Sorry to hear but just why don't I care? Can't you stick to people we know? I've never heard of this guy before. This has become a name dropper thread.

They were quite the sensation when they were born. Even when I was growing up in the 60's they were still newsworthy.

yeah but I hate that they went through hell at the hands of their father once they went home for good

If you've never seen Cedar Rapids, he's absolutely fantastic in that.

I've been to Cedar Rapids. Stayed overnight at the Best Western.

Hopefully there won't be anymore to post this year, here's Chris Barker's Sgt Peppers in memoriam, he also said he isn't going to do these anymore because they've become a chore (that and Charlie K***)

On our way to watch Tyler play Idaho State & Dixie State back in 2014. My wife & I took 2 weeks vacay & went all over the Western US, including the Grand Canyon & a few days in Vegas. It was 92 F in St. George, Utah when he played Dixie State. I was Facebook friends with Lyle Bauer. He had a winter home in St. George. He used to talk about it. Had a chopper he brought down with him. He loved hitting the road with that bike.

Shame that Rob Reiner did not merit a photo.

he's there the Stonehedge (being a reference to Spinal Tap)  represents him. The artist gave himself a deadline last year because people tend to die after he posts the initial print

Well if it’s a timing issue, I’d get it. Although Bridgette Bardot got a prime spot and she died only 4 days ago, a full two weeks after Reiner. And I saw the Stonehenge acknowledgement, felt he deserved an actual photo, given his massive influence goes beyond his debut mockumentary.  JMO.

Reiner should be there. He was a beloved icon.
