Ric Ocasek found dead.


I’m not liking all these Memorial listening sessions.
RIP Ric.

We lost another good musician. It’s becoming all to frequent now. Rest easy Ric.
Great music. Full of energy. Just what the 80's needed. I still listen to them probably once a week or so. 
I attended their concerte in Madison Square Garden - a great event! Still remember it to this day! Ric Ocasek was so skinny, his spandex pants were baggy!
We lost a very talented musician - RIP RO.
I grew up in Boston in the '70's and hung out with Ric and drummer David Robinson at the record company table at the Paradise on occasion in '78-80, when we would go to see up and coming acts, like the Police, the Pretenders, the B-52's, etc. We had dinner a few times at this Japanese restaurant in Back Bay, too. He was a truly nice guy, even after their debut album was big on the charts.  Another talent lost too young.

RIP Ric.
