Ric Ocasek of The Cars Passed Away

Sad today as another musical friend from my youth passed away. Ric Ocasek, frontman for my favorite band in High School, The Cars, died today in his Manhattan townhouse it appears from natural causes. Benjamin Orr was my favorite member of the band and his passing back in 2000 was harder for me as he was one of my inspirations, and the reason I started playing bass and singing in a band. With each passing like this it causes me to see my youth disappearing before my eyes...or to say it more correctly, to feel my youth being erased from the world. A strange thing to feel and to think about. Rest in Peace Ric. Your songs still play on in my life...thanks for the music and for the memories.

I saw that on the news today. I know that it is inevitable but this past year so many celebrities from my youth have passed away.
