Gina is putting together a timeline for something so she looked up a Tom Petty concert we went to back in the Colorado days to get the exact date to use as a reference point. She was reading about it and mentioned that Chris Whitley had opened the show.
I hadn’t thought about Chris Whitley in years, and honestly I had forgotten we had seen him, but I immediately remembered there being a song of his that I really liked. I did a quick search and recognized this one as the one I was thinking of. Such a great song, glad to have it back in my brain and in the listening rotation.
I hadn’t realized that he had passed away of lung cancer in 2005 at the age of 45, so very sad.
Fuck Cancer.
