Additional personnel: Robert Randolph (pedal steel guitar). No stranger to live albums--or even live albums recorded at natural amphitheaters (see LIVE AT RED ROCKS 8.15.95 and THE GORGE)--the Dave Matthews Band revisits Colorado's unique stone venue with WEEKEND ON THE ROCKS. Captured over four consecutive dates at Red Rocks in September 2005, this two-CD/one-DVD set features Matthews and his ensemble primarily performing songs from STAND UP (released earlier in the year). Although some tunes (most notably the epic "Bartender" and the groove-heavy "Smooth Rider") evolve into lengthy jams, the DMB also shows off its knack for tight, focused songs, particularly on the one-two punch of the surging "American Baby" and a straight-forward cover of the Zombies' "Time of the Season." At this point in their careers, Matthews and his band gel effortlessly in concert, so it's refreshing to hear pedal steel guitarist Robert Randolph and other guest musicians sitting in with the group to dynamic effect. (Note: The setlist on the DVD differs from those on the CDs.)
