Rest In Peace Leroi
August 20, 2008
Awoke this morning and stumbled over to DIGG to find that one of my favorite muscians had passed away yesterday evening. Leroi Moore, original saxophonist and cofounder of the Dave Matthews Band from Charlottesville, Virginia, was 46.
The Dave Matthews Band (Dave Matthews, Stefan Lessard, Boyd Tinsley, Leroi Moore and Carter Beauford) inspired me to pick up the guitar and learn a great majority of their music. Attending a half-dozen DMB shows, watching and listening to Leroi play was absolutely the tops of DMB concerts. He is missed by millions, myself included.
