Just got unconfirmed word from an email that Sumner Crane of Mars died last week of lymphoma. Anybody have any idea if it's true? If it is, it makes me very sad.

very very very sad. I always thought that if I could find a bunch of likeminded people to start a band, the kind of band I'd _really_ like to sound like would be some combination of Mars, Eggs and Sun City Girls...

heh, never heard any mars but I was just listening to some Ut and harry pussy yesterday

what r the eggs like?

This is sad news. One of the most incredible vocal performances EVAH is Sumner's on 'Helen Fordsdale' it never fails to give me goosebumps.

Douglas, do you mean the Eggs that recorded for Teenbeat?

yes, this is sad. i just got 78 last week, mighty fine no wave alb. great vocalist, the Marc Bolan of no wave?
