On September 23, 2003, just one day before the band's mammoth Central Park concert, Dave Matthews released his first solo album, Some Devil. The album's lead single, "Gravedigger" won Matthews another Grammy Award. The album was followed by the Dave Matthews & Friends tour. The arena tour was in an interesting format as Reynolds and Matthews would play a short acoustic set, followed by a rock set featuring Matthews, Reynolds and Phish guitarist Trey Anastasio. The tour was a success for Matthews, and a welcome break for the rest of the band.

Dave Matthews fans are extremely devoted. That can partly be attributed to the band’s open door policy at live shows; they allow attendees to video tape their concerts, which most groups will not due to bootlegging of their performances on the black market. This phenomenon did happen to the Dave Matthews Band in 1997 as thousands of bootlegged CD’s flooded the market. The band’s response was brilliant; they released a professionally recorded live album, Live at Red Rocks 8-15-95, without any marketing to keep costs down for the consumer and the album debuted at number three on the charts and was instantly certified platinum.

On October 28, 1997, Bama Rags/RCA label released an official double-disc live Dave Matthews Band album, entitled Live at Red Rocks 8-15-95. Without any marketing or promotion, Live at Red Rocks debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 chart and was instantly certified platinum. The album provided fans with a high quality and reasonably priced alternative to the over-priced, ill produced, and illegal live DMB CDs that were beginning to flood the bootleg black-market. The overwhelming success of Live at Red Rocks, combined with the band’s tremendous touring achievements, proved that Dave Matthews Band had grown from a grass roots phenomenon to one of the hottest bands in America.
