Moore was Grammy winner

-- "Dave Matthews Band's LeRoi Moore: Grammys snub?" on EW.com's PopWatch Blog on February 9, 2009

I was shocked and very saddened to learn that LeRoi Moore died. Adding to the shock: I consider myself a DMB fan, yet I just found out about his August 2008 death today. Even though I didn't know about Moore's death, and didn't watch the Grammys, I feel anger towards the Grammys' organizers for not including Moore in the "In Memoriam" segment. The guy was a prominent musician in, and a founding member of, one of the biggest bands in the world. Heck, he had been nominated for a Grammy twelve times and even won one in 1997! Oh, right. That means Moore was a Grammy winner. Error fixed.
