Death Of A Real Fucking Poet:
"Oh C.B. Do A Tap Dance For Me"

Learned of the probably not-entirely-unwelcome-to-him death of Don "Captain Beefheart" Van Vliet (succumbed to MS, no fun to live w/, we're sure) via Roy Edroso. And it's trending w/ the Twits.

What can one say or sing?This'll put a damper on tonight's tree-trimming bash.

  1. I just heard the news, today.

    I figured I'd let you preside over the services.

    The Captain has left the building to join up with Saxon in the Sky.
