    More sad news this week! BTO was the first rock band I really got into. R.I.P. Robby.

    I got to see BTO once at an outdoor venue. Rob played the drums so hard I could feel the beat in my chest. Thanks for the music, Rob. Rest in peace.

    What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it brings forth a sound (2112)

    It still is all over the place. Randy made a ton of money off of that song. But I could go the rest of my life never hearing it and I would not miss it.

    I saw the original band reunite in many years ago and they sounded great. I got a very nice recording, too.

    The only song I know by them is 'You ain't seen nothing yet'. I think their only hit in The Netherlands.

    Sad news and weird to realise he was only 6 years my senior, while 'You ain't seen nothing yet', seems to be a song of my youth.

    Sad to hear. He left us at a young age. The music lives on. Thanks for the music. RIP

    I understand the other/thir,d Bachman brother, Tim, is now deceased as well (this w-e).

    RIP, of course.

    The older Randy must wonder when his turn will come.
    my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.

    Wait, what? I don't think I knew that Rob was gone, and now so is Tim?! Man. I'll have to put BTO II on in their memory.
