for me it's either van halen, zz top or tom petty. some memories are a bit blurry, but i was there bongsmilie
We had a lot of semi local southern bands that made the rounds each year. Bands like Eli. Not sure what they did, but they were always around.

Plus all the usual southern rock. Outlaws, Charley Daniels, Atlanta Rhythm Section, the Winter Brothers, Derringer, that sort of stuff.

I've heard lots of people talking about Bourdain, but I've never watched any of his shows. He wrote a food book, right?
multiple best selling books in his 40's after 20+ yrs in the food business. then his emmy award winning show on CNN. you should watch some of them. very interesting, revealing and accepting of the world. i love his show.

My IG buddies were talking about him a few weeks ago. I had never heard of him. I don't do pop culture, so I don't know most folks on TV.

Was he a recovering heroin addict? I think I heard that on NPR {from his friend who found the body}. Life is hard enough without that shit..

he was well beyond any heroin addiction, he even did a show where he grew up and the opioid addictions in the that community.

i don't know why he committed suicide. he was a very bright, friendly and outgoing dude. loved to eat and party and learn of all cultures in the world.

he will be missed. i would have loved to have a beer with him. obama did...

plus bourdain was kinda anti pop-culture... cool dude...

smoked hash/cannabis on some of his shows when the culture and law permitted.
