The Firesign Theatre, after all these decades, will no longer be complete. Sad news yesterday that Peter Bergman has died in Santa Monica. So glad I saw all four original members several months ago in Seattle, and last year in L.A.
I remember talking with him in Ann Arbor in the 70s, at WCBN-FM and at surroundings – he was the intellectual of the group, knowledgeable about everything from science to politics to, of course, the absurd. Just blogged with him last month – still pontificating delightfully at age 72. See last post for my tribute after the Seattle concert.
