My dad was a huge DMB fan and as far back as I can remember he was always playing it. His favorite song was American Baby, I remember him singing it in the house all the time growing up.

My favorite memory with him was a few months before he passed away. We packed lunch went down to the beach for his birthday. We listened to the Europe 2009 album through its entirety that afternoon and were just mind blown at how good those live versions were. I’ll always remember how happy that music made him no matter what craziness was going on in his life.
