 VH1’s Storytellers features some of the best artists of all time, and Dave Matthews Band will be taping their June 11th episode tonight. Other famous musicians that have performed on VH1 Storytellers in the past have been Bruce Springsteen, Garth Brooks, James Taylor, and The Pretenders. Each episode is one hour long and include artists' first-hand stories about their songs and performances.
This will be Dave Matthews' second time appearing on VH1’s Storytellers and the band's first time. Dave Matthews appeared on VH1’s Storytellers with renowned guitarist Tim Reynolds back in 1999. During his previous appearance on Storytellers, Dave Matthews shared stories about Africa, the meaning of some of his more famous songs, and his favorite drink. "Crash into Me" is available on the VH1 Storytellers live release.
Only 10 questions will be permitted during the taping. Some questions fans have already sent in are; where will they all be in 5 yrs, their embarrassing moments on tour, and the most challenging aspect of being in the band. More typical questions will be, what is the meaning of some of the songs from the newly released Stand Up album.
The exact location has not been announced, but it is rumored to be at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Harvey Theatre. The venue can hold 870 people but only 500 guests will be invited to this intimate performance.
