So the last time I caught DMB was in ‘09, at Hersheypark Stadium, PA.
I should have gone to the Gorge last year, but decided against it.
Nothing will ever compare to DMB on Friday, June 27th 2008 – (at the same venue) for me, though. This was the last time I was blessed to see LeRoi Moore perform live. I went to that show with my best friend, which was a reunion of sorts since he’s in RI and I was living in MD at the time. The opening act were the Black Crowes, which was a complete mindf*ck since we both really loved that band back in the 90s.
DMB’s show the next night was at Nissan Pavilion in Bristow, VA – and sadly it was to be LeRoi’s last performance. I always think back to that show on 6/27/08 – and how it almost didn’t come together for me to be there – and I will forever be grateful to have experienced LeRoi’s genius that night.
