I had free front row seats at wolf trap to an ensemble performance of sgt peppers…Todd Rundgren, Denny Laine, Lou Gramm, Christopher Cross.

It was too darn close! I could see Cross’s sweat…he was nervous…also Lou Gramm was not looking too well…

Not in person, but ditto. Based on how cogent and lively he seemed, surprised to see him go. Though I guess at that age, anything can happen.

Both him and Archie Bunker were regulars….

Oh man. That's a sad and untimely death, right after you land the 4 a.m. traffic reporter dream job :(
