well hopefully he ain't in a burin ring of fire!
and we onlly lost sam phillips about a month ago too. johnny didn't last too long after june carter his wife and music partner tho' she only died 2 months ago. it seems the vanguard are all dying now. we were lucky to have them. but Mr Cash is a sore loss what a man, what a rock n roller!
interestingly enough after all the legendary recordings and money he made for his label they dropped him like a hot cake a couple of years ago cos Garth Brooks and his ilk were making the money, and only for the integrity of Rick Rubin, (who wouldn't let the unspeakble sacrilege occur and put him on his own label) would we have had any of the last years of works.
jus shows ya what an ungrateful and horrid fate awaits you, after all the hard years slogging, no rest fro the wicked, even if your a multi million selling genius.

the subtonics and the things hijacked a karaoke bar on oldham street manchester, the average age in the place was about 60, we subjected a bemused set of locals to our own brand of irish charm and basically caused havoc in the place...in the midst of the havoc however we made some good friends and won the hearts of many....shane walsh, drummer of the subtonics took to the stage in a blaze of glory and as his party piece sang a rousing version of 'a boy named sue' it was a loose but fitting tribute to a performer that has touched so many people young and old right up to the day of his death....it was your typical northern working class boozer....everyone in the place raised their glass in the memory of johnny cash. what a legend
