Not to alarm those who are fans of her, but it was announced earlier this week that cancer has entered the picture of country singer Jo Dee Messina. May the freaking crap be completely kicked out of it, she is one of our many best from the very beginning of this century!!!
God bless you and Jo Dee always!!!

Quite a bit of controversy with regards to Tom Petty. There were conflicting reports that he had passed, then some backed up, and said he hadn't.
Too bad to hear that Tom Petty eventually did pass.
Coincidental that the episode of The Simpsons in which he appeared aired in the past week. Episode also featured Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Elvis Costello and Lenny Kravitz.
RIP Tom Petty.

Aliotta Haynes Jeremiah did a song about Chicago's Lake Shore Drive that is much loved in my former hometown. Great record. And cruising on "LSD" while hearing this made it all the greater.

There was a National Day of Mourning here for Gord.
I posted this on facebook.
On The Hip's album In Between Evolution, the first song is called Heaven Is a Better Place Today.
This....is true. However, down here, we have lost a Canadian icon.
RIP Gord Downie.

George Young, guitarist in the Sixties band the Easybeats and the co-producer on AC/DC's first five albums, has died at the age of 70.
Young was the older brother of the band's Angus and Malcolm Young, who confirmed his death on Facebook. "It is with pain in our heart that we have to announce the passing of our beloved brother and mentor George Young," the band wrote. "Without his help and guidance there would not have been an AC/DC. As a musician, songwriter, producer, advisor and much, much more, you could not ask for a more dedicated and professional man."
The Young brothers added, "As a brother, you could not ask for a finer brother. For all he did and gave to us throughout his life, we will always remember him with gratitude and hold him close to our hearts." No cause of death was provided.
Young penned Sixties hit "Friday on My Mind"
