Daily Staff Writer

The Dave Matthews Band concert to take place Sunday, Sept. 22 at Hilton Coliseum will go on as scheduled despite the death of bassist Stefan Lessard’s 3-year-old daughter Friday.

DMB publicist Ambrosia Healy said Monday, “Shows are cancelled through Friday, but the Ames show is on.”

The Omaha, Neb. date on Friday, Sept. 20, Minneapolis show on Saturday and Ames show are “intact.”

Healy added that the situation is subject to change but “as of now, those shows will still happen.”
