He's gone.

Carl Palmer broke the news on Facebook, I learned while on Yesfans this morning.

My GOD, this year sucks.

The show never ends though, even with the ringmaster gone.

I saw these guys at Indy, with a 70 piece orchestra and vocal accompaniment. In-credible!!

It's worse, sorry...

If you haven't heard, and I didn't until I was on Yesfans today...

Keith was suffering some nerve problem and depression and he couldn't play very well anymore...

yep...

He shot himself.

Can we all just have a telethon to throw a f$#@ing party and get over it?
