With the new pre order/bonus disc situation, i think this is even more likely.

Hello Again & Joy Ride will be on Stand Up.

Sugar Will, Crazy Easy, and GGT will be on the other side or on the warehouse disc.

How can they not be?! Can you really see them releasing ANOTHER version of OSW with all this new material/buzz about the new album?

I'm disappointed, and I'm generally an enthusiastic adopter of new material, including Busted Stuff and Everyday (even if the appeal lessens over time).

I listened to it once last night, and I don't have any desire to play it again.

If Dave shit a cup of Aids.... Im sure most of you would drink it.

Im waiting till May, listen to the album a couple times and then form an opinion.

I hope it's not another Everyday <-------------- EXTREME SARCASM.

The song is growing on me. I can not wait though until it's on the radio so we can get an MP3 that will not have that douchebag talking throughout the song.

I am wondering about this bonus disc. B sides are usually studio tracks that just didn't make the album. The live shit better not be an OSW, WWYS, Crash, and Billies from the '04 tour or I will be pissed. I want some new shit dammit.

My friend (Mangaer of Graham Colton,Cracker etc..) had told me that usually songs #2 & #7 are the most popular songs on a CD. Im not sure if he meant that they were suitable for the radio or that the producer thought that these songs were the strongest. Anyone else know of this?

Remember, WAYG was a "hit single" and featured in Mr. Deeds.

That singles are often marketed heavily but may not always be the "best" track on a CD.

The new single isn't my cup of tea, but I've really never been let down by a DMB release, except for Everday which took me a few months and many, many listens to appreciate.

I thought Everyday was Fresh, and it had a good 5 songs that I really enjoyed.

I haven't even really listened to AB yet.

You're not missing anything! J/K :wink:

What is interesting to me is the cover art, the Firedancer gets it's due.

I am surprised you guys dont like Everyday & busted stuff so bad....they are great albums just not DMB's best. Songs like WTWE, So Right, Space Between, Grey Street, Bartender, Raven, YNK (to name a few) are awesome



American baby is probably a marketing decision to release first because is has radio appeal while still having a dave mathews band feel. It's new stuff, it cant sound excately the same as the old stuff
