   • 19/25 or 24/25?

     • 24/25 (I got one wrong)

   • My bad – it is out of 20. The others have been out of 25…

     • oh ok. I knew I had one wrong

2. Re: Dave Mason, rock n roll heaven just got a new addition.

   • I liked the death notice: “On Sunday, April 19, after cooking an amazing dinner with his beloved wife Winifred, he sat down to take a nap with sweet Star (the maltese) at his feet. He passed away peacefully, in his favorite chair, surrounded by the beautiful Carson Valley that he loved so much. A storybook ending. On his own terms. Which is how he lived his life right up until the end.”

     • <3 If you have to go, that's the way to do it.

3. 19/20… almost nailed it haha. Thanks as always

   • Yup – you beat me!

4. A very easy 20/20 with 4:05 left on the clock.
   Sad news about Dave Mason, although I heard the setting of his passing was very pleasant, with his family there and his dog at his feet. I saw him once, opening for comic Richard Lewis. He played by himself and his guitar playing & singing were fantastic. That was probably 30-35 years ago.

   • That sounds like a cool gig – before he joined Fleetwood Mac! I probably should have got 20, but made some dumb mistakes.

5. 20/20 with 4:22 left. Yes, unfortunate news about Dave Mason, though as you and others have noted, it was a peaceful death.

   • Great work – you’ve got the fastest time so far.

6. Score
   20/20
   Timer
   03:53 …. I never heard that about Mason…that stinks.

   • I guess he’s not quite famous enough for his passing to be headline news. I actually thought he was already dead – but i was mixed up with Wood and Capaldi, who died relatively young.

     I was just reading Capaldi’s bio on Wikipedia, seemed like a cool guy.

     “Outside his music and environmental activism, Capaldi also assisted his wife in her work with Jubilee Action to help Brazilian street children.”

     • For the longest time I only knew Mason for “We Just Disagree”… then I found out about Traffic. Hmmm, I don’t know anything about Capaldi.
       Yea that is a great thing. It’s always good to find out the person of interest is at least a good guy.
       Only one bio that I put down because the guy was so unlikable…. and that person was Jann Wenner.
