I'm seeing reports that American Rock Great, Bob Segar is dead.

Facebook is reporting him as dead. Wiki has him as still alive.

I'm not seeing any news reports.

 

Fun fact, Bob Seger and I went to the same high school, though he did so 15 years before me.

I.M.O. the most under-rated U.S. rock musician.

And prolific song writer.

I saw the post about Alain Delon.

 

I used to own Le Samourai. Absolute banger.

Heard Phil Donahue passed away. No real opinion except decades ago, his show had Robert K Brown, the honcho of  Soldier of Fortune magazine. My main takeaway was him watching attendees to the SOF Conventons and being "aghast"-- what if one of the cops who attended this event pulls my daughter over?

I just shook my head at what a weenie he was

He was a bit too worshipful of BHO, though that might just be playing to his core audience.

He IS still alive, right?

As far as I know.  He is getting a bit long in the tooth, 79 I believe.

I feel bad, I believe I erred when I said he passed away. I got a second hand report from fb that he had passed. I've seen no news stories. 

What is BHO?

Well I thought so, wasn't sure.  In that regard I find Seger both a hypocrite and failure.  He says he's a centrist, right down the middle, while professing adoration for the 21 Century Marxists of the Democratic Party.

I figure 90% of the entertainers are Democrat or left leaning. Exception would be country music. 

I've never followed Bob Seger's political views. I've enjoyed his music since the 1970's.

The affection for 'The Annointed One' is why Camila Cabello is "VERBOTEN" on my car radio.

Until Obama I don't think he ever publicly expressed political views.

I just saw that. Amazing how he took the bull by the horns and made content despite the impending death. 

And I think I know the Caleb he speaks of. 😕

Wow, didn't see that coming.  I'm subscribed to his channel but I don't follow closely.  Pancreatic C took my brother as well, and just as fast.

An amazing amount of thinking goes into his presentations. I watched every single one of his videos for years except maybe the tomahawk throwing and black powder ones. This is gut-wrenching.
