Neil Peart (The Professor) is a heart breaker. I grew up with Rush. The death of his daughter lead to his downfall. I'm certain that fans worldwide were grieving when they heard the news. He is a legend. May he rest in peace.

Dang it, Mark Lanegan just died.  He was the lead singer for the punk-leaning grunge band Screaming Trees in the 80's & 90's.  He had also recorded several solo albums and was featured on recordings with Isobel Campbell, Mad Season and The Queens Of The Stone Age.  He was only 57.

Sadly, Ned Eisenberg passed away at age 65 from cancer.   He's one of those wonderful character actors that you see a lot but probably don't know his name.  I always thought he was superb in his stints on the "Law & Order" franchises.  He was also in many other movies, Broadway shows, and T.V. shows such as the 2021 HBO series “Mare of Easttown,” “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” “The Blacklist,” “Elementary,” “White Collar,” “Blue Bloods,” “The Sopranos,” “30 Rock,” “The Good Wife” and movies including  “Million Dollar Baby,” “World Trade Center,” “Limitless,” “Flags of Our Fathers,” “Last Man Standing,” and “A Civil Action.”

This one bugs me…  I watched this guy on Nickelodeon in my teen years. Recently I had been binge watching a bootlegged DVD of the show. Outwardly, he seemed to look great for his age. Cancer sucks!

^They finally released his cause of death.  He had been dealing with prostate cancer and apparently died from complications from that.   Didn't like his politics but he was a great actor.

It is with a broken and heavy heart that we announce this morning the passing this morning of founding Betrayal guitarist Matt Maners (ex-Martyr, The Terminal Generation) after a long battle of health issues.
Matt was a Wonderful person and extremely talented musician ahead of his time. Matt was the writer of such Betrayal classics as “More Faith than Me”, “Mortal Flesh” among others and his work in The Terman Generation is the stuff of legend.
Most importantly, his passion and relationship with Christ was always forefront in his life. He was an master theologian and always ready for a lively discussion.
We rejoice to know he is out of pain and in Glory

My condolences to his family. It’s always difficult to part ways with a loved one… but he’s with Jesus now and that is the beautiful news!

I had bought the first Betrayal cassette as a new release. He had a cool punk style name that was like the opposite of Johnny Rotten or Sid Vicious.
