Dave Matthews Band Facebook<\/a><\/p>\nDave Matthews Band returned the stage last night at Darien Lake Amphitheater in Darien Center, NY. The group had been off since Saturday because Tuesday\u2019s show at Jones Beach was postponed due to weather considerations until July 29.<\/p>\n
During DMB\u2019s weekend performances in Saratoga, the group was joined by violin Jake Renick Simpson for much of the night. On both Friday and Saturday Simpson contributed to nine songs. On Wednesday at Darien Lake the total moved up to ten as Simpson found himself contributing to a song in the slot that traditionally presents a solo Matthews selection. Simpson appeared for \u201cEveryday,\u201d then remained through the end of the set, appearing on \u201cAmerican Baby,\u201d \u201cJimi Thing, \u201cSatellite,\u201d \u201cPantala Naga Pampa,\u201d \u201cRapunzel,\u201d \u201cTripping Billies\u201d and \u201cDon\u2019t Drink the Water.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then, when Matthews appeared to open the encore, rather than doing so by himself, he brought out the fiddle player. The two musicians then performed \u201cPaper Town\u201d a new original that Matthews wrote for the documentary of the same name. He debuted the song on May 16 and every version has had a guest violin player, first Casey Driessen, then Tatiana Hargreaves (6\/5\/26), followed by Driessen again on 6\/10\/26 and now Simpson.<\/p>\n
Last night\u2019s show also included a rarity, as the group performed \u201cLong Black Veil for the first time since 9\/23\/23, a span of 140 shows. Prior to that appearance the song had last surfaced on 6\/17\/17. The tune was originally recorded by Lefty Frizzell, although it became a Johnny Cash live staple over the years.<\/p>\n
Dave Matthews Band\u2019s next show is tomorrow in Burgettstown, PA.<\/p>\n
