Oddly enough, Phish's lineup includes no one named Jerry. Loving that picture of Garcia brandishing a telescopic rifle on the back of Sam Cutler's new book, Andy "As for the friend of the close school the way as for some herb which is to taste the urine of the human in the strange fantasy which considers cool thing frequently, the way falling Donovan the building which the recall is done listed name.

And doing strange things. One morning on the way to school, he picked up a dead crow that had been hit by a car, shoved it in his pocket, then while the teacher wasn't looking dropped it on her desk." ...into Japanese, then "back" into English, at http://babelfish.yahoo.com/ ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 1 May 2010 22:57:02 -0400 From: Michael Zwirn Subject: [loud-fans] R.I.P. Owsley (more bad news in Tennessee music deaths?) More bad news in Tennessee music deaths. I think I heard a few of his songs from mix-CD exchanges on the Loudfans listserv. Will Owsley, the Middle Tennessee-based singer, songwriter, engineer and guitarist known professionally as Owsley, died April 30 of an apparent suicide. Mr. Owsley was Amy Grants touring guitarist for 16 years, and his own music veered into edgier, power-pop terrains. He was nominated for a Grammy award for his engineering work on 1999 solo debut album Owsley, released through Giant Records. He teamed with Millard Powers and Zak Starkey in early 1990s pop band The Semantics, a group that signed to Geffen Records. And his vocal and guitar work were favored by famed producer Mutt Lange, who hired Mr. Owsley to perform with Shania Twain on numerous national television shows and awards programs. Giant Records dissolved soon after Owsleys release, and Mr. Owsley set about writing and recording independent follow-up The Hard Way. He constructed the album in his home studio, and it won positive reviews. We are all reeling today from the news of Will Owsleys death, Grant wrote in a posting to her website. So many of us in Nashville worked with Will, lived with him on the road, celebrated his talents and knew his anguish. Please join us in praying for his family and children. Mr. Owsley leaves behind a wife and two children. No memorial service details are yet available. http://blogs.tennessean.com/tunein/2010/05/01/musician-will-owsley-dies/ ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V9 #88 ******************************
