Dave Matthews Band/Wedding Songs

Question
Hello! I'm getting married in July and my fiance' Jason and I would love to have DMB songs for our cermony. But one problem... there are not very many 'wedding lyrics' songs Dave plays. The song we're dancing to is Steady as we go. But.. here's my question, How can I get DMB songs without the lyrics? I've already contacted many tribute/cover bands of Dave Matthews, but they want to charge us too much $$$! The songs we wanted for the cermony are American Baby Intro, Dream Girl, Everyday, and Crush. Do you know anyone tribute bands that could just make a CD for us? Please Help!! Thanks!!
Hey Lydia!
Sorry it took me so long to answer, but my computer died. I'm on my parents computer now. LOL! Anyway, have you thought about Karaoke music? I, unfortunately, don't know many people that listen to DMB so I don't know any bands that cover the songs. But you could try a karaoke CD. I found a few sites that you might want to go to...
www.loudkaraoke.com - You have to by the whole CD. It's not just the singles but there's a CD that you can get both Crush and Everyday.
www.karaokewh.com - Has a whole CD with only DMB songs on it. It has Everyday, Crush, and all of American Baby on it. No, Dreamgirl though. :( But there is a 100 song CD collection that's about $70 that has Dreamgirl on there...if you want to spend that much money. LOL!
www.chartbusterkaraoke.com - They have about 65 different CDs with at least one DMB song on it.
I hope that helped a little! Thanks for the question and congratulations on the wedding!

| Comment | Grace- Oh My Gosh! Thank you! Thank you so so much for the advice! That's an awesome idea!! Your amazing! You completely nailed my question! That is exactly what we were trying to figure out! No lyrics we just want the music for our cermony. We had no idea how to go about hiring a tribute band or even asking different musicians to play DMB songs (b/c well.. you know, they wouldn't sound as great!) I'm for sure going to check out the websites you gave me! Thank you again! I appreciate it! Lydia :> Oh! Since you mentioned American Baby-do you know a softer version? (or I guess I should say a softer tune?) You know that would be bad if I used the version with the guns going off in the backround!! lol! Just let me know what you think!! Thanks again! | ||

I can answer questions about Dave Matthews Band and Dave Matthews. I can help people understand the lyrics. I can also give them a little bit of useless information.
Experience
I've been a fan of the Dave Matthews Band since I passed by my brother's room one night on the way to the bathroom almost 8 years ago. I fell out of the DMB circle for about 2 years but I'm back in full swing and have caught up on most of the goodness.
