brownie Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 This is such sad news. Dr John is a favorite of mine. Saw him several times over the years, once at Tipitinas. I’ve been listening to Gris Gris this evening... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oil Can Boyd Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 The first concert I ever saw was Dr John opening for the Jerry Garcia Band. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GtrPlyr Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Such a great musician, what a loss. I moved to New Orleans last year, had hoped to one day see him perform somewhere, though I knew it was a long shot from what I heard from a couple of musician friends that knew him and the state of his health..Thanks for the music Mac!

RainDogToo Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 This is a rough one. I was lucky enough to see him perform a few years back in all his Voodoo splendor, but I had always wished to see a show of his in New Orleans. There will never be another like him. He was the last of the best, he was the Gris Gris man. R.I.P Good Doctor Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Boss_Tweedy Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Been a tough week for New Orleans with the loss of chef Leah Chase and Dr. John. Those two are irreplaceable. I met Leah Chase once. Her smile said everything a person needed to know about her. She was such a sweetheart. I'm not a huge fan of Dr. John's music, but I respect it and appreciate that I'm very much in the minority with that opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
