All of my icons are passing away.  Makes me think of my own mortality.   Sad

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

Absolutely great band made up of incredible musicians. We've sure lost a lot of great musicians lately too.

 Sad to see Mr. Trucks go.  Saw the Allman Brothers play several times back in the day.

Agree we are losing so many legends these days.  I wonder if they have rock concerts in heaven where these guys can play together?  If they do I hope it is like the outdoor ones I use to attend back in the 70's and 80's where they would let you bring in your own cooler of beer.

Jaimoe and Butch set the bottom with Berry Oakley; Dickie and Duane on the high end, with Gregg in the middle.

Well that just adds to the tragedy of it all for we fans of the band.

    Saw the "how" this morning while having my coffee.
    I agree, "it just adds to the tragedy" and "what a mean spiteful thing to do".

   It appears that he let the "Taxman" get the best of him.
