oh, that's too bad. I always liked them. Such an important group in rock history. Kantner never got enough credit.

The closest to punk Bowie ever came would have probably been with Tin Machine, and that was 15 years late, and the visual aesthetic there was the opposite of punk.

I'd say Neil Young embraced punk more than maybe any other established 70s icon...he even name-checked Johnny Rotten.
Hmmm. I don't think punk was fighting against glam as much as it was fighting against everything. Neil Young's My My Hey Hey is definitely a reaction to punk, but I don't think it's an embracement of it as a lasting movement.

Walt "No Neck" Williams died, stocky Chicago White Sox player. I only vaguely remember him, but I do remember his nickname.

RIP No-Neck! He was a southside legend. He had a very unique batting stance that every kid on the street would mimic.

Nielson actually died a few years back. Balls bitten off by a Laplander I think.
