How can a man’s death have such a profound impact on a fifteen year old kid stranger in Arroyo Grande? How can that man’s life have such a profound impact on that same kid’s life, before and after, still, thirty years later?

I’m just a human, a victim of the insane.

Happy Birthday John, I still miss your physical presence being here on earth and always will. Your everlasting magical musical presence continues to inspire me always too.
