RIP:HUGHIE THOMASSON

Dead of a heart attack at age 55 on Sept.9. What a great guitar player/singer, leading such a great band.(The Outlaws - you should know that) Seen them about three times, the last time was when I developed tinnitus in my right ear from being too close to the speakers. (Let that
be a warning to you kiddies.)
And a nice guy, too. Got to meet him one year when they played Gasparilla in Tampa, FL.
Even autographed a couple of albums for me. I know the Outlaws had just finished
recording a new album, hope they get it released.
So, Hughie, sorry I didn't get to see you one last time, but glad I was able to see
you the times I did. Rock on in that Southern rock band in the sky...
