To all Veterans today, thank you. To my grandfathers, George King and Don Coston, thank you. And I miss you.

RIP Richard Lloyd

 The passing of Richard Lloyd is so much more than having once been the guitarist for Television. I saw Richard play with Television, Rocket From The Tombs, Matthew Sweet and others, as well as his own band. I had breakfast with him at A. Lee Edwards' house. For so many moments that I treasure, Richard was there, a true character, musical explorer and road dog.

As time passes, we lose more of the people that created moments that changed our lives. Thankfully, those moments do not change, even when we do. The music and memories live on, and it is up to us to pass those stories on for the next set of eyes and ears that want to learn more. Just as we were once eager to do.

Here's to you, Richard. Playing your music loud tonight, so that you might hear it up there.

See you in the stars, and yes, the Marquee Moon.

RIP Tom Cheney

 Hail and farewell to Tom Cheney, longtime friend and family member. Along with being happily married to my Aunt Bev for 58 years, Tom's grandmother had also been a Coston, making Tom the oldest family member in my complicated tree.

Tom was, and will always be a sweetheart, and occasionally re-posted some of my goings on, gently reminding me that someone in Phelps, NY was still looking out for me.

Safe travels, Tom. Tell Bev, and all the old kids that I said hello.

See you in the stars.
