Me too.  Old schooler who had lived what he commented on.  Greatly saddened when I heard the news.

Re: R.I.P. Thread

Just wanted to share this link, about halfway down the page is a piece on a good friend that passed away earlier this year. I took the photo at his wedding in 2007. Thanks to Randall Smith and all at Mesa for everything they've done for Kurt's family. Kurt started working at Mesa Boogie when we were still in high school. Nothing prepares you for losing people that you care about.

Re: R.I.P. Thread

Thanks Alby. Truthfully, i did not know much about her or many others mentioned here. i will look into more of these artists works although its not as good as celebrating while they are here on Earth. I do thank this forum for introducing me to many artists i hadn't known about otherwise though and that I have had the chance to enjoy in real time.

Just saw this one myself. "Legend" is overused, but not in this instance. RIP...

Re: R.I.P. Thread

We had tickets once to see "No Show" - and he lived up to his name.  Too bad because he was someone I would have liked to have seen.  Another great one gone.

I knew he had this, but was wondering. This is a horrible disease. So very tragic.
