Gravedigger
The most powerful experience with art i have ever had was one of the first times i ever saw the Dave Matthews Band live. It was when the screaming crowd of over thirty thousand fell silent, as Dave Matthews quietly spoke "Gravedigger" into the mic. It riddled my body with goose bumps, i could not believe the power that came from his voice. Then the crowd began to uniformly and quietly sing Gravedigger. To be in the presence of thirty thousand united in harmony, it was ground breaking. My view on the power of art completely change, art was not just listened to art seen, it brought people together and empowered them. Art shapes the world.
