RIP LeRoi Moore 1961-2008

LeRoi Moore was the sax player from the Dave Matthews Band, he he passed away last week. The first concert I can truly remember was DMB at Jones Beach, June 9, 1996, with Ben Harper as the opening act. What made DMB so great was the diverse musical styles that fused together, and LeRoi, being a classically trained musician who loved jazz, was the perfect fit. I'm positive they will continue to tour, but it won't be the same.


In happier news, TV on the Radio release their new single "Golden Age," from the forthcoming album "Dear Science." This album will be awesome.
