RIP to an old friend of mine, Scott Phillips.  Nice to see him get this write up in the City Paper.

Chaz, I swear you've known more people that died in the past year than I've known to die in my entire life. Maybe you just know a lot more people than I do.

It's been a fucked up year.  A dangerous year to be my friend.

Haven't been in this thread in a while. Great dude/huge loss/amazing talent. There was a while there where I would run into him everywhere; always a fun person to chat up. You weren't at the memorial held for him in Takoma Park that week, were you?

Was unable to get to the memorial.  I had not spoken to Scott in a few years.  He was a hilarious and interesting guy.

Yeah, he kind of dropped off the face of the earth for the last year. Never expected he'd resurface like this.

I knew he'd gone back to hard drugs, so it wasn't that huge of a shock that this happened.  He'd put that stuff to bed for a long time.  It's a shame.
