Strike 3,961 Posted December 14, 2017 Lead singer of the Smithereens. An underrated band. 2nd band I saw this year where the lead singer died, along with Tom Petty. http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/pat-dinizio-smithereens-singer-dead-at-62-w513988 RIP Pat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TommyGavin 788 Posted December 14, 2017 I was at a college in NJ working an event (South Orange ?) And someone saw I wore a guitar earring (it was early 90's FU) I was asked if I wanted to sit in with the band for sound checks. It was a great experience RIP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
