This is ridiculously cool for me, though it might not sound like anything to others:

Glenn Cornick was the first bass player for Jethro Tull, and probably the band's best all-around bassist (except perhaps for John Glascock, who is also deceased).

Glenn Cornick's son, Drew Cornick, who's a "friend" of mine on Facebook, commented on a photo of myself that I uploaded yesterday. Of course, I don't know Drew - I imagine he accepts friend requests from people who are huge Tull fans, and fans of his father, which I am (I'm also a bassist) - so I thought it was really, really cool that my post not only wound up in his radar, but that he actually took the time to comment.

Drew's comment on my photo was: "Looks like Hunter S. Thompson with slightly a bit (sic) more hair."

Ah, well. I would have preferred: "Looks like Hunter S. Thompson a young Yul Brynner with slightly a bit more hair." - but what can you do?
