Rick Snider, DC sports journalist and commentator. Also an expert on DC area history. He was a really good dude. RIP to a good guy who loved DC and its teams.

I saw them in concert at the Cap Centre on their “Breakfast in America” tour. It was a dynamic high-energy show. It was the first time I’d ever seen any kind of pyrotechnics at a concert.

Bloody Well Right. Supertramp was great.

A group I am embarrassed to have liked and seen in concert. Breakfast in America at the old Music Hall in Boston.

He was an enormous figure in the environmental movement.. not a gadfly. One of the major backers of the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), which is on any short list of the most important advocates on regulation from the green side

Redford's 2013 film about a man lost at sea, All is Lost, was phenomenal.

Hard to believe he and Newman only did 2 movies together.
