Multi-Message Jesture


DMB played @ the greek theater in berkeley recently. i caught the 3rd night, a special night of music: last night of DMB tour, last night of 3 night run @ the greek, & last but not least, Leroi Moore's birthday, the founding member of DMB who passed away in August. there was a slide show played in his honor. touching. also, dave took the time to say that the last time they played there was right after "mr. jerry garcia" passed away...needless to say, it was a great show, & i was honored to be there. leroi tribute photo by danny clinch, 2003.

specifically posting this as i prep to get "aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhed" to high heaven tomorrow @ the greek, when My Morning Jacket begins their second leg of the U.S. tour supporting Evil Urges. SUPER EXCITED.



also caught another RIDICulous show recently: the mother hips @ cafe du nord. here's a clip of theirs off the AMAZING album, KISS THE CRYSTAL FLAKE. wow. couldn't help but notice that tim bluhm was wearing his Dark Side of the Moon shirt @ du nord, just a few short days before Richard Wright, co-author of DSOTM, passed on...



REST IN PEACE, Richard Wright & Leroi Moore. Thank you for your art & inspiration.
