LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-JAN 9, 2019…HAPPY 52ND BIRTHDAY TO DAVE MATTHEWS. DAVE MATTHEWS WAS BORN IN SOUTH AFRICA. HIS FATHER WAS AN EMPLOYEE OF IBM, AND AT THE AGE OF 2, THE FAMILY MOVED TO VIRGINIA. THEN THE FAMILY MOVED BACK TO SOUTH AFRICA WHEN HE WAS 13. MATTHEWS THEN MOVED BACK TO AMERICA WHEN HE WAS 18 BECAUSE HE WAS DRAFTED AND DIDN’T WANT TO FIGHT FOR A RACIST COUNTRY.
THIS IS AN AMAZING FACT, DURING THE PERIOD FROM 2000 TO 2010, THE DAVE MATTHEWS BAND HAS EARNED MORE MONEY, AND SOLD MORE CONCERT TICKETS THAN ANY OTHER BAND IN AMERICA.
HERE’S AN ENTIRE DAVE MATTHEWS CONCERT, ENJOY !!
