MathOfInsects Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Crap. A personal favorite. Many good wishes his way. Lung cancer sucks, lost my dad to it. Life would be so much better without all the dying. Maybe in the next OS they can fix that bug. Now out! "Mind the Gap," a 24-song album of new material. www.joshweinstein.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marzzz Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 That's so sad....I have been fortunate enough to see him several times up close and personal at NAMM; he usually makes appearances (both scheduled and impromptu) at the Moog and DSI booths.

Analogaddict Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Oh no... Stage four. That's no good. I hope he gets the album out and I really hope he knows the impact he's had on music. I saw him a couple of years ago with Parliament/Funkadelic and he was amazing. [video:youtube]nPdhrrSQY5I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yannis D Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Yes, unfortunately. There was a discussion whether he should be treated in the USA or in Cuba. I wish him the best, the music world needs the genius Be grateful for what you've got - a Nord, a laptop and two hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
