After years of the same layout used for the Songs page, which allows fans to find the lyrics and tabs to Dave Matthews Band songs quickly and easily, we have enhanced it to make it not only more visually pleasing, but a whole lot easier to use too. We have added a drop-down list that has all songs in alphabetical order, and if lists aren’t your thing, you can always scroll down the list, faster and easier than ever before! The page is up and running, and can be accessed using the menu (by going to songs), or by clicking here: http://www.dmbfansite.org/songs.php

In an exciting two-part contest, the Official Dave Matthews Band site is tackling social networking. It asks those who enter to start a Facebook Event for a Advanced Big Whiskey Listening Party between May 23 and May 25. The top 100 events with the most members will then win an advanced (but watermarked) copy of the newest Dave Matthews Band album, ‘Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King,’ thus making the 100 possible events a reality. Then, those who are hosting are encouraged to record their party, and the host of the party with the most people attending, best theme, and most originality will then “win a trip to meet Dave Matthews and see DMB perform live from the front row at Cruzan Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach, FL on Saturday, August 15th!” Entries are due May 12, so there isn’t much time, and if you are entering, good luck!
