LeRoi Moore Passes
TMZ reports that LeRoi Moore, the saxophone player in the Dave Matthews Band has died at age 46.
Moore was injured in an ATV accident at the end of June which resulted in him puncturing a lung and having broken ribs.
He was back in the hospital last month due to complications but things took a turn for the worse in Los Angeles, CA on Tuesday afternoon (August 19) and he died at the Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center.
The band who are set to perform at the Staples Center in Los Angeles will continue as scheduled.
A rep for the Dave Matthews Band said, “LeRoi Moore, saxophonist and founding member of Dave Matthews Band, died unexpectedly Tuesday afternoon, August 19, 2008, at Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center in Los Angeles from sudden complications stemming from his June ATV accident on his farm near Charlottesville, Virginia. Moore had recently returned to his Los Angeles home to begin an intensive physical rehabilitation program.”
