idunno. i haven't seen any of this coverage. but then,
i don't go looking for it. lesse, google news shows
635 hits. is that high, low, or nermel? 136,000 hits
for iraq, 177,000 for bush, 613 for carrot top. for
music fans my age, moog was just below god in stature.
i know my life would have been different without him.
moog was the reason i learned to play keyboards. i
probably never would have been in a band without his
influence, then. my interests in music had a lot of
influence over developing my attitudes about politics.
i may have been complacently contented with bob moog.
moog was the reason i became interested in
electronics. that interest determined where i went to
college (or at least, made the option palatable) and
what i did there. that determined what i'm doing right
now. bob moog, i blame it all on you. the fucker.
