My fondness for the Grammy Award-winning Dave Matthews Band goes way back. The jam band has always held a special place in my heart since it popped up on the charts in the mid-1990s with songs like “Ants Marching,” “Satellite” and “Crash Into Me.”

The Buffalo, N.Y.-based Dave Matthews Tribute Band has paid homage to the gang since 2004. They’ll perform at 8 p.m. Saturday at Vultures, 2100 E. Platte Ave., $33.72; vulturesrocks.com. – Jennifer Mulson, The Gazette
