WHAT?! WHAT?!!!??!!

This man was one of the greatest vocalists of our time. As well as a corporate genius. Trump got nothin' on Tony Camaro. I saw this man's genitals more than enough times, but god damn he could put on a live show.

Damn, this is really too bad. I hope the new guy can try to fill his shoes, but thats gonna be pretty fuckin' hard.

No I never have gotten to see Kung Fu Rick live :( But I have had the pleasure of seeing HWC numerous times. Ive even had the pleasure of playing with these guys once, like 5 fuckin years ago now (god damn time flys)

Now I really wish I would've went to that instead of the Humanoids show at the Galaxie.

you could have went to both. The KFR show was a late one and only about 5 mins away

I think it's going to be pretty awesome. If anyone can do it, it's him. It might not be good, but it's going to be weird!

I just woke up, maybe had a little too much to drink last night...but, at first glance I saw the Band of the Moment and thought is said Neil Diamond. Only it was Melt Banana.

I thought Neil was looking particularly Asian in his older years...but why isn't Neil Diamond on this site more often? We get to hear about Panic At the Disco....at least Mr. Diamond is punk as fuck. Come on, "Coming To America" > "No Borders, No Nations." by Anti Flag.

Some one should start a petition.

I know that this is not the point, but Melt Banana is exponentially better than Neil Diamond.
