God Bless him...

I used to play his music when I was a radio DJ here in Austin. He was also great as the singer/guitarist of the house band in the terrific "B" movie "Road House".

Wow, he was blind too...

You ought to hear him sing and play. He rocked hard.

I remember him from the Swayze suck-fest Road House. He was one of very few good things in that movie.

I own that movie and consider it one of life's little guilty pleasures. Well, that and my collection of naughty nurse videos.

Rest in peace...

Calling it "guilty pleasures" means you have a sense of decency. I'm disappointed now.

Well, I wouldn't go that far. Kelly Lynch in scrubs is the real reason I watch it. Or was it her crisp, white lab coat?
