R.I.P. Levon Helm

I don’t have much to say here.  My busy life as a teacher made me miss this information all day yesterday and I am finding out just now.  It’s a truly sad day in the music world as we say goodbye to one of the greats Levon Helm.  The Washington Post actually has a pretty awesome recap on Helm’s life for those looking to know more about the legend.  Levon, I know that you didn’t necessarily support the way The Last Waltz turned out, but you sound damn good on this song my friend.  You were one of the reasons why I thought singing while I played the drums was cool despite what my friends said.  You will truly be missed.
