Although I didn't like watching him at New Years anymore I am still saddened to report Dick Clark Died Today from a heart attack.

    Agreed, it was tough to watch. Seemed to be exploiting him the last couple of years, but I am sure he wanted to do it. He was an icon.

    So the Mayans are correct??

    DC seems like a nice guy. I can hardly picture him ever losing his cool.

    Thank you for all music and bloopers....RIP

    Rest in Peace Mr. Clark.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    American Bandstand! What a show! He was a true professional and at one time one of Forbes wealthiest 400 Americans. He lived a great life and saw it all. 82 was still to young for a classy guy like Dick. RIP Mr. Clark!

    RIP Mr. Clark.

    I did watch and enjoy the Pyramid quite often.:-)

    Your AB show taught my wife to love dancing. If only I had watched more of it instead of working every weekend, I would be able to dance with my wife.



    PS.
    He was like a Mr. Rodgers who dealt with the teenager sceen instead. Much more fun !!!
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.
