Just found out that Brian Rogers — Spanky Twangler of The Penetrators — passed away yesterday. The Penetrators were a fabulous surf band.
And Brian, he was a terrific person. I really enjoyed our sporadic, long-distance, email relationship over the years, and I wish I'd known him better. Having the band stay at my home during a pass through Chapel Hill was indeed a privilege, as is being a member of The Southern Surf Syndicate.
I admire Brian's faith, peace and determination throughout his illness even more than I've always admired his talent. He was a good one.
