Our pig (the dbtp logo) may not seem as cute, but he is mysterious, creative, and cool, much like Dave Matthews. See, creativity, and imagination can take you anywhere you want to go, like an artist, or a musician, there are no limitations.Â
Dave Matthews Band has been a part of my life pretty much since around the time that they started to really made a name for themselves in 93-94, around the time of “Under the Table and Dreaming”. That album was enough to get me hooked, but then listening to “Live at Red Rocks” spurred that obsession on even more. While getting to an actual show did not happen until a few years later, that did not change my growing love for the band. Getting to that first show was a bit of a challenge, you know, being a college student and basically being poor, but looking back on that time now I wish I had gotten to a show sooner. For those that have experienced DMB live, and there are many of you, there is without question nothing else like it.
In any case despite my personal DMB history, dontburnthepig.org, named after the defunct song which is now simply “Pig” is the fan site I created and launched in September of 2006 for all things Dave Matthews Band.
When we originally launched dontburthepig.org (dbtp.org for short) the basic concept was to share DMB news, which we still do, and share my DMB fandom with other fans. I love Dave Matthews Band and want to share that with other fans. As time progressed so has the website and it has slowly become an archive for all things DMB. What you see here on the website and what we still have archived of-site is mind boggling.
In 2013, we launched a brand-new platform and layout for dbtp.org, which we hope you enjoy. We love sharing DMB with you and work hard to improve and add new features to the website every year.
Now in 2024 we have progress the site further to social media and a forum to encourage more user fan interaction.
Without your support, this website would not be possible to run. So, explore dontburnthepig.org and have fun.
