I’ve Been Feeling Brian All Around Me Of Late
And I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel about that.
Brian and I were on again and off again for over 30 years. When he was married I was single and vice versa. Finally, in 2012 I was divorced and he was in the process of getting one. After all that time, we were going to be together.
Sunday, April 22, 2012, Brian died of a heart attack as he slept.
Brian was around 22 or 23 when we met. I was 17. I had written (even way back then yes I was a writer) a PSA for a non-profit. They wanted me to record it. It took them 2–3 weeks and a tour of the local radio station, WSUX-FM, before I would give in and do it. When I did the tour I met Brian in passing. He was one of the DJs. When I returned a week later to do the recording the old station manager was gone and Brian had taken his place.
I would be in the recording booth with B.
I was surprised that it only took me a couple of takes to get it done. The high school that I attended had its own in-house radio and TV station…
