... I would go underground right about now.
Vince Welnick dead at 55
Yes, that leaves exactly on Grateful Dead keyboardist left in the death pool. Good luck Bruce, you're gonna need it.

wouldn't do any good. There'd just be a cave in.
on a related note, the keyboardist for a GD tribute band also died recently of a heart attack

bruce played the state in kalamazoo on my birthday for $5 with student ID ($45-65 for the rest of the public). last thing i want to hear is "back in the high life" but i really wanted to go. shit it was $5, spending that on a hornsby show would have been well worth it.

If I were Bruce Hornsby, I do believe I'd have offed myself long before now.

"Back In The High Life" was Steve Winwood. Bruce did "That's Just The Way It Is".

i agree. i don't listen to that much classic rock anymore, but traffic and steve winwood (before he went the light rock radio route) will always be classic. dude was a fucking prodigy.
war fronting a sweet band and hitting it big when you're 16.

Bruce Hornsby was not a one-hit wonder. In addition to
The Way It Is, he also hit with
Every Little Kiss and
Mandolin Rain, also possibly one other which escapes memory at the moment.
Bruce Hornsby and the Range won a Grammy for best new artist in 1987, IIRC.

All I know is now I hear a public info ad with Bruce Hornsby stating something like “Unfair housing is not just the way it has to be. If you feel like you’re being taken advantage of, please report them.”
This for a state of Indiana ad council. Yeah, he’s fallen.
