People take life too seriously. None of us are getting out of it alive.
We might as well keep it simple while we are still here. I grew up
with the Beatles and the Stones, I don't profess to know anything about
their personal lives. I didn't know them. They are musical icons, not
personal friends. Who knows the reasons behind Brian Jones' death, or
what the heck happened to Dennis Wilson that day. I'm still trying to
figure out if Natalie Wood was killed or if she just decided to jump
off the boat or was pushed. Many unanswered questions in life. Was
Marilyn Monroe murdered, or did she OD? Why did Jim Morrison move to
France and die in a bathtub? Where are all the singing groups that
invaded the US in the sixties and is Gary Puckett still in the union at
the gap? And where were you the day the music died....driving your
chevy to the levy? Unless you can find a way to crawl inside another
persons head to hear his thoughts, we really do not know sh*t about
anyone. Especially musical icons.
All Good Things,

As the ever cool and ever handsome John Travolta said in that
intellectual musical GREASE.....THE RULES ARE...THERE ARE NO RULES.
