"This is the first time we've had a song in a videogame, but it seems appropriate because we're all fans of Tiger and EA SPORTS. So it feels natural that, if we were going to end up in a video game, it would be next to him. When we were recording 'Stand Up' in the studio, everyone had this reaction that it reminded them of sports. So I think it was the only song that would really be right for the game," said Dave Matthews. "I've been a huge fan of the Tiger Woods PGA TOUR game for years. Playing the game is a nice way to wind down after a concert... when we're riding on the bus, I'll play it instead of watching TV. Playing the video game version of golf puts me in the game when I can't actually get to the golf course," said Stefan Lassard, bassist for Dave Matthews Band. "The sound of golf is not an easy one to define, but with Dave Matthews Band, we've found the perfect anthem for Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 06," said Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive of Music and Music Marketing at EA. "In this year's game, we are delivering a score that helps bring the player deeper into the experience."
