Just found out someone I used to work with was stabbed to death. I can't even fathom the situation. RIP Netzai.

Thanks people.

There is no silver lining. However, he kind of lost touch with us all a few years ago now and tonight ive been drinking with another close friend ,who i dont see enough of anymore and is also grieving, making a pact with her to ensure that never happens again. Id say thats as close as you can get to one.

Damn. Did you know him well? Thats terribly sad though, regardless.

RIP to my fist LOVE , RIP to my homies George and Richard.
Gone too soon.

I don't know about "well." I knew him and I worked with him and he seemed like a good kid. He was only 21 and it's all just really sad.

RIP Zenaida Manfugás (1932-2012), an amazing Cuban pianist.

I'm really sorry to hear that. Believe it or not I've actually experienced the exact same thing. :(

I lost a former co-worker in a brutal attack also. Was supposed to go to the club that night, i still have regret in my heart for not going that night.

Shouldn't have posted the newspaper article bad taste my apologies.

Donald "Duck" Dunn - (November 24, 1941 - May 13, 2012) - Bass guitar player, songwriter, producer, session musician. He was a member of The Mar-Keys, Booker T & The MG's, Sam and Dave, and The Blues Brothers. A prolific session musician, he played with an impressive list of artists/bands throughout his career and was the bassist on many hit songs by those artists/bands.
One of my all time favorites, I saw him perform with Booker T & The MG's when they were Neil Young's backup band. What a show!
R.I.P.

Psy-Fi's posted so many people in here we should change his name to The Grim Reaper.

Funny you should say that. I was thinking the same thing myself after my Dick Clark entry made for three in a row.
It seems like someone in the music biz has died just before I've logged on here lately.
I have decided to compromise and have temporarily changed my avatar.
