Karl woulda been 50 today, Here's to you Man!

After seeing the shows and recieving Gifts from Mary Beth, I would like to remember Karl.

Who's got Karl stories?
Would you look into my eyes if I were to go blind?

I'm wearing my best SA shirt today in honor of him. :D

Well Karl, I never met you but I wish I had had the chance. I hear you were one of the good ones. You may be gone from this crazy, mixed up world, but I know you're with us at every concert. I try not to cry whenever they do "Without a Trace" but sometimes I just can't help it. We love you!!

Also I hate to nitpick but he was born in 63 so he'd be 49 today.

I miss Karl. I like to think of him as a kindly but cool guardian angel of rock.

When Dave did the dedication before "Without a Trace" in NYC, he said, "This one's for our friend Karl Mueller, who couldn't be here tonight because he had a prior engagement." I think he was wrong. Karl was there. Karl's always there.

Happy birthday, Karl! We love and miss you.

Karl was a great guy. I'm glad to say I had the chance to meet him a couple of times., hard to find a nicer guy. He was in many respects the soul of the band. Even though his body may be gone, I still think he is the soul of the band. He loved the band more than anything, and kept the band together. After thirty years, I still think he's the reason the band is still together, and rocking out.

I'll have a beer now In Karl's honor.. Just the way he'd appreciate it, gone, but not forgotten.
