Dave Matthews was on his way to a DMB concert in Hershey, Pennsylvania on a bicycle (yes, on a bicycle) but his bike broke down. Dave was in a hurry to get to the show so he had no choice but to try and get a ride with someone else. A young woman who is a die-hard fan picked him up and they brought him to the show. In return, Dave took the couple out to dinner, gave them front-row seats and backstage passes.
My question is and I’m sure everyone is wondering the same thing, why wasn’t Dave on the tour bus with the rest of his bandmates? I guess during the hot and summer weather, he wanted the exercise and fresh air by taking a long bicycle trip. He doesn’t keep things fancy and expensive like most rock stars. Looks like he just wants to keep things simple and normal.
I’m not much of a DMB fan anymore like I used to… thought I would share this funny story. Dave is a pretty rich guy. I’m sure he can get to all his shows either by tour bus or limo. I think he just wanted to go for a nice bike ride in the country area and enjoy the moment. I’m sure his band wouldn’t leave him. He just loves bike riding… kind of like me.
Even though Dave seems cool… he does have a strange and weird behavior.

He was just taking a ride near the venue before the show.
Probably one of his before show rituals. All musicians have different ones.

Also, when I said, “where’s the tour bus”, I’m kind of joking around a bit but I think you knew that.
