    The Space Between Podcast

    Have you ever thought about the fans behind the band?

    Welcome to The Space Between Podcast—a show dedicated to the people, stories, memories and moments that make the Dave Matthews Band community so special.

    I’m Renae Lipsmeyer, and in each episode I sit down with a fellow DMB fan to hear their story. How did they find the music? What shows changed them? Who did they meet along the way? And how has this band become woven into their life?

    Some stories are hilarious. Some are emotional. Some are completely unbelievable. But every one is different—and every fan story matters.

    With more than 200 episodes, there’s a good chance you’ll hear a little piece of your own story in someone else’s.

    Want to share yours? I’d love to hear it.

    On September 11, 2001, Daniel was working inside Tower 2 of the World Trade Center. He remembers learning Tower 1 had been hit, being directed toward the stairwell, and the terrifying realization that his own building had just been struck floors above him.

    🎉 WE HAVE A WINNER! 🎉

    The Space Between Podcast PIT Ticket Giveaway winner is… JOHN! 🙌🎟️

    John’s entry stood out because it was more than just an explanation of why he loves Dave Matthews Band. He told a story about what this music has meant across the different seasons of his life — the highs, the hard moments, the adventures, the friendships, and the memories that came from simply showing up to hear the music live.

    He talked about how concerts can become so much more than concerts. They can help us grow. They can connect us with people we never would have met otherwise. They can give us a place to process grief, celebrate life, take chances, and sometimes even head to a show alone and come home with a whole new story.

    That is exactly what The Space Between Podcast is about.

    John’s creativity, his willingness to really tell his story, and his genuine passion for DMB made his submission stand out. It reminded me why documenting the people around this band matters just as much as documenting the shows themselves.

    So John… YOU’RE GOING TO THE PIT! 🔥

    John will receive one PIT ticket to see Dave Matthews Band at Mystic Lake Amphitheater in Minnesota on August 31, along with a The Space Between Podcast shirt to wear at the show.

    Thank you to EVERYONE who took the time to submit a video and share a piece of your DMB story with me. Watching these entries was such a reminder of how many different roads can lead us to the same music and the same incredible community.

    Now watch John’s winning entry and you’ll understand exactly why we chose him. 💗

    Congratulations, John! We can’t wait to see that selfie from the PIT!
