DAVE MATTHEWS LOUISIANA BAYOU WITH ROBERT RANDOLPH

Great jam, talks about the idiocy of the southland. Andy Griffith type stuff, Mayberry on crystal meth. Kinda like Arkansas. Gem? Nah, more like the rimmer of the nation, Arkansas.

REST IN PEACE MR. LE ROI MOORE

Your music had a profound effect on me. You will be sorely missed. Blessings and Peace on your gifted, wonderful soul...

The first concert I took my son Jakob to was a Dave Matthews Band show in Bonner Springs, Kansas. They opened with #41. Their encore that night was Don't Drink the Water.

LeRoi's woodwinds on songs like Bartender captivated me or years, literally.

When Kelli first got me into DMB sometime in 2002, I focused on their music for at least three years, exclusively. Three years of nothing but Dave in the CD player and nothing but Dave on the DVD player. I picked their music apart. In fact, not since I was an adolescent have I completely studied a band. Then it was The Who. To a lesser degree The Doors and Zeppelin along with Pink Floyd, Rush and others...But as an adult, DMB I have followed. Since then the only artist to pique my interest to the same degree is Mos Def.

Well, I can't imagine DMB being the same. Clearly the band is going to go on. I'll still buy tickets to their shows.

I just realized, Kell, Jakob and I saw LeRoi at the Gorge for I think his last show there. Last summer...Peace and love, all

Mike
