For those who watched The Speaks Brothers Band....Very Sad News

For those of you who have had the pleasure of seeing the boys play in the past, I am sorry to say that Rick Speaks was killed in a single car accident last week. He was my friend and my brother and I will miss him. For those that remember, you can check some original songs from recent days on youtube under my name, varanus1, or look for speaks brothers band or rick speaks.

It's always so sad to loose a fellow musician. My thoughts are with you and his family. Remember that his music will always be with you.

Robert, thanks for posting. I was in shock when I got your PM earlier, and am still in shock. How very sad. I'll never forget the fun times Dave and I had at Fitzgeralds listening to the Speaks Brothers with you and Sandy.

Edited to add: Rick is probably serenading the angels with "Copperhead Road."

How awful. We also saw them at the Fitz one night a few years ago and appreciated their great music.

i can remember all your posts about them. sounded like a great time.
I never saw them. i really am sorry for the loss.

How tragic! May peace and comfort find his dear friends and family. We loved them and enjoyed thier show at Fitz, many, many times. Great energy and talent.

RIP

This is terrible.
I am so sorry for your loss, Robert, and for everyone who enjoyed their music.
I recall Sue Casey posting years ago how good they were.

So Sorry for your loss.
