Well....I've had two decades long musician friends die in the last year.
We were band mates for for years while playing al the Bay Area clubs.
Neither were in the military and had very soft lives as compared to those of us in this conversation.
Somehow....I woke up above dirt level again this morning so no whining from me.
It does conjure up thoughts of who's next....I'd guess I'm on that list :)
Semper Fi....and carry on.
