Academy "Acknowledges" Moore Controversy

According to AntsMarching.org writer Jake Vigliotti, the video tribute was likely made well in advance of the its airing, indicating Moore was never intended to be featured. The Academy press release confirms this notion.

I confess, as a lover of Dave Matthews Band and fan of LeRoi Moore, that I'm not terribly annoyed with the Academy for such a snub. But it is weird that they left out someone they nominated so many times. Ah, well. We love you, Roi!
