In memorium: LeRoi Moore 1961-2008

Dave Matthews Band is one of my favorite bands. They are the only band that I have seen live front row, center. I heard about this on the radio, and felt that I needed to pass this on. You can get more information from their website.

We are deeply saddened that LeRoi Moore, saxophonist and founding member of Dave Matthews Band, died unexpectedly Tuesday afternoon, August 19, 2008, at Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center in Los Angeles from sudden complications stemming from his June ATV accident on his farm near Charlottesville, Virginia. LeRoi had recently returned to his Los Angeles home to begin an intensive physical rehabilitation program.
