Here's the place to talk about our departed loved ones -- friends, family members, tour buddies, and others we've lost along the way.
You know in his
You know in his autobiography "A Reporters Life" Cronkite mentions "it was louder than the drums at a Grateful Dead concert" I always wondered how he would know that. My kids and I met him once at Epcot it was very early in the morning on a very cold December day in 1985 and we were practically the only people in the exhibit about oil.He was being escorted by a guide and was kind enough to shake hands with my two boys and pose for a picture.
And the road goes on forever....

RIP Walter Cronkite
Don't know what else to say, feel very sad. One truly honorable journalist is gone. **********************************

And the road goes on forever....

Les Paul at 94
Solid body electric guitar inventor Les Paul died today from pneumonia complications. He was involved with Gibson guitars and multitrack recording.
A tip of the hat
to Les, without whom the world would be real different...
To Les Paul
I wonder if you ever imagined your creation would spawn such masterpieces as the ABB at Fillmore East, Blow By Blow, all Led Zeppelin, not to mention a tune or two by Jerry and Bobby and many, many more ... thank you, thank you, thank you. RIP
" Where does the time go? "
the genius of Les Paul...
...RIP Les, it wouldn't have been the same without you... Les invented the electric guitar, and the process of multi-track recording. Leo Fender invented the solid-body guitar, think Fender Stratocaster here... Leo was a genius too, think of all the Fender Amps he invented... RIP Leo as well...
CBS Sunday Morning
Les Paul is one of the features on CBS this morning, 8/16, with a short tribute from Joe Walsh.

Story
Strangely, the story doesn't mention his involvement with NRBQ
and there's nothing on the NRBQ site about it yet
My best friend for 10 years
My best friend, little brother that made me happy for 10 full years had to depart us. He was a Japanese Spitz. I will never ever forget you and may you rest in peace, Tim!Love you always!
Pregnancy Miracle
so sorry to hear this Nancy
and feel free to tell us about him in Your Faithful Friends...
i was looking at his bio
and didn't see any service time listed.
i think "boat" is pretty much
a traditional slang term...although submariners call their subs boats. the PA system is called "1MC"...and i have never figured out why, though i know the designations are broken down for different areas of the ship...1MC being shipwide. but now i've gotten away from the use of this forum.....rest in peace leonard "soupy sales" hines. i'll miss you and yer pies
SOUPY-------
.......what will Whitefang andBlacktooth do now????? Many friends we have-many friends we have lost-along the way........Keep Smilin!!!!
dinghy
thought the Soupbone was really named Milton, his brother Lenny (Leonard) Supman;
Hines was one Soupy's original stage names, though not his birth name.
***
no matter, that which we call a Soupbone by any other name would still throw a pie in your face.
( -:
peace.
yup cc, yer right, it was milton.
he had 2 brothers, leonard and jack...and hines was a stage name. it was changed because it sounded too much like "heinz"
John Cox
Detroit / Michigan heads - and many heads everywhere - might know John Cox, owner of longtime Head shop Three Doors Down in Pontiac. He was stabbed to death on Thursday by some crackhead who couldn't have pulled more than $100 bucks out of the register there. I've been going to Three Doors Down since I was 13 and had to have my mom drive me there, and John himself is responsible for about 95% of my early Dead tape collection. He was surely instrumental in getting me on the Bus, but the main thing is that a kinder and gentler soul couldn't have existed. He probably would have given that crackhead the money if he had asked. Instead we've lost one of the real good ones, in one of the most ridiculous and senseless acts I've ever heard of. Rest in Peace, John, and have a real good time with Jerry.
i am sorry
to hear of your loss.....he sounded like a fine person.......yet another reason people need to be able to defend themselves against scum like the knucklehead that committed this foul act. the bastards can be found everywhere and they only care about their own selfish wants....may your friend rest in peace.

god damn
thought it was just a reccurring bout of anorexia these past couple of weeks, a thing my old lady suffered for years and years, she was always thin but the fuck if she kept the scerect of the cancer from me... and took her from me. RIP; Nao, may the four winds blow you safely home.
