rock and roll, dying of old age

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a 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

A creative person would prefer their music to be stolen and enjoyed than ignored. This is the dilemma for every creative soul: he or she would prefer to starve and be heard than to eat well and be ignored.

—Pete Townshend
