why am I not surprised that when I went looking for a legitimate cover of this beautiful song that Dave would be the one to take it seriously and not as just some throwaway SNL joke. The man has a poets soul
Tim is the shit! I had the EXTREME pleasure of seeing him and TR3 play live in a tiny club, on New Years eve, in LA called The Mint. Best way to ring in the new year!
Wonderfully Brilliant! As always Dave & The Boys Rock!! Especially Dave & Stefan! And I like the back-up singer, i think his voice goes well w/the song. :) THX for posting!
i had a mini heart attack when this started!!! most amazing night ever, and i was in the pit! i wish i could go back to that moment.... like if this were Inception, right now i would be Mal longing to go back to the perfection of that time and totally miserable that i couldn't! lol ok, that's ridiculous! but great video, thanks for sharing :)
OMG! I love the talent on these guys. They can play anything. I think Tim had this in his repetoire & pulled it out. Those two voices of Dave and Rashawn is so smooth and purposeful like a silent freight train. "Don't fear the Reaper, take my hand, we're gonna fly. Baby, I'm your man". So he's the Death Angel now? Now how many women wouldn't mind going out like that? Dave as the guardian/death Angel to escort us to the 5th dimensions and higher? President, Thanks for posting this.
Not anymore for DMB! I am 49 years old and ended up front-row-center for 2 of the 3 nights! Best experience ever...so good that I may never go back (after having seen 7 Gorge Amphitheater Concerts with DMB) because I'm pretty certain that I wouldn't make it to the same area ever again...and will be disappointed!
Yep, the whole weekend was general admission. We got great spots all three night, but we also was at the gate at 9:30am and they didn't open till 1:30pm...well worth the wait sitting in the sun all day.
Actually he was singing in perfect pitch (and lead sing as well). Reproducing the original pitch is nearly impossible, even BoC failed ; watch their live 2012 video... so stop hating, this is undoubtedly the best cover of this song ever made..
Yes, because the Caravan tour was GA tickets only. So 26,000 people showed up with the expectation of being on the rail for a DMB show. It was probably the most dangerous show I've ever been at. The whole night had a Lord of the Flies vibe to it. I actually left the pit 2/3 way through their set and watched the rest from the lawn.
Don’t think Carter has a cowbell on his kit plus it would need to be in the Aux so it would fall under Rashawn I think in this case and don’t see him with one lol.
@dmb41, I can imagine! I was 3rd at the gate when it opened and ran my 35yr old ass as fast as I could but was gassed at the lawn and the pit was still a good run away! Glowsticks was cool to see but throwing them at the band is total disrespect! Ditto on douchbags!
Dmb has a lot of different songs, Dave sometimes messes lyrics to songs he wrote. It happens, if you have something bad to say about this, your not a true fan.
Love how the crowd loses its mind when they hear what song it is!

Are you saying you didn’t need any more cowbell in this version?….
One of the greatest songs ever covered by one of the greatest bands ever. Blue Öyster smiling.
I was in the front row for this concert...
Valerie Boggs I envy you something you’ll never forget 🤘🇦🇺
As a lifelong B.O.C. fan ... I can't think of a better band to do an awesome version of this song!
This cover tops : ruclips.net/video/3_qE6RrkgJA/видео.html
I gotta be honest the vocals weren't great... Just my opinion.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaattt????!!!! Fricking AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A really beautiful remake of a classic. Dave's voice is so good for what the song is about. He sounds like he's crying.
Nice cover. I've seen Blue Oyster Cult live and their version is insane live with the lead guitar. DMB does it justice here.
You’re lucky. What a show. ruclips.net/video/RjMEzBMiTJ4/видео.html
Wish I saw them.
He's actually got a really great voice for this song
Tim makes every guitar riff and solo look effortless! Purely amazing
Holy balls!!! I just discovered a new love inside!!! DMB & Blue Oyster Cult....I can die happy now!!
I was there!!! So friggin awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tim is the shit! I had the EXTREME pleasure of seeing him and TR3 play live in a tiny club, on New Years eve, in LA called The Mint. Best way to ring in the new year!
Wow what a treat !!! Thanks so much for uploading this ❤
The 90s wouldn't be the same without Dave Matthew's far as I'm concerned. That sound brings many memories front and center.
Mystery Man mii jomjyyne
OMFG!!' Lost for words!! Brilliant
we need more COWBELL!!!!
Mark Lindemann LOL
Yes we do!
I got a fever!!!
Wonderfully Brilliant! As always Dave & The Boys Rock!! Especially Dave & Stefan! And I like the back-up singer, i think his voice goes well w/the song. :) THX for posting!
i'm doin a little DMB marathon and this one reminds me to finish my usual yearly viewing of The Stand movie that we started on Thanksgiving ✌
He makes me Smile BIG ! I love his moves and the band ! Spinnin me : ) ~~~~~
i had a mini heart attack when this started!!! most amazing night ever, and i was in the pit! i wish i could go back to that moment.... like if this were Inception, right now i would be Mal longing to go back to the perfection of that time and totally miserable that i couldn't! lol ok, that's ridiculous! but great video, thanks for sharing :)
Just found this, I think they did a good job, love the song, and Dave did it justice, Well done DMB
That bass player suggested they play this one, and Dave was clearly on board, lol.
Absolutely the ULTIMATE jam band!
Nailed it! Brilliant
that crowd reaction was awesome

Tim kicks some serious ass!
jeeezus. I don't even know how the hell I hadn't seen this until now.
Greatest band, greatest lead man, greatest cover............EVER!!!!!! I shall never fear the reaper when Dave is my musical savior. ;)
love DMB,,great cover !
Great version of that song

Well Played by a great band.
Just great!!
Excellent !
Great job on the epic!
Awesome song
Awesome BOC cover from DMB!!!
Awesome cover
The only decent cover of this song on RUclips !
The guitar player did a good job with buck dharma’s middle eastern flavored solo! Fantastik!
This is soo awesome... Greatest living band, hands down
This is the perfect example as to why Carter is a Master. He plays for the music and nothing else.
I got a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell.
Cmon Carter.. that massive kit and no cowbell??
Yep, the whole weekend was general admission. We got great spots all three night, but we also was at the gate at 9:30am and they didn't open till 1:30pm...well worth the wait sitting in the sun all day.
Dave Matthews just got even sexier, and I thought that wasn’t possible.
Wow, never heard DMB doing straight ahead rock-and-roll. 4/4
Actually he was singing in perfect pitch (and lead sing as well). Reproducing the original pitch is nearly impossible, even BoC failed ; watch their live 2012 video... so stop hating, this is undoubtedly the best cover of this song ever made..
Backup vocals are clearly not in pitch.
Yes, because the Caravan tour was GA tickets only. So 26,000 people showed up with the expectation of being on the rail for a DMB show. It was probably the most dangerous show I've ever been at. The whole night had a Lord of the Flies vibe to it. I actually left the pit 2/3 way through their set and watched the rest from the lawn.
I really like Daves voice for this song... just needed a bit more from the back-up vocals in the 'echoes' - too weak.
This cover was amazing! I was nailed by glowsticks most of the night because we was at the bottom of the lawn but well worth it.
2:47 a la Buck Dharma!
That back up singer is horn player Rashawn Ross
it good
Wow
Am I the only one who thought Carter should have used more cowbell?
It’s not Buck and Eric but it will do!
Where's the cowbell?
djmcnerney I got a FEVUH...and the only prescription...is a little more cowbell.
Don’t think Carter has a cowbell on his kit plus it would need to be in the Aux so it would fall under Rashawn I think in this case and don’t see him with one lol.
Carter doesn't need such thing
I had an idea that instead of glowsticks at the gorge, they just make our three day wristband pass GLOW~!!!!
The black guy in the black shirt looks like a random fan that got his “make a wish” foundation dream to sing with DMB come true
Exactly what I thought
Yinz are idiots. He works for the NAACP. Keep it cool you jags! 🤷🏻♀️😊
👁👁❤️
where's the cowbell? It needs more cowbell. I have a fever and the only prescription there is, is more COWBELL! I want more COWBELL!
DMB Caravan was all general admission. I was there the whole amphitheater was first come first serve
❤️💕💋💞💞😘
YOU GOT TO BE FUCKIN KIDDING ME...
My favourite band does the song with my favourite riff :OOOOOOO
@devgolfs341
Hold up.... the floor was open to anyone that was fast enough to get there? wasnt the floor for floor ticket holders?
I expect more cowbell
Song brings a pop don't it? And it should.
Carter rips the eff out of this! typical carter
Carter Ramone on the drums 😆🤣
Not enough cowbell
More cowbell
Can you buy this song anywhere???
You can just direct rip to cd using a program for free.
@dmb41, I can imagine! I was 3rd at the gate when it opened and ran my 35yr old ass as fast as I could but was gassed at the lawn and the pit was still a good run away! Glowsticks was cool to see but throwing them at the band is total disrespect! Ditto on douchbags!
Bruce Dickenson, yes, THE Burce Dickenson!!
"We need more cowbell!"
They only remarked the song
I NEED MORE COWBELL!!!!!!!!!
I'm a fan of learning the lyrics to a song if you're going to play in front of thousands of people, but, you know......that's just me.
kaothol "Seasons dont fear the reaper...rulumnda wind or rain" Haha...
Dmb has a lot of different songs, Dave sometimes messes lyrics to songs he wrote. It happens, if you have something bad to say about this, your not a true fan.
Dave don't remember his own lyrics at times...#dMbfamily
Better than the original.
wow more street cred for DMB
Bruce Dickinson himself couldn't have produced a better version (yes, THE Bruce Dickinson).
@PRESIDENT42069 all of the caravans. the whole thing was GA
Dmb is awesome with cover songs, they always get the sound just right. Maybe they should be a cover band. lol jk.
It would have been better if Dave had used an electronically enhanced cowbell for maximum audio effect
Marry Me Dave.
The Black guy sounds a little bit like Mike Tyson
Rashawn Ross has lost a ton of weight.
you know,that almost hurts my feelings.. oh well! your missing out on good music! i hope you were joking!!! these guys rock!!
You would have thought they could have at least got the lyrics right..
HEY CARTER BEAUFORD! more Cow Bell... im telling you, you're going to want that COWBELL!!!!
jkparty
The band set up should be; Cowbell, drums, Cowbell, bass, Cowbell, Guitar, Cowbell, Keyboards, and finally a couple of more Cowbells.
more cb
Nice try Dave but that doesn't cut it. Hail BOC😋
It's good but where's the cowbell?
what ! no cowbell
dave is creepy enough to pull this off
