Sad member news (RIP BBTownBomber/Elizabeth Reed)

Adding onto this post as a cool thing happened this morning. One of our new Christmas traditions is to bring the turntable and speakers that my boys bought me for X-Mas (years ago) upstairs to spin tunes. Which means carrying BBTown's albums upstairs that he gifted me 4-5 years ago.

Then this piece of paper fell out and onto the floor while carrying the records...on Christmas Day. Presumably hand-written by BBTownBomber? It's Denny's way of saying Merry Christmas - as long as I didn't fuck up the grammar and spelling.

Always knew he had great taste in music!

RIP Bomber

You have no idea. He did his vetting. LMAO

We had a back and forth DM...and when I committed to accept and honor them, I didn't hear back for a long time. But never re-messaged until one day he said. "Hey, I'm going to be in Omaha to visit my son - will you be around?"

They're near and dear and that he wanted them to go to someone who enjoys music. I'm mindful to pay him homage as TPB and previous message boards have been a significant part of my life for 20+ years. When someone passes, it's like family.

Just got my first ever record player today. I had forgotten that Bomber have you so many records. I think that was a topic of conversation when we all got together in February 2023.

I remember that night, but think you showed late and I left shortly after your arrival. IIRC. @...TrueColors... and @LoudHogRider were also there with BBTown. Hope I didn't miss anyone.

@Jim14510 was there at the end. He was tired as hell as it was in the heart of his busy season. I was upset that I missed @HCFord1 that night. My son was there too giving Bomber and @LoudHogRider a hard time.

Those were the nights that Bomber was completely in his element and you got the best of him. Miss the man dearly. Hopefully his family is doing well

Yeah, Jimbo was there too. I just bought a river cabin out by Jimbo's hometown on the Platte River. The Yutanians...
 
I'll be at the tail tmmw and next weekend as well.

rip denny!
If you don’t dip your sweet potato fries in the marshmallow dipping spice, yore dead to me!

Seriously, enjoy. It’s been a few months since we’ve been there for lunch or dinner. I used to taunt Denny by sending him pics of the menu or my dipping sauce.

Missing my buddy this holiday season, and hoping his lovely bride has found a way to move forward with her life.

I hate to say it… but I think the tail has kinda gone downhill 😭😭

There’s a new place in Logan called Taproom 1890 that’s not too shabby. If you’re riding the bike through town let me know!
