 Pattern ≡ NO CASH = NO HOPE

but hope died first.

Shame on John Ritter for dying and trying to steal the spotlight from JC. The same John Ritter who tried to steal the spotlight from the great Joyce DeWitt for so many years.
 
    I still haven't had a life altering concert experience, but truly the best was the first time I saw Johnny Cash live. Thank you to all at the 9:30 Club who made that dream come true.

Nobody can steal the spotlight from ol' JC, he is with you everywhere.

I grew up listening to my Johnny Cash 7"'s on my little Pinocchio recond player.  Will have to dig some of them out to play this evening.

Well, the Monkees did have a mancunian singer so your point is well taken.

Talk about bad luck for a second-tier celeb to die that same day as an icon like Johnny Cash dies.  Darby Crash had the misfortune of dying the same day John Lennon was killed.
 
 Johnny Cash had so many fans.  It's a sad day.

Do you think God will let us trade Mr. Cash for Willie Nelson?

Definitely not the way I wanted to wake up this morning.  
 
 The worst part was ABC News gave Ritter's Obit before The Man in Black's.  Please.
 
 Has anyone put on Cash's most recent album since his death?  The man has come around...
 
 RIP JC

I don't own any Johnny Cash stuff, but really do appreciate how he influenced how many musicians I love.  I am familiar with a bunch of his stuff, and he was one badass...real talent.  I feel bad for his family...first June Carter, now this.

Aw man.  I cut a class today and listened to Folsom Prison straight through with a couple of friends.

How sad! In the past 11 months, We lost Jam Master Jay, Nina Simone, Sam Phillips, Warren Zevon and Now Johnny Cash. It's a great lost in the world of music. Too bad we'll left with crappy excuses for artists.

I saw RunDMC at one of their last concerts even.  Glad I got the chance.  Over the last year or so I have been lucky enough to check off quite a few acts from my "Want to see them at least once" list.

 Starring:  Mark Collie
 Directed by:  John Lloyd Miller
 Distributed by:  IFILM
 Genre:  Drama, Drugs
 Run Time:  15 Min  
 Release Year:  2003  
 
 Synopsis:
 This scene from the life of great American icon Johnny Cash offers an explanation as to how a man with great sensitivity, integrity and humanity can be blown off course by a hole in his heart. Always rooting for the underdog, always mindful of the monkeys on the backs of people who're just trying to live their lives, Johnny Cash is shown here struggling with his own twin demons: loneliness and emptiness. Here's to the man who mined his own well of fear to create art that could touch the hearts and minds of anyone who'd give him a listen.
