Not really drum related, but I just saw that Ray Charles died today. One by one the great ones leave us.

Rest In Peace Ray!

Ray Charles - "Georgia On My Mind" was playing on the radio when my first son was born. So I have a soft place in my heart for Ray. I am a Weekend Warrior www.theauthorities.net \m/ -_- \m/

We in Georgia will miss him... But so will the rest of the world. You know most of the greats are in that age group and we will be losing a lot of them over the next few years... To bad that there are no great musicians to replace them with. Steve Studio Technologies

I agree Steve. You look at the greats who have died over the last few years, it is sad to think soon they will all be gone. I regret never having seen Ray Charles in person.

Ray Charles has never seen Ray Charles in person, either. BA DUMP BUMP, PSSHHH!

Ok, I know, that was in extremely bad taste, but Mr. Charles had a good sense of humor about things like that, and I mean no disrespect.
