Man this was out of the blue after his blessing on Easter. I’m not Catholic but he was a decent man.

Now we can go back to the pope deciding it was time after a brief introduction to JD Vance.

A professional skeptic, he took on hundreds of mysteries, offering rational explanations for the Loch Ness monster, the Shroud of Turin and countless hauntings.

So it's before COVID and I'm at the incredible SF Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, seeing Joe Jackson, Boz Scaggs, Paul Weller, and rushing like crazy to catch Robyn Hitchcock.
and, in front of me is...
"CLEM BURKE!"
and he looks up, distracted. "Yeah?"
"uh...well done. Great tunes..."
and he moves on to wherever he's going. Leaving me a little pissed.

I didn't go "BLONDIE!"
I didn't go "BLONDIE DRUMMER!"
I knew his fucking name. I deserved more for that.

Saw him near Big Lake, CA, when they opened for Todd-fronted The New Cars. Lackluster start by Debbie but by song three I said out loud..."Oh yeah. They were pretty close to a punk band back then." They cranked, and Clem was part of the reason. Great tunes.
