It was covid… and he was an outspoken critic of vaccines mandates. Not sure of his vax status. Either way, we place our bets and roll the dice in the game of life every day.

RIP… your music is immortal.

He didn’t hide his disdain for Covid mandates and the overreach they brought. He also told a reporter “if I die, I die,” in response to a question about Covid. It sounds like he made peace with it. That’s pretty much where I’m at with it as well.

Never saw a better live show. He could command an audience like no one else. R.I.P.

I don't know how many times I saw that movie while living in Key West, somewhere between 150 and 200 times. Maybe a dozen or so after moving away. Still enjoy it at home from time to time but the time warp isn't nearly as boisterous as in the past.

Guess it couldn't wait any longer. RIP.

Yup, he was awesome on stage. Had the pleasure of seeing him 2 or 3 times late 80’s, early 90’s

Funny how if you oppose mandates you are now anti-vax. I am vaccinated and oppose mandates.

But I'd have a beer with most of you any time

But do you REALLY oppose mandates or IDENTIFY as opposing?

Saw him at "Monsters of Rock" at Zeppelin Field in West Germany in 1983.

"So now I'm praying for the end of time, to hurry up and arrive..."




Careful what you wish for there buddy. LOL.

RIP, and thanks for the tunes.

RIP Sir. I saw him in early 90's and he put on one hell of a show at the Vogue.
