Am I missing any good D+T SBD recordings?

[jackdewey]

The pandemic is a great time to sort through downloads of the past years and see if we're missing anything in our respective collections. I'm trying to see if I'm missing any SBD/DSBD recordings of Dave and Tim outside of the ones that have been released as Live Trax or DMBLive releases over the years.

I've been searching in the Downloads section here on Ants and found most of these by searching for SBD or DSBD, but I only recently found a few of these since they did not come up in these searches, so I'm wondering if I'm missing anything else.

Here's what I have so far:

1993-05-27 - Jefferson Theatre - sbd+ v6
1993-07-26 - Benefit for Indians
1993-12-12 - Jefferson Theatre
1994-01-29 - Wetlands, NY
1994-02-21 - Birchmere
1996-02-16 - Sirius Middlebury
1997-01-30 - Providence, RI
1997-02-14 - Mobile, AL
1997-02-17 - Denver, CO
1997-02-20 - San Francisco, CA
1999-02-05 - Wallingford, CT
1999-03-25 - Buffalo, NY
2017-05-31 - Sirius Alpharetta, GA
2020-02-15 - Sirius Riviera Maya

These are good shows but dreamingtree.org is going to have a whole lot more I think. Also a ton of the 99 & 03 shows have excellent tapes. It's easier to get a good recording from D&T as opposed to the full band. Especially when they were playing smaller venues. I highly recommend 3-13 and 3-14 99. I know 3-13 is an official release now, but the tape is excellent as well.

3-14-99 is great show w/ a great SBD but I don’t have The files. Hopefully someone in this community does

Is the version up there the SBD? Looked like an AUD from the description?

It's not. It's better than a SBD. The music has the clarity of a SBD with the audience and life of an AUD.

Correct. It's an amazing, pristine, warm recording. One of my favorite tapes of all time. I thought it was a SBD for a long time, and then realized that's impossible with the range and depth it has.

Your lack of 2003 is disturbing. Crowds were mostly annoying, but Dave's vocals were at his peak. Some of my favorite shows are from that '03 D&T tour.

Dreamingtree.org doesn't have more shows than Ants. I have the master database from both sites. There are more individual torrents on dreamingtree (multiple uploads of the same exact torrent, different bitrates of the same show, ect) but Ants has more unique show dates than ANY other site. Also, every torrent on Ants has at least 2 permanent seeders. About half of the torrents and dreamingtree have zero seeders. And of those that do have seeders, I am the only seeder for about half of them. My point is, you will almost always have better luck finding and being able to download what you're looking for on Ants.
Edit: I just looked at this specific show on dreamingtree and I am the only seeder for it.

I had never heard the tape from the 3-14-99 show. Sounds amazing, thank y'all for the suggestion.

Thank you for the link and seeding. I will DL this today. I love this show so much. It’s such a great companion to 3-13-99

Glad you did!! It's hands down one of my all time favorites. Surprise A List guests, great set, great performances, great vibe.

To answer my own question, I went through all of the Dave & Tim shows available here on Ants and have found the following to be the best-sounding, IMHO. The quality of the two Italian shows at the top of the list sound like Live Trax releases! It's also kind of funny to hear Dave say a few sentences in Italian between songs

2017-04-06 - Padua, Italy
2017-04-07 - Milan, Italy
2017-03-26 - Amsterdam, Netherlands
2017-06-03 - Philadelphia, PA
2003-04-04 - Kenosha, WI
2003-04-01 - Mount Pleasant, MI
2005-10-28 - Las Vegas, NV
2006-10-27 - Las Vegas, NV
2003-03-28 - Winston-Salem, NC
2019-04-20 - Charleston, SC

You can find any of them by going to the downloads section and typing the show date as they are listed here.

The Italy shows are phenomenal for any Dave and Tim fan. Death on the High Seas is very good and sold me on that song.
