rock and roll, dying of old age

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2015.12.28

Well, Lemmy's dead. One of the articles had a reference to the 2013 passing of Mick Farren; hard to believe I missed that one. Ah, well. The funny thing is watching a generation of elderly rockers pass; it was inevitable but it's still a jarring note.

rand()m quote

Work is about a daily search for meaning as well as daily bread; for recognition as well as cash; for astonishment rather than torpor; in short for a sort of life, rather than a monday-to-friday sort of dying.
