RIP Don Van Vliet, "Captain Beefheart"
This really has nothing to do with the subjects of this blog, but Don Van Vliet or "Captain Beefheart" was a huge inspiration for me, he changed the way I listened to music. I even have the cover of Trout Mask Replica tattooed to my leg. After a long battle with multiple sclerosis, Don died at the age of 69.
He will be missed.

For those of you that are interested in the man's life, but not his music (it is rather challenging) here's an excellent documentary available via youtube.
