On what would have been founding member and saxophonist LeRoi Moore’s 57th birthday, the band played a tight and memorable show before a sold-out crowd on a perfect late-summer evening.
Known for its impromptu and sometimes raucus jams, DMB put forth a lock-step effort that was less wild and more controlled than a lot of its shows. With a week off, from their annual thee-day Gorge run, save for a TV appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, band members appeared relaxed and reflective, perhaps having spent time pre-show talking about their late friend, “Roi.”
