That's a shame. They were a band you could root for. I voted for him when he ran for senate in 2000... think he would've been a better choice than Corzine or Bob Franks.

Only a Memory was one of my favorite songs

I enjoyed listening to their music. I would have liked it to have seen them live. Bet it would have been a great show.

time this summer at Crossroads in Garwood NJ, doing a set of Beatles covers. Was outstanding. He brought the house down with his stories/humor. Sad day.
you could hear the influences of the Who
