RIP JK, I'm sorry for your loss.

Thanks guys. He was an original, and I feel like everyone left the funeral reflecting on their own lives and trying to think of how to be truer to themselves.

That's a lovely memory of your friend.  My condolences.

RIP, Mr. JK.

RIP Greg Lake, the second of ELP to bite the dust. Age 69 from cancer. Bugger.

I'm beyond words about 2016. 

Indeed.

Aw, fuck.....was hoping to end 2016 a little more quietly.  RIP.  A great voice and talent.

FUCK cancer!  FUCK 2016!

RIP Greg Lake. Sad news.

RIP Greg. Man he had a great voice! I saw them live 3-4 times in the '70s, including the Works tour with full orchestra. Always great live.
2016 needs to fucking die!

RIP Greg Lake 

 

In full flight in 1977, when they were in their late 20's, in deep snow in a Canadian sports stadium - the best ever version of Fanfare for the Common Man

 

The Common Man has had entirely too much say already in 2016 and can get fucked, generally. RIP Greg.

Moog have recreated the Emerson Moog Modular https://www.moogmusic.com/content/moog-modular-synthesizers . They have been paranoid about authenticity - same circuit cards, they trawled the world for obsolete semiconductors, switches and controls to make a thing of great beautu.

Keith Emerson had to have a technician touring with the band to limp the old original one along, until he eventually had it rebuilt.

A great and fitting tribute to a fine and completely original band. Wish I'd seen them live.

Too damned true, Stretch. Too damned true.

RIP Greg Lake.

 

John Glenn... he and the rest of the Mercury/Gemini/Apollo astronauts were my heroes growing up.

I met him in person about 10 years ago and he seemed like a wonderful man.

RIP.

Just saw the news about John Glenn.

One of the last Bigger than Life heroes from my childhood!

RIP

RIP John as well, never made it to the main show (moon) - but kick ass hero.. 

 

 

-- can this year fucking end already?!?

 

John Glenn was the first presidential candidate I liked.  RIP.

RIP John Glenn. So many days still left in 2016 

RIP John... I'll bet he didn't think he would live to 95 when he was sitting on top of that Mercury rocket. Damn.
