a deranged psycho shot and took one of the most influential heavy metal guitarists away from the world, coincidence thats its the same date that a deranged psycho shot and took Lennon away from the world?

RIP Darrell Abbott.

    That was a sad day indeed. I didn't realize that it was on the same day.

    Isn't this the 30 year anniversary? People LOVE round numbers.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Anyone been to the Alrosa Villa? There's a big brown stain on the stage... dunno if it's from badly cleaned up blood, or just rock and roll though.

    There are other influential artists that have been killed or whatever so why John Lennon continues to be lauded is beyond me. His days with Yoko are at best awful but in time with the generation. He's become the Che Guevara of tshirts with no real knowledge of anything.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
