Default "The Sky is Crying" 10 years ago

It was 10 years ago yesterday that the music world lost one of the greatest musicians of all time. Legendary blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan died in a helicopter at Alpine Valley, Wisconsin. Besides fishing blues music is one of my passions, both playing and listening so the loss of Stevie was a big blow to me. I know that this isn't a fishing topic but to me it's topic that is near and dear to me and I hope you'll indulge me this once.
Thanks

Big Stew, SRV's music lives on. Great stuff.
I wish I knew how to play. I always envious
of people that possess such gifts. It makes
me wonder if they (entertainers) realize how
much they inspire others. Thanks for sharing, I remember the day well when they announced his departure on the radio. a great loss and just when he got his life of
addiction squared arround. Good post.

BS,

I remember that day like it was yesterday.
When I got the word I was goin fishing.
Damn shame, that boy had a lot of talent.
It's just not the same without him around crankin out tunes.

I think we should go fish in the rain as a tribute....
