New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I found this on nancies.org and have copied the post.
Take it as you will:
------------------------------------------------------------
Passing along rumors labeled as coming from "trustworthy source" leak.

Sounds like band is going to have close to a finished product by the time they open the tour. Danny Barnes and Tim "confirmed" to be on tracks:
7 new songs
As far as the new songs, Dave uses the baritone electric on a couple, the mini-guitar on a couple, at least one is "mellow", and Tim's on at least one.

5 road tested:
Cornbread*+
Idea of You
#27*
Dream So Real
Shotgun

Some other old songs reportedly slated for B-side or Bonus tracks: Full Band Eh Hee, Loving Wings, SUAD

*including Tim
+including Barnes
-----------------------------------------------------------------

I believe this only because it seems so obvious. Cornbread was played basically every single night, Idea of You and Shotgun are the only songs from the 2006 sessions that are still in (some-what constant)rotation, the band apparently loves ADSR, and #27 is a very good song, and Dave knows it.

Moreover, members of the band have been quoted discussing SUAD's return in the studio. Loving Wings would be a nice treat, and hopefully the rest of the band put their own influences on Eh Hee, rather than the full Dave version.

And as for the seven new songs, I am very pleased. I'd rather have more brand new material than a bunch of already played songs. The "B-Side," however, is a very nice treat.

Discuss.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

That sounds amazing if it's true. Glad to hear the old favorites are being put on the B-Sides so we get a full album full of new stuff. Of course, if it's true. I really find it hard to believe anything after all that TheseDaysContinue.org crap.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

i dont trust nancies, nothing good ever comes from there

cool if its true tho.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

nothing comes from there period. the place is empty anymore.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Everything is what I expected really other than the Danny Barnes. That would awesome if he was really on Cornbread. He pwned it in the summer.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

seems almost too obvious to believe.


I think the general rule of pre-album rumors is: always be skeptical.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

some of that is accurate, some of it is way off.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

i remember when nancies was somewhat respectable. im glad i came over here when i did though....


anyway you can dipict alittle as to what is true, and what isn't jake? i mean, if i were a betting man, id say the suad/loving wings info is false, as well as danny barnes being on the album.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

My guess is #27, Shotgun, and Cornbread are accurate. Tim and Barnes being in studio is accuarte. Probably a ADSR as well, but that he doesn't play any song on the baritone. Songs like Eh Hee, Loving Wings, and SUAD will be left off for new songs.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Its not accurate because Tim wont only be on 3 songs.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Can you help steer us in the right direction? I'm guessing the B-sides are fake, but what should be believe?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Completely made up I bet. Someone trying to give themselves an e-boner. Really? The 5 songs they played non-stop last summer are going to be on the album? No shit! I bet you had to call up your top connections for that one.

Steve Lillywhite isn't producing the new album. I got it from one of my sources.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Wrong. I have it from my VERY trustworthy sources that he IS the producer! AND (!!!!) .....















































... dave likes the underage poon. Truth... he says so in IOU.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

okay jake, spill it

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

um, have you been around at all in the last 8 years? 2000. 2004. heck, to some degree 2006.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

more to come...

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Holy Shit!

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

:thumbsup

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

really looking forward to the next ants podcast!!

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

:thumbsup :thumbsup :D

Can't wait for the next podcast!

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Jake, can we count on you in this Sunday/Monday?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I don't know yet

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

i love you Jake

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

yeah, this news is about 95% bs...

:(

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

My anticipation for this album is getting a bit out of hand. I can't begin to describe how stoked I am.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I just want to know if Tim's going to tour with them or not.


Jake if you know, could you please PM me if it's too secret to put out to the public.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Jake - do you have any ballpark on the release date, or maybe your own best guess??

before or after the summer tour?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

didn't you see the post from Fluffy?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I was told something like the album is coming out after the summer tour and they'll be doing a winter tour in support of it.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I'm not even 'in the know' but I'm telling you right now, based on what we've heard and how long it takes to get albums out there (unless you're the Raconteurs) with final touches, mixing, single release, promotion, etc., we won't get this album before the summer tour. I doubt we'll get it until after the summer tour.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Tim's on tour.

The album is 10000000000 miles away from being done.



my personal guess for a release date is October/November 2008, or Jan 2009.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

yea you're prbly spot on...

BUT i dunno if the new website starts up in April that would be TWO solid months with a release date at the end of May

does anyone remember how long the SU website was up until the album came out???

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

thanks Jake, you're the man!!!!

frick, Jan 2009 would absolutely suck

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Yes last night but it only said Tim's committed to dMb till the end of summer, that could only mean in the studio.

Until............


:eek :eek :eek

Jake is this without question?! I only have tickets for Toyota and decided to pass on Alpine again because me and my wife just can't afford it.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Tim's scheduled for many dates for the tour. That's the best I can say.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

This is like watching Lost. With every answer comes more questions. ARG!!!

:PULLING OUT HAIR:

P.S. Thanks for everything Jake (keep it comin)

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

And what do you think about that?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

As much as I hate waiting, this is (big picture) fantastic news. Imagine how much the songs are going to evolve over the Summer, especially with Tim around. This frees them up to perfect the songs in studio after the tour if they want. I'm all for them taking as long as they need, if the end result is something comparable with the Lillywhite 4.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

i sure hope its not true

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

thanks for the bit of info jake- much appriciated (even if it is spelled wrong?)

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

i hope this is true.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

damn straight

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

do you know about Toronto specifically? I don't mean to be a nag but the suspense is killing me!

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I've probably refreshed this thread 100 times this morning. Such a fucking loser.

*cuts wrists*

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

All I need to know is Tim going to be at....

Toyota?


Deer Creek?


Alpine?








Come on Jake!?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I REALLY need to know if Tim will be in Columbus. It is a factor in whether I go or not.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Wouldn't it be great if the band just posted a list of every date Tim's going to be at?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

/thread.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Most people are probably preparing the noose right now, but I actually see this as very, very good news. The guys aren't rushing this one :thumbsup

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I look at it this way: the longer they take, the less of a chance they'll rush things and mess up.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

^Exactly

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

It is sensible marketing. I'm surprised and even a little sceptical about this news considering both album sales and ticket sales have declined, this information would benefit ticket sales which open this Saturday.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

TR is playing at the 10k Lakes Festival on July 23-26, so he doubt he'll be making an appearance at DC on the 25/26.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

This is VERY good news.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I'm guessing the production and distribution of b-sides is one of the way off parts . . . I hope for otherwise, though

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Hmmmm......


Jake, Toyota, Deer Creek, and Alpine please?!

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Well, you're probably guaranteed to get him in the 'Nati at Riverbend...

i thought this was known already:confused

but :monkey anyway

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Im hoping this is the case.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

yay! i really don't want them to rush

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

what post? link?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

it still over in the general discussion forum...

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

i'm just interested. i don't think i've seen it. what thread?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

what is the post about? The TR3 thread?

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

:monkey :ggoat :hump

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

At what point to do stop saying they are taking their time and begin questioning their decision making skills?

They seem like the most indecisive band of all time.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Nooootttt the attitude any fans should have right about now.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

in this case, time can only help.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

They are my favorite band. I was just asking the question seeing as it has been almost 3 years since the last album was released. Many bands have made two solid albums in that time.

In addition, for what it is worth, a new album doesn't get me that exited. The tour gets me excited. I am more interested in what they create with new and old songs, respectively, live on the road.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Many bands don't tour every summer and every other winter.....

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

quoted for accuracy :rolleyes

also, jake...are YOU guesting on the album :eek

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

this just in..

Jesus is guesting on all songs on back up vocals and a magical harp made from the hair of the lovely ladies...

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

But I'm Jewish...I guess when I listen, I won't hear the Jesus parts...

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

You'll hear them, you just won't believe in them.

Wow this is a really odd combo of songs so far if it's true. I have no problem with it, but usually the album has only one or two themes, and this one seems to have quite a few.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Rumors, lol.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

perhaps we will get a d&t winter tour out of this one. ;)

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Dammit, tickets go on sale any moment and I need to know if Tim is guesting at these three places?????

Toyota?

Dkeer Creek?

Alpine?

Please Jake?!

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Why would they put up the new album website if the album is 9 months away? That makes no sense. This is the same time frame they began giving info into stand up and that was a May release. I think it is close and they are just going to spring the release date on everyone suddenly.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I really hope...

Eh Hee
A Dream So Real
Shotgun

...make the album. The rest should be new.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I heard that Tim was going to be at every show this summer, does anybody know if this is true? If so, does anybody know if we are going to be seeing rashawn back this summer? (I didnt see him in the video that just came out)

Side note: that is going to be nuts if we have : dave, carter, boyd, stefan, leroi, butch, rashawn, and tim all summer long.

should be interesting.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I really didnt want Eh Hee to be apart of it, but after hearing that clip on the video that Dave and Roi talk about, I feel that Eh Hee fits right in and if they can make it as complex as that clip sounds then Ill be happy with it.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

ok this is going to sound ridiculous, so to settle this:

my friend keeps insisting that it was announced that Willie Nelson was going to guest on a song on the new album, has anyone else heard this, or is my friend just BSing?

If you really look into it, i guess it could work since Willie is opening up a couple of shows for DMB this summer, but I just havent heard anything like this before.

(if he was guesing that would be pretty sweet)

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

No, it wouldn't be.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

that would suck if willie nelson guested

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

agreed, it would just be bad

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

:BANG willie nelson is a classic, it would be interesting to hear what he could add to say #27....

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

no definitely not

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I would shoot myself in the face... he already defiled Gravedigger

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5gTd2xMKHk

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Willie Nelson is an awful musician. He only gets credit for being "classic."

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

announced that willie will be on the new album? no that announcement hasn't happened

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

^
Hope to God that it doesn't ever get announced. The Gravedigger cover was a debacle, IMO. To each there own, but if I wanted to listen to bad singing I would record myself and play it back.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

I don't want any fucking b-sides or bonus tracks; make the album the way you intend it to be, that way you don't have to include left-overs.

Messes with the flow of an album I think.

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

Ya good for Willie for being around so long and what not but you gotta know when to peace. I mean how does anyone in the band or producer with god given music ability listen to the GD cover and say "Hey, that's some good shit! Let's bring em in for some guest vocals on the band's most anticipated album (IMO) and fuck up what could be an amazing album?"

He just wouldn't fit. I hope they understand what a piece of shit they put out in '05 and, judging by the short video, I think they know this needs to be a redemption album. Instead of some other name, be confident in the album and name the damn thing "Redemption". I hate when DMB, hell anyone, doesn't work to their FULL capacity.

Sorry for the rant........in summary Willie on new DMB album=no good lol

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

ah sorry for the scare people, my friend is a sped. he JUST heard about the GD cover now, and I guess misunderstood it as Wilie Nelson "worked with Dave Matthews recently" as opposed to just taking his song. So sorry for scaring the people who thought this might be plausible, no ring of truth here.

(I still think it could be interesting on #27 though, Willie could do what Morisette did with DDTW on BTCS and I am thinking we might see it in Louisville)

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

^Willie Nelson would take his 95 year old dick and rape whatever song he guested on...period

Re: New, Rather Bold Rumor
 

maybe a wee bit too far...


and i just read this entire thread...great fucking news :thumbsup.:bounce
