Warren Zevon has died. It's not a big shock or anything, but it's still sad. At least he was able to get his last album, "The Wind," out before he passed. The album has been getting some good reviews. I think I'm going to pull out my copy of excitable boy and listen to "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner" for a while.
