I saw CSN&Y at Jones Beach in the early '90s.  Just fantastic.

RIP

 

With his drug, alcohol, and medical history, one of those "How'd you make it this far?" passings.  28 years after a liver transplant is a pretty good run.

He had a good run. His son with Melissa Etheridge died a few years back at age 21 from an opioid addiction. That had to be heartbreaking.

Much too young.

RIP Marshall Tucker

 

Of course, he never actually played in any band.  He was just a local dude the band met and named themselves after.

Well it's happened before, Jamie Lee's father stole his name from Stony Curtis on the Flintstones.

Former Blackhawks great Bobby Hull dies at 84
Daily Herald ^ | 30 January 2023 | John Dietz

 

Bobby Hull, the Blackhawks' all-time leading goal scorer, died Monday morning, two people close to Hull told the Daily Herald.

No other immediate details were available. Hull just celebrated his 84th birthday on Jan. 3.

 

The controversial Hull, who possessed a howitzer of a shot that allowed him to score 610 NHL goals, broke into the league in the 1957-58 season. He scored 30 or more goals for 13 consecutive seasons then left for the World Hockey Association in 1972 when the league agreed to pay him $1 million.

 

Hull, Stan Mikita and others led the Hawks to a Stanley Cup title in 1961.

 

Hull also became the first player to score more than 50 goals in a season on March 12, 1966, and finished with 54 goals that season.

I used to love the stories years ago about how then-current players - Drew Brees specifically - used to get pissed when he would walk around in shorts at NFL events showing off the scars from all of his NFL-related knee surgeries.
