You might've seen an AT & T / Cingular commercial recently where the Dave Matthews Band held a contest to play a free show at a college campus. The idea was, send in text messages, videos, etc. explaining why your campus was the ideal spot for this and they'd pick a winner. I figured it would be someplace like Dave's hometown University of Virginia, plenty of braided necklaces & Birkenstocks to go around? Well, West Point won. Lesson learned? Don't pigeonhole anybody. As first brought to my attention by our founder Hal Fischer, the band is campaigning for better healthcare for veterans - here's a YouTube clip from ABC. And if anyone deserves a little free big-time entertainment, it's the Cadets.
