R.I.P. Earl Scruggs

Post by Patchez »

I heard on the news over the 'lectric radio that Earl Scruggs has passed along to the big hoedown in the sky. He will be missed. That man could tear hell out of a banjo.

RIP Earl.

it wasn't until he was gone that I realized virtually every piece of banjo music I'd ever heard was played in the Scruggs style. Damn.

ten years ago i was a semi-dysfunctional drunk. today i am a refined product of a decade of practice and determination. now i am a functional alcoholic, a title that commands more appreciation than the one former one. fucking bottoms up.
my drink types are a cyclical device of life, and thus in line with pretty much every other circle-jerk function that provides timing between one drink to the next.
