Oh no. David Johansen, gone. What a total rock star he was, and my little gang of punk rockers loved him. RIP.

‘Your mirror’s gettin’ jammed up with all your friends’ (Personality Crisis). Saw the Dolls at the old Victory Burlesque in 1972 or 73 (where, I believe, Rush was the opening act). As soon as it was released, the first LP was in high rotation for a long, long time. RIP David Johansen
Looks like it was October 27, 1973. Reasonably funny story.

I saw Rush when they opened for Nazareth a year later:
