Incredible player and great great guy. Politics aside...this man can play like nobody's business. Prayers for a speedy recovery.

I hope he makes a full recovery.

Ironically, I’m thinking of the Crash CD when speaking of LeRoi Moore.

Yep. I love DMB...I try to leave politics out of my music selection.

LeRoi Moore was injured today in an ATV accident on his farm outside Charlottesville, Virginia.

Who is he? I have never heard of him before tonight. Prayers his way.

I hope he is okay. I really enjoy their music.

As for ATVs, I’ve been riding them for 20 years and can do so safely but those things can be very dangerous. I’ve seen people turn them over at very low speeds doing things you’d never think could possibly turn them over. I also know some folks who have been really hurt. For some reason a lot of folks go all out on those things and drive them in a manner that they’d never think of driving a truck despite the fact that the ATVs are less stable and you have no protection. Flat out on a rough dirt road is asking for trouble. I’m not saying thats what happened to him just expressing my own observation.

Unfortunately, last night's NBC local news coverage in DC turned video of LeRoi into a free Obama commercial. It was from DM's performance at an Obama rally and the banners were in full display.

Some editor at WRC is feeling very smug.

I did a search and didn’t find anything.

LeRoi has died.

Tragic....very sad day for the band. LeRoi was an awesome musician and will be greatly missed.
