Dave Matthews Band at the Greek in Berkeley

I’ve seen the Dave Matthews Band perform something like 40-50 times since ‘93-’94. Nearly without exception, I leave every show thinking, “That was the best show I’ve seen.” Last night was no exception.
After the recent passing of longtime bandmember, LeRoi Moore, I was curious how the band would handle it. The answer: The replacement player played hard. Dave made a few oblique references, and they played a touching tribute during the intermission.
A brilliant show. The encore was amazing. I’ve never seen that level of crowd interaction, and the Greek is a great place to see a show.
I had a great time. Thanks to my MBA classmate Luke for the ticket.
Pictures are from my camera phone, so limited in quality. Last one was taken using the lens of a binocular.

40 – 50 times? Wow! I’ll have to get out one of my old CD’s, maybe the kids would like it.
