Sad News

It's a sad day for music, Jeff Healey has died. I'll never forget his most famous song "Angel Eyes", which always reminds me of Michele. R.I.P. Jeff, you're now pain free my friend. Then I read that Van Halen's pseudo tour has been cancelled. Say what you want about Eddie Van Halen, but at one point the guy was one of rock's most influential guitarists. His battle with the bottle is well documented, and is something that I personally can't fault him for, sealing with the same issue. Did he ever really get over his divorce from Valerie Bertinelli? Only he knows. But I can imagine that even his best attempts to stay sober have been thwarted by his own personal demons - whatever they may be. I truely wish him well, besides battling with personal regret - the toughest battle is from a friend who's always there - be it a pill or a drink.
