I've been thinking about Bruce a lot this past week. It's hard to get away from it. The worst time for me seems to be when I'm driving around in my car. That's when I listen to music the most. I have it on all day in my office but I can't really listen to it much...what with working and all. So, when I'm driving around, I tend to hear the songs and pay more attention to them. And, all week long, just about any good song made me think of Bruce. It's so very sad.
I went looking around the web and found last year's XLent cover story about house concerts. The featured concerts in the article were, naturally, Rouse House concerts. Sara Hickman talks about Bruce on her weblog here and here. She says that his funeral "was the most moving, and joy filled, funeral service" she'd ever attended. Agreed. It's clear that Bruce was very dear to a whole bunch of people.
Looking around some more, I found a couple more links of interest...
