WTF? Another star has passed, also aged 80. Tim Curry, famous for the legendary Rocky Horror Picture Show and for the song "I Do The Rock" has left us. He was just a sweet transvestite from transsexual Transylvania. Thanks for the laughs and the music. RIP Dr. Frank-N-Furtur.

Sad learing about Dave Kendall's passing today. He brought us all a lot of great music on MTV's 120 Minutes, and I had the real pleasure to share the airwaves with him for a decade on @SIRIUSXM @1stwave when he followed my show with Party 360. He'll be missed. Rock in Peace Dave.
