Yes, George was tough as well. I even posted a dedication to him on my website with the closing line "while my guitar gently weeps." Seemed appropriate.

Dayv, nice to see your avatar! Rock on!

For me, that was more a moment of profound disappointment, as in, "What did you go and do that for, George?"

Yes, it was. You got the impression that he was never fully appreciated by the industry or by the public, especially after the My Sweet Lord fiasco.

Can't say I'm familiar with the My Sweet Lord fiasco. Details?

I take it you've never heard of the Harrisongs court case. Harrison was accused of plagiarising the 60s hit He's So Fine by the Chiffons with the melody line of My Sweet Lord. Harrison lost, and consequently had to hand over all royalties to the original composers, even though his lyrics were completely different (it would have been more fair to give the composers 50%). A dark day in the music world.

Nope, never heard of it. When did it happen?

My most heartbreaking moments would be when John Candy died and when John Ritter died. Both of them died at a fairly young age. Oh yeah, John Belushi too! Hmm! It seems as though if your name is John, you might die soon.

Kinda sad that all of your breaking moments involve either TV, or movie stars. My heart breaking moment, I rather keep for myself.

I keep the personal ones to myself as well. I'm sharing ones that can, ideally, be shared by others. Not much point in typing up the ones that are only known to me.

I won't share the personal ones either; only public knowledge heart-breakers.

Well but since I have no "public heart-breaking" moment, only personal ones...

then you can share your personal ones if you feel like it, no pressure here... as if we COULD even coerce you to tell us your personal heart-breaking moments in this forum.

Oh ok, here's a very public heart-breaking moment: greedo shooting first. I think the Ultimate Edition should have Solo shooting Greedo nine times (same footage going back and again), just to compensate that.
