Re: R.I.P. Leroi Moore.

We all will miss the stunning saxophone solos that Leroi Moore presented us with. His artistic touch can never be replaced and I'm not sure the music will ever sound the same again. Hopefully the band will go on and, as witnessed by their dedication to play tonight, they will go on in honor and memory of Leroi. Although no one would really blame them for going separate ways due to this extreme hardship, time will heal all wounds and if anything, this will bring even more energy and musical enthusiasm to the rest of this year's tour and to the remaining band members. They will unite and become closer than ever before which leads me to believe, their best music is yet to come. R.I.P. Leroi Moore. #34 will forever be your song and I hereby propose that it be your song that everyone will choose to play in honor and memory of your gracious artistic lungs.

This is so true.

I'm a big Springsteen fan and we were all reeling last April when Danny Federici died. Bruce knows how Dave feels tonight.

My prayers go out to DMB and esp. LeRoi's family.

Re: R.I.P. Leroi Moore.

I'm going to feel sick for a long long time. This is rock bottom. A great man has lost his life and a great part of our lives ends. Best wishes to his dear friends and family, hopefully they know what an incredible effect he had on all our lives. This is an awful tragedy. Rest peacefully brother Roi.

Re: R.I.P. Leroi Moore.

R.I.P. Leroi, your sound gave Dave Matthews Band that unique touch that kept the music alive and well for so many years. There will be absolutley no one who will be able to replace a true legend and unbeliveable performer, one who had touched the lives of all his fans and will continue to touch lives long after his passing.

We'll miss you Leroi, now you and God can have a funky tea party of your own.

Re: R.I.P. Leroi Moore.

I treaure my experience of 5/5/07 knowing with great sadness that I will never have the privilege of seeing Roi play live again. The music world has lost a true gentleman.

LeRoi Moore, I salute you.

All I can say is that God needed him in heaven more than we needed him here on Earth.

Rest peacefully, Roi, you are survived through your music and your fans.

This is devastating.

Re: R.I.P. Leroi Moore.

I'm devastated and awed by this tragic news. At a time when the band really seemed to be coming up with some great and exciting stuff, we were struck with the news that Roi was in an accident. And now when we thought things were beginning to look up for him, a turn for the worse. I'm deeply, deeply saddened and truly sorry for his family, friends, and all of us...his adoring fans. I cannot even express the sorrow I feel right now for all of us. We've truly lost an amazing musician, but more importantly an amazing man. You will be sorely missed forever and always. RIP Roi.

R.I.P. Leroi, you will be missed greatly and the Dave Matthews Band will never be the same without you, we all loved what you did day in and day out and you will always be remembered in our hearts.

God Bless

I'm listening to 8/13/94 and LeRoi sounds like an angel on stage. Now he'll always be an angel. RIP LeRoi, you'll be missed.

Thanks for the great music and great times, Roi.

You'll be missed tremendously by everyone. The music you helped create has impacted my life in a good way and I am thankful for that.

Until we meet someday, rest peacefully.

Re: R.I.P. Leroi Moore.

This is a very sad day. A foundation of this band has moved on. I will continue to hear his melodic breath, his pure sense of timing and his unique ability to share his gifts with the world. He has given so much to the fans. Peace and blessings to his family. :angel
