Well hot damn.

Do you have any contact info for any of these folks? It's a holiday weekend so this story isn't going to get much movement tonight.

If so, PM me.

Thanks

(sorry, I'm a music reporter in Austin)

So he sued Wilco to try to pay for hip replacement surgery...

Now he dies?

What's going on?

Damn.

Not a huge Wilco fan, but this recurring stuff of lack of medical insurance stopping a needed procedure is ridiculous. The autopsy results should be interesting.

WTF?

This bums me out more than I'd ever have been able to predict. I always figured he'd eventually put out that killer album he had in him.

No shit.

Derogatis at the ChiTrib and Maura over at Idolator beat me, but other than that I fuckin' smoked the rest of the MSM.
Even beat Pitchfork by half an hour.

(still got the fastball)
