Sorry to hear about Don Everly as well. What's worse is it feels like there won't be anybody filling their shoes. Maybe there will be another genre yet to be created with a new cast of legends that emerges but the golden age of creativity for Rock and Roll is dying alongside it's innovators I believe.

He was always fun to watch, just quietly smirking behind all of the chaos.

No one could chew gum and drum at the same time like he did. Rest in Paiste, Charlie.

Charlie, Don and Tom T. Hall, all within a week.  :-\

The Stones were set to start their upcoming tour next month without Charlie, but you have to wonder if they'll continue without Charlie beyond that.

Sad. He seemed like a good guy. Rock solid drummer for sure. May he rest in peace.

Is he the first Stone to die since Brian Jones?
