Send good vibes: Elton John is seriously sick

Oh shit. We can’t afford to lose another legend in the game. Get well, Elton John!


Via entertainmentweekly:

Elton John canceled three weekend Las Vegas performances after being hospitalized with a serious respiratory infection. The singer originally developed the illness while performing at Caesar’s Palace last Sunday, but his condition worsened, forcing him to check in to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles yesterday morning for tests.

Radio legend Hal Jackson, the first African-American voice on network radio, died yesterday of undisclosed illness. He was in his 90s. Jackson began his career in Washington, D.C., as the first African-American play-by-play sports announcer. He moved to New York in the 1950s where he hosted three different radio shows, broadcasting a mix of jazz and conversation with celebrities. A big loss for all of radio. Goodbye and thank you from WNYC.
