Noted creeper Peter Bogdanovich.

It's a sin that obit leads with Paper Moon, which is swill. Pistol Pete's masterpiece was The Last Picture Show, which also gave him ahem access to Cybill Shepherd (21) when he was 32, following that up with Star80 (20) when he was 41 and then her younger sister (20) when he was 49. You never know who'll get one. He divorced her in 2001 I assume because she'd age out over 30.

Here's to a man with very specific tastes in age.

The "You Must Remember This" series about Polly Platt was illuminating.
 
Not a celebrity, but this being a hockey community I feel that Teddy Balkind, the high school player from Connecticut that died yesterday after being cut by a skate, deserves a mention here. Heartbreaking.
 
Michael Lang, 77, one of the promoters of the original Woodstock festival, and its sequels. You can see him in many scenes of the original concert film.
 
A 17-year old at Woodstock is now 70.

On the day of Woodstock, the people who were as old then as those who were at Woodstock are now, were born in the 19th century.
 
Dwayne Hickman -"Dobie Gillis" age 87. Probably more might know him from his role in Cat Ballou.

K: I was one of the physicians at Woodstock (in Bethel NY of course). Simply a fabulous experience with some of the best music I ever got to hear. Was able to sit with and party with many of the acts. And yes, I am well into my 70's. The various movies about the event can not come close to doing it justice.

I understand. I'll bet this was amazing too, and the people in their 70s during Woodstock would be reminiscing about it in exactly the same way -- the dates match.

As for the people in their 70s during the Aeolian gig, they'd remember this.

Time to turn the page as things are not still the same. I hope they don't toss his ashes against the wind and instead drop his urn into the ocean like a rock. The fire down below has gone out. No more Hollywood nights or night moves for old Bob. But you can still hear his old time rock & roll on the radio because rock and roll never forgets. What a beautiful loser. If it was an overdose then time ran out on him being a ramblin' gamblin' man. I wonder if his hotel was on mainstreet. Now that I think about it they should bury him in Katmandu since he was such a travelin' man. God finally told him to come to poppa because the fire inside has finally gone out. No more shakedowns he's had his famous final scene.


Yes I know it's not Bob Seger

SS: What really depressed me some years ago - I had given my daughter to bring into school a shirt from the festival that I had signed by most of the listed performers (Joe Cocker, Country Joe, Arlo Guthrie, Joan Baez, CSN and Y, Richie Havens, John Sebastien, Canned Heat, Ten Years After, etc etc etc. And no one in her high school class knew who anyone was and wondered why i would even have kept that shirt!
