61 and natural causes? Scary because I'm close to that!

Must have been a "rough" life.

It's too bad though. Too many rock stars from my time have gone. It seems time moves way too fast.

That sucks. I heard Jimi died too! Sadly I never got to see em. I did see the Greatful Dead cover all along the watchtower, though.

I saw him, Noel Redding, and some guy named "Jimi" when they were the opening act for Three Dog Night, and, believe it or not, the MONKEES...
"Pleasant Valley Sunday" was never the same after Jimi got off the stage...
<edit> He's probably playing "Voodoo Child" amd "Purple Haze" with Jimi right now....

R.I.P. Mitch....

I'm really suprised and sad. :cry: I thought he was in good condition, it really stinks.
