All they have to do now is dream.

Paul Cotton of Poco.  Just a few months after the other long time mainstay of the group Rusty Young. One of my favorites. Makes me sad. Great guitarist and great gravely voice to augment the other higher voiced singers in the group.

Wow. Loss of a legend.

RIP, Charlie.

Didn't think any of the Stones would die.  Well other than the one who did in the 60s.

Keith Richards will still be touring with the Stones in 2200.

I have a friend who has seen them live in six different decades.  He is trying to get tickets for this year's tour.  Which would make 7 decades.

David Patten - caught Brady's first post-season touchdown pass (Super Bowl 36). Across 12 NFL seasons, the 5ft 10in receiver played in 147 regular season games, claiming 324 catches for 4,715 yards and 24 touchdowns.

Remember him.  Must not have been very old.

was it Patten or Givens who signed with Washington? 

One of those two I think caught a touchdown pass in each of NE's first 3 Super Bowl victories.  Patten was not a star and definitely a product of Brady's success, but he was effective on the outside before Deon Branch. NE had mixed records with outside receivers, but Patten was better than a lot of bigger names and higher draft choices.

was it Patten or Givens who signed with Washington?[...] 

Patten played for the then-Redskins from 2005-06. (Givens only played for the Patriots and the Titans.)
