Man. This one is tough to type out. Normally I join @FredFaour every Thursday for his podcast. Today he never texted me the link and didn’t respond to texts or phone calls. I just got news that Fred has passed away. I don’t have a lot of details, but obviously devastating.

An example of the heart of @FredFaour My kid had been getting good at guitar a couple years ago, and his favorite guy was Eddie Van Halen. Fred said he wanted to give him something. Sent him this classic Charvel that he’d had 30+ years. Because he wanted him to keep playing!
