That's the first thing I thought, too, Wario...

Sadly, it is true.

But, I have lots of great memories, like this one...

Damn that sucks. You could always rely on Clarence for some kick-ass brass on a Bruce track. RIP big man.

Rest in peace Big Man, a true rock and roll hero, a lover of life, people and music, the only three things which really matter.

Default Clarence Clemons R.I.P.

It is with great sadness today that I learnt of the passing of Clarence Clemons Saxophinist with the E Street Band.. I had the pleasure of seeing Clarence at Earls Court with The Boss and the original members of the E Street Band some years ago..

http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/...ry?id=13879041

Go watch "The Sun aint going to Shine any more" by Clarence on You Tube...

Truly magnificient...

Just like Dizzy Giilespie, Clemons was a name any true music lover knew.

RIP!

Very sad, had not long finished his autobiography and it does go into great length as to how close he and Springsteen were.

It did also document how much pain he had been in between the knee, hip and back operations.
