dhg Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) A phenomnal bass guitar plyer, a great songwriter, a wonderful man, and amazingly not in the joke that is the rock and roll HOF. RIP. 100% correct BPA. Wow. Absolutely devastated. Had no idea he had been diagnosed with leukemia a month ago. Was fortunate enough to see the band many times, most recently last June. Me and my GF happened to walk by him in the hotel as he was staying on our floor. Exchanged a couple quick pleasantries, but so wishing I would have stopped him and engaged him in conversation. I am sure he would have. A true music legend that will be greatly missed.

Chef Jim Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 A little levity for the situation. Saw them at the Warfield in SF a few years ago. Got up in front of the stage and I have this to say about Chris. Guys with small wieners shouldn't wear skin tight spandex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4merper4mer Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) My personal favorite posted below. It shows off the bass even if the movie they based on it sucked bad. RIP Edited July 2, 2015 by 4merper4mer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
