Summary: A look into the life of the DMB
Review: An exciting look into the DMB, this book seems to be almost a Cliffs Notes version of another recently released book, "Dave Matthews Band: Step Into The Light". While having a few unique facts here and there that make the book a keeper, the majority of it is a look at where the band came from, very in-depth looks at their albums, and has a nice set of DMB pictures.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great book to curl up on the couch with!
Review: All of you who bashed this book should be ashamed of yourselves! This book is great! I believe I read it in one setting! I liked that it was easy to read and didn't contain a lot of musical jargon (that some of us know nothing about!) I thought that Nevin did a great job without doing an interview himself. I, personally don't feel like getting on the internet to look up every interview, so I found it very convienent. I am also glad that there is another piece of literature out there about my favorite band! Thanks for writing it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book for any reader that wants to learn about the band
Review: This book starts off with information that every fan wants to know. It gives indepth stories that help out missing pieces of the bands rise to stardom. There is an excellent venue list at the back of the book that helps everyone chart the travels of the band. The best part about the whole book is that the author gives his email address that allows for any reader to email him with more info. Truely a great book

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book has made me a bigger DMB fan!
Review: Martell did a terrific job! Similar to "Step into the Light", but more indepth. He did a great job explaining what the guys were doing before they formed, and ended the book on the future of the band. This is a very informative book, the discography, gigography, and bagbies aren't found in "Step into the Light." If you are a DMB fan, you must get this book. This book is definitely "The Best of What's Around."

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: No new information here
Review: This book is simply a rehash of every interview Dave Matthews has ever done. No new quotes or information. The author simply visited the plethora of DMB web sites and condenses the information. Boo.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This Book doesn't deserve EVEN ONE STAR!
Review: This is not the for the "true" dmb fan. I am not sure on this, but I am almost postive that Nevin Martell is not a DMB FAN! He probably doesn't like them that much, but is some hotshot researcher who wants to make money! I can tell from the many errors in the book as well as the content! DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK! WAIT FOR DMB to AUTHORIZE a BOOK! TRUST ME! NO BUY!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is totally rad! Get it if you like DMB!
Review: THIS BOOK IS AWESOME! IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT NOT GETTING IT BECAUSE Y0U THINK IT WILL BE LIKE "STEP INTO THE LIGHT" DON'T CUZ ITS GOT TOTALLY DIFFERENT FACTS AND I THINK IT'S POSSIBLY BETTER. GREAT INFO ABOUT THE MAKING OF THE ALBUMS, AND GREAT GIGOGRAPHY. END

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It is worth the buy!! Trust me, very insightful.
Review: This book is for the fan that is experiencing Dave's greatness for the first time. It talks about his highs and lows in life, personally and publically. It has insightful interviews from Dave and the band. Well written and is an easy read. Well worth it coming from a huge Dave fan. A+

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book rules just because of the fact Dave is in it.
Review: I love DMB so I will illustrate why i like this book with a simple math equation.

I+love+DMB=This book rules

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: WOW is this book BAD
Review: From front to back this book just plain isn't good. If you were hooked in by the blurb on the front that says "with interviews and never-before-published photos of the band's legendary live performances" then I have much empathy for you. Nevin Martell could have taken a lot more time in writing this book. It appears that he just looked up things on the internet or looked at some old magazine interviews to fill the book. Martel was very repatitioius in his writing and every now and then he throws in a big word to try and look like he know's somthing. If he does know anything it isnt about The Dave Matthews Band. Look elsewere for a good book on this extraordinary band.
