I'm sorry to begin this thread with the announcement of the death of Eric Shaun Lynch, known to many Stern fans as Eric the Midget, or Eric the Actor.

True story, the Stern Show arranged for Eric to have a bit part in Breaking Bad. But he resisted travelling to New Mexico because he was afraid of werewolves. Apparently he believed that New Mexico was rife with lycanthropes.
Heh. I don't make it into this forum very often (read: ever).
Still gonna miss the little guy. Thank God Brant locked up that other thread! ::)
Too bad that they didn't get him out to the Bunny Ranch again. Well, at least he didn't have to move back in with his folks.
What did he die from? How old was he?

His conscience dwarfed his need for punnery.
So much for small victories...

These tiny puns have in no way mini-mized the depth of my sorrow over the loss of Eric the Ack-Ack Actor. :crazy2:
^ True. It's a small mind that doesn't appreciate his contributions to the world.

The Howard Stern Show made the guy's life a wee bit better.

Really? I listened to "Opie Radio" - they had Billy Idol and Joe Perry on there.
Billy Idol did both shows on the same day?
Yeah, it's not surprising. O&A (now just Opie and Norton) would often get into fascinating conversations with some of these guys then have to end it saying, "oh, they're telling us you gotta wrap it up and go." Usually because they have other interviews.
Stern is on SiriusXM, as is Opie Radio, so no doubt they make the rounds and have schedules to keep.
Joe Perry was on Stern earlier this week. Same with Robert Downey Jr. O0
They were both pimping books they wrote (well, Idol wrote his, don't know if Perry did or used a ghostwriter).
And now Neil Young! Sure he's promoting a book, and Pono, but Neil freaking Young!!! :smitten:

Is that the state mandated Canadian love for a Canadian performer? Or do you really like Neil Young?
I really like Neil Young. FYI, Justin Bieber &Celine Dion is are different stories!
I really like Neil Young, too. After the Gold Rush is one of my favorite albums.

Riddle me this. Without Googling, what's the double E?

Dunno.
It's a ranch in Greendale, the fictional California town that his Greendale album takes place in.
I wonder how far Greendale is from Charming? ???
