As I get closer to the end zone I try not to think about it. Hah. 

I told my wife about him tonight. She said, "Did he do some music you liked.". Then when I explained who he was and the work he and his brother had done and how upset I was she said, "Well this is what happens when your idols are 40 years older than you.".

I changed the subject to what's for dinner.

BTW ... She leaves for Hawaii again for work on Monday at 3am ... for 4 weeks. ???

Yep. We just lost Charlie Watts. They say it always goes in 3's. He was the third. For me anyway. What a sad week.

yep just saw this rip charlie

When I posted this about Don Everly I was going to say I think Charlie would be next. He hasn't missed a show in 50 years. Seeing that he picked his replacement for the upcoming concerts to recover from surgery was not a good sign. But I didn't want to be so negative. But yeah, I called this a few days ago.

We're losing too many of the people who shaped many of our lives.

Dozens of early Rappers are old enough to move into the +50-year-old communities that have been our bread and butter since the late 1980s. Damn, that makes me feel old.

Anyway, RIP Don, I hope you and Phil can sweeten up heaven with your beautiful harmonies.

RIP.. one of the first singers I ever heard as a kid that I remembered having to look up his name. He was a great singer of that era.

Makes me appreciate being alive during a time of great music and musicians✌️

When I see my peers leaving life's stage, I consider myself a survivor. That doesn't mean I don't miss them though.
