I was actually glad to hear he was dead. Then I realized I was thinking of Kenny Loggins.

Watch your back, Loggins!

Danny boy, certainly needed a beating; his brand of puss-rock was not kind to ears or machismo. Now I can move on to tracking down all the members of uber-puss-rock band "Bread," and asking them "How could you do this to music?" while beating them with a pipe.

For those keeping score...
Dan Fogelberg :( :( :(
Jack Lemmon :( :( :( :(
Bread :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(

I'm amazed at the general level of venom being spit over this topic . . . hard to believe this guy's music could make anyone feel anything other than boredom.

My hometown Peoria radio stations played the shit out of this back in the day and it was a real snooze.

Give me some pole-smokin' Billy Squire any day!

Dan Fogelburg's dad (aka the leader of the band) was my trumpet teacher when I was in 5th grade. Nice fellow. :(

Did I forget to mention that Dan Fogelberg killed my dog once?

Oh, for christ's sake. MACHISMO?! When the bloody hell was enjoyment of music about proving what a man you are? This is the same kind of mentality that turns people to ear-poison like Korn. Now there's a band I would rejoice over the collective gruesome death of. At least Fogelberg used melody. Don't get me wrong, Korn brought the respected and ancient art of growling and screaming to a new level. Call me crazy, but if music makes me feel good, I listen to it and bollocks to what anybody else thinks. If this makes me a big fag, at least I'm an intelligent and happy big fag. Now go beat someone with a pipe for not writing music that makes you feel like a troglodyte.
