RIP DUSTY HILL I love you forever. Your bass was so loud at one show it made my wife puke. You were half of rock n roll’s greatest EVER rhythm section & a hell of a songwriter. https://t.co/3WruUsejtl

I hate that my social media has become more of an obituary but such is life, young or old, we are but mere mortals when our time comes.
