***3. ARTICLES AND THINGS YOU NEED TO READ AND DO


Farewell to the Digital Guy.

Our good friend Bruce Nazarian died suddenly a couple weeks ago. Many of you knew him as the Digital guy or the DVD Guy and many others knew him as a musician. I knew him as all of those but mostly as just a friend.

He was a great friend to so many people and shared so much of his expertise with the community for so many years. His loss will be enormous and I for one will miss him terribly.

Rick Young has posted a ‘farewell” on his web site and I could not say it or show it any better.
