Joe Bonsall, the mustachioed tenor of The Oak Ridge Boys, died today at 76 after a four-year battle with ALS.

He retired from the group after a 50-year run back in January.

Chino XL died (you may remember him from things other than being dissed in "Hit Em Up")

Well, actually I don't, but I have heard that name so many times in that exact context.

Jack Russell and Great White were killer. They might have even been better than Guns N Roses. That was just the tightest, hittingest music that I never got tired of. It was everything good about 80s rock and heavy metal crammed into 5 and 7 minute songs, which might be the only reason they didn’t get as huge as Guns N Roses. They never quite had a short song that rocked as hard as Welcome to the Jungle or Paranoid. If you liked hard and heavy music that was still fun if you weren’t in the mood for serious Black Sabbath or Metallica stuff though, Great White was it. 

Rock Me was my Warpigs. It didn’t come on the radio every day, but when it did I knew it was a treat and I turned it up and if anybody was near me they would say yeah now there’s a goodun. Then when it was over it was sad because you knew it would be days before you heard it again. The song never totally went away either. It was always being played somewhere on the radio even if it was at 1 AM in 1995.

RIP to Saint Vitus Bar, New York City, New York. 

This is from a friend of mine, James Danzo, guitarist in Tower.

And i'm happy i keep records of this stuff, because i could never remember even half of it.
