Just saw him this Summer at a free concert in a local park. Glad I went - it was a great night of classic rock covers and Smithereens' tunes (mostly acoustic).

They're supposed to play 2 gigs next month near where I live, but I guess they'll cancel.  :cry:

I had been following her on Twitter for the last six months. She was genuine and appreciative of her fans. It was sweet. I was looking forward to seeing her documentary actually and seeing her tell her story. She had a great life and career. It was great to see a bit of recognition that late in her life.

Big Buzz fan.

Young was a badass. And funny as hell. Dude snuck a corned beef sandwich onto Gemini. As big a legend as there ever was at NASA.

NASA transcript  Scroll to 01 52 26

From this article...

Certain members of Congress, though, were incensed at the thought that Young had ignored all of his very expensive space food in favor of deli take-out, and ended up setting an appropriations committee meeting to question NASA administrator George Mueller about the event. Thus, the immortal congressional line: “We have taken steps…to prevent recurrence of corned beef sandwiches in future flights.”

No. The head coach on Coach was Craig T. Nelson, the dad from Poltergeist. Jerry Van Dyke was assistant coach Luther Van Dam and not in Poltergeist. 

 
We just mentioned him yesterday because my wife saw Lou Holtz talking about the playoffs and she knows him as **** Van Dyks brotyher
