I don't get it. What's the deal?

And what happened to that show...it was great! They should bring that back. And Storytellers.

yea thats a really goofy guitar... they use different side and back woods on the treble and bass sides to accentuate those notes differently- i would be curious to see how it sounds

:lol: That would be so funny ass shit... get two guys that look nothing like Dave and Tim and have them "play" along with the audio that they have for the whole show, and then people can get pissed for it not being Dave and Tim, I would laugh at that, hahaha.

storytellers was the greatest show that VH1 ever came up with, but they only showed it at like midnight, so not many people knew it was even on. They probably had like 50+ shows that I would want to watch: Dave Matthews/Tim Reynolds, Billy Joel, Tom Petty, Lenny Kravitz, Train/Fuel, Tom Waits, etc. It was such a good show. We should all write to VH1 to play the reruns of it.
