And for people who don't get fuse (like me) it will be broadcasted on Hulu.com , and then hosted on there for a while. The 4 part documentary, however, I don't think will be on Hulu. |

I have a feeling it will surface on the internet somewhere...and I think it's the same doc that comes with the CD next Tuesday if you pre-ordered that package or whatever. |

This is great, I get fuse, which is awesome, but not in HD, which would be even more awesome. Between this, and the Today show, and some late night talk shows it looks like Tim will be getting some nice TV time. |

Apparently the Fuse doc is different than the one that comes with the CD, which is now on Hulu anyway. I'm sure the Fuse doc will come out online somehow too. |

If the documentary doesn't come out on Hulu.com , I bet it will turn up on dmbontv.com .
The documentary with the CD is about just Big Whiskey, and the Fuse one is their whole history. |

GREAT review of this gig from the NY Times. There is also a great photo that accompanies this piece, click the link at the bottom to see.
Weighing Public Problems and Personal Pleasures

By JON PARELES Published: June 2, 2009 Dave Matthews Band fans shouted “LeRoi! LeRoi!” on Monday night at the Beacon Theater, naming the longtime band member who wasn’t there.
LeRoi Moore, the saxophonist who was a founding member of the Dave Matthews Band, died last August, and his nickname, Grux, is memorialized in the title and songs of its new album, “Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King”; the album begins with “Grux,” featuring Mr. Moore’s saxophone. His death catalyzed the latest sea change in the band’s music, which has seesawed through the years between light-fingered, open-ended jams and beefier, more concise songs.
The band was in song mode at the Beacon Theater — a small room for a band that generally plays arenas — featuring material from its new album for a live telecast on the Fuse cable channel. It was also rocking out. In the touring band, the addition of Tim Reynolds on electric guitar, who has toured in a duo with Mr. Matthews, has transformed both new and old material.
In its longtime incarnation as a five-man group — with the unusual, largely unplugged lineup of acoustic guitar (Mr. Matthews), violin (Boyd Tinsley), saxophone (Mr. Moore), bass (Stefan Lessard) and drums (Carter Beauford) — the Dave Matthews Band built a pointillistic, syncopated sound. The music was lean and maneuverable, able to shift in moments from Celtic to jazz to folk-rock to acoustic funk; as if the counterpoint weren’t complex enough, the music moves freely in and out of odd meters.
The moods swerve too. In his lyrics and a voice that’s both robust and melancholy, Mr. Matthews ponders the gap between public problems and personal pleasures, particularly love and lust. (He sings about affectionate lovemaking more often than any other jam-band leader, and he has a larger female audience to show for it.) “Funny the Way It Is,” the song that started Monday’s three-hour set, juxtaposed joys and misfortunes: “On a soldier’s last breath his baby’s being born.”
In “Out of My Hands,” a song with sparse, two-note piano parts from the band’s 2005 album, “Stand Up,” Mr. Matthews sang about feeling insane, “looking down from here, out on my window ledge.” Yet the band rarely broods for long; the music stays brisk and upbeat.
But it has thickened lately. The current stage band includes a horn section — Rashawn Ross on trumpet, and Jeff Coffin on saxophones — along with Mr. Reynolds. More sidemen mean less spontaneity; although there were some extended solos, there was no uncharted, full-band improvisation.
Mr. Reynolds’s lead guitar was all over the arrangements: in swooping slide solos, in wailing hard-rock leads, in busy progressive-rock arpeggios. It was virtuosic, but it was also a tilt toward the conventional for a band whose distinctive eccentricities were already drawing stadium crowds.
Mr. Matthews is still no overbearing rock star. In the course of the set he cheerfully deprecated his voice (citing a cold), his piano playing and his dancing, a gawky but exuberant mixture of trucking and clog-dancing: “The reason that I dance,” he said, “is because I like to dance, not because I’m good at it.” His band’s music still dances too, only a little less strangely than before.

Nice review. They talked Tim up quite a bit!
I'm not sure where non-US folks can see this. Hopefully it, and the documentary Fuse is airing, will show up on Youtube at some point. |

If you can't get it on Hulu.com, I would start searching for Torrents. I am sure someone recorded it and put it up on the net (or will). I also won't be surprised if this gets a DVD/CD release like the Piedmont Park show 2 years ago. |

I am trying to find out about the documentary and whether it will be available to the public at some point. I would guess that that the concert will be available on DVD at some point.
If and when I find out any info I will make sure to post.
In the meanTIMe they are showing on Hulu.com if you can access that in Brazil. Here is the link:

I found a torrent that has a DVD version. Someone put together all 4 parts in High Quality and put it to a DVD menu and everything. However, you need a DVD-DL to get it all on one DVD. Here's the link:
http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=73233.
Make sure you register with thetradersden.com forum to view the page. There are a lot of seeders, so it shouldn't take too long to download it. And yes, it works. I burned it to a DVD-DL and played it on my DVD player. The audio and video is great. It was filmed by a longtime friend of DMB (and has recorded a lot of video and taken a lot of pictures for them). |
