What a very sad loss.

Damn you to Hell, 2016!

RIP Greg.

Damn you to Hell, 2016!

You maniac year! You blew it all up!

Well, it did knock off Castro for us, so there's that.


Unfortunately, Kanye's still on the loose.

[Sir Slash]

Maybe he'll get Castro's old job. Kim could squeeze her ass into those big 50's car seats. Probably.

Kim and Kanye are headed for splitsville.

[Sir Slash]

Which cheek does he get in the settlement?

R.I.P. Mr. Lake.  Two thirds of one of my favorite bands passed this year.  :(

MD- give this a listen:

That could be the score of a movie.  Or even a movie itself.

I particularly liked how the wide shots showing the orchestra suggested the view form the main deck of a sailing ship looking back across the raised stern.

Note that the commercial which played before the actual video was an ad for the Hans Zimmer Masterclass on composing...

[MetalDog]

Love me some ELP.  Really sad that Greg and Keith have passed.  Of the many concerts I have attended over the years, they were not one.  :(

Another brilliant side to Greg Lake:

Good picks, Stagger. I have the albums. 'Pirates' still gets plenty of plays.
