Has it ever been determined what the filler set from 4/1/93 is from?
From the sound of it, the first CD is 4/1 (an evening show). While CD 2 is a daytime show.

Almanac mentions 4/1/93 ending with True Reflections.

Spoiler:

History:
Jason Silverstein gave this show to Sharon Bergamo in October of 2004 (special thanks to Wayne Teeger who made the connection!). It was a single minidisc labeled "He's Not Here, Dave Matthews Band, 4/1/93." She sent the minidisc to Ken Mininger for digital conversion. This show is previously uncirculated. Jason was at this show and can verify the date and location. The following are notes from Jason sent to Sharon and Ken:

"What I can tell you is more personal. The He's Not Here show was personally paid for by my old fraternity, Pi Kappa Alpha, as an April Fool's Day bash. I was pledging at the time, so I had to help the band set up and break down the equipment. They had this old white van we packed with their own amps. I remember Boyd and I struggled with one piece - he wasn't as 'fit' then. The guys were very laidback, and you can hear several of them screaming song names between songs during the sets. Funny stuff, at least to me because I know who is saying what."

"There's another show as well from "Fraternity Court," which actually happened the week prior and was paid for by all the fraternities in the court (including ours). We had about 20 real big band devotees in the house (including me), so booking them was pretty easy. The funny thing is we paid $3,500 for them at He's Not Here and we thought that would be the last time we could afford them. We were right."

The "Fraternity Court" show referenced is the 3/20/93 show (also given to Sharon on minidisc and converted by Ken). This show is currently in circulation but with a different setlist order. The minidisc version has no cuts or breaks and is believed to be the proper setlist order. In this show, Dave mentions the upcoming 4/1/93 show at He's Not Here.

Compiled on October 20, 2004 by Ken Mininger and Sharon Bergamo.

This was a sad time in the Band's history. Ugh

That’s a cool story. $3500 ! Pretty sure Rothbury paid them a million to play there in 2008. Not bad for the Dave matthews band.

For anybody who cares, here's the audio for that AB: [Only registered users can see links.]

edit: looking at my 2005 folder, I already had this. In fact have had it since it aired. My copy was mono though. Nice to have an upgrade.

Not sure why we didn't have that Today Show performance on the site, but it's there now: [Only registered users can see links.]

I love how Dave likens the songwriting process on Stand Up to 2am coke fueled crazy business plans.

The Stone 9/18/07 in the outro Rashawn interpolates a classical musical piece... Can't off the top of my head identify it.
