Damn world, stop killing off good people. take lady gaga instead.
R.I.P.
my return to commenting
unfortunately has to be for
this piece of news.
don’t forget how sad Loudon Wainwright III
must be.
Dammit. Just last night I saw the episode of Elvis Costello’s Spectacle where she sings with Rufus & Elvis. Sad news.
Saw The Swell Season last night. Glen and Colm dedicated a bunch of songs to her last night. It was beautiful.
I don’t know how I missed this yesterday. Such sad news. I agree with the first comment – the world has been taking far too many good people lately.
I saw Kate and Anna perform a couple of Christmas’s ago in Halifax NS. Was such a great show. She will be missed.
