This weekend, the Dave Matthews Band will return to New York City with their traveling multi-day festival – Caravan – after Hurricane Irene forced the postponement of its final two days several weeks back. Moving just a bit north up the East River from Governor’s Island to Randall’s Island, the fest will retain its three-day format, where the DMB will be joined by the likes of Dispatch, who will play on Friday and Saturday nights, Warren Haynes, who will perform a special solo set, and vintage jam act From Good Homes. Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds will also play a special Sunday afternoon set.

Tickets for Dave Matthews Caravan are currently on-sale, while those who are still holding onto their tickets for the originally scheduled dates should consult the exchange page for more information on attending.

Finally, with Jeremy Piven officially out of work now that HBO’s Entourage officially coming to an end after eight season this past weekend, the actor has put it out there that he wants to play the late Keith Moon, the enigmatic drummer for The Who.  Piven, who once guested with HT faves Umphrey’s McGee on percussion back in 2004, mentioned his interest in playing Moon The Loon in an interview with Fox News last month. While we’d love see Piven channel Ari Gold and Droz Andrews into the role, we hate to burst his bubble, but Roger Daltrey is already producing a biopic on his former band mate called See Me Feel Me: Keith Moon Naked For Your Pleasure, which is set to be released in 2012 and will star Mike Myers in the role.
