicking) infuses much of the rest of Matthews jamfest ethos with renewed muscular wallop as well. The presence of a horn section and guest keyboardist Butch Taylor on some tracks ups the ante considerably, though even core band renditions of staples like disc one's expansive closer "Bartender" seem charged with renewed passion. The running order here occasionally betrays the collection was edited from four nights and a considerably wider range of performances, but the included bonus DVD gratifyingly expands upon the audio rather than simply replicating it with complimentary performances of "Crash Into Me," "Recently" and "Jimi Thing." --Jerry McCulley
