Oh no!


Terrible news


I feel like a couple of years ago I was going to drive to Philly to see Sly and Robbie back MichaelRose but changed my mind

They announced a couple of days before show that Robbie wouldn’t be there and would be replaced by Lloyd Parks


I always so wanted to see Sly and Robbie


RIP Robbie. You played your ass off on earth. Thank you. Take a breather before getting back to it with Bob and all  the other greats

I love Smalltown Boy
also, the video definitely opened my eyes to the plight of homosexuals just trying to live normal lives and being attacked for it
quite possibly my first exposure

Down to two Monkees and two Beatles. They should merge. 1967 won't know what hit it.

Only Micky Dolenz is left. Davy Jones died in 2012 and Peter Tork died in 2019.

Oh, damn. I missed that Peter Tork news. Sounds like this is a good time for the Beatles to strike while they have them outnumbered.
