Oh, no.  I was just thinking of the Big Man a couple of hours ago as I was driving home and heard a live version of "Born in the USA" on the radio.  I was hoping he would recover enough to play like that again.  This is sad and shocking news.

This has really fucked me up. Before I was even cognizant of rock and roll, I knew who Bruce and Clarence were when I was a small child. We have truly lost one of the great ones... a Big Man with an even bigger heart and soul. Rest well, Clarence... you have certainly earned it.

Soundboard recording of Clarence rockin' w/The Grateful Dead. Songs with the #1 next to them. (He may play on more songs then indicated, such as Going Down The Road Feeling Bad, I'm listening now and he's all over it)

I am crying.  WHAT A HUGE LOSS AND TOTALLY UNEXPECTED!!  I treasure all the times I've seen BIg Man play with Bruce.    I am so glad I went to see Big Man play with Bruce in Baltimore in 2009.

HUGE FUCKING SHOCK.   I can't absorb it.

Did he have kids...how tragic on Father's Day...

This one hurts. I was afraid that the lack of recent news after the initial statement was a bad sign. This man fought so hard toover all his ailments and kept the best spirits all the way through. Fuck this really hurts. RIP Big Man.

Yeah it does FG. This one really gets me. I was so happy to that I went to as many shows as I did on the last 2 tours. My last memories of Clarence will be the 2 incredible shows I saw in Mansfield,MA.
