Her documented mental health struggles and eventual suicide are heartbreaking and familiar regardless.

And I actually saw the Judds at the Houston rodeo in the '80s, hah. I was young, but I do remember it being in the Astrodome and the stage was a revolving platform.

My first and last date with a girl was watching Luther Vandross on a revolving platform. He was amazing. My date was fine, just not for me. Her dad chaperoned. He had nothing to worry about.

RIP Naomi

I saw both Black Sabbath and ZZ Top on a revolving platform.

Wait...back to back? Did the drummers share a gong? I'm envisioning a massive stage prop: Eliminator on one side and some kind of evil hearse on the other. At a certain point in the stage's rotation you could be hearing Children of La Grange.

Sadly, it was separate shows at the Fleet Center.

For the love of God, somebody do this. Those riffs can even swap rhythms smoothly enough.

You are somebody, no?

This is fun to read on the actual day I am being deported to a place I haven't lived in thirteen years, nor have any surviving connection to.

I meant somebody who can play music, which I can't.
