Dave Matthews stood in front of a sold out crowd on Tuesday night to pay tribute to his fellow bandmember and co-founder, LeRoi Moore, who died at the age of 46.
“It’s always easier to leave than be left,” Matthews said. “We appreciate you all being here.”
LeRoi Moore, the saxophonist for the Dave Matthews Band, died Tuesday of complications from injuries he suffered in an all-terrain vehicle accident, his rep said.
On June 30, Moore crashed his ATV on his farm outside Charlottesville, Va., but was discharged and returned to his Los Angeles home to begin physical therapy. Complications forced him back to the hospital earlier this summer.
The band went on with its show Tuesday night at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, where lead singer Dave Matthews dedicated the entire show to Moore.
At the Staples Center concert in L.A., Matthews told the audience: “We all had some bad news today. Our good friend LeRoi Moore passed on and gave his ghost up today and we will miss him forever.”
