RIP to another generational icon. Rock on while we still can.

I liked how he would just close his eyes and play like he was in a trance. Glad I was able to see them a couple times in their heyday.

All of us wish we could live half the life he did. Congrats to Frank on a great run. Good luck on your next stage with Dusty.
