Roxy Music – “2HB”

Oh I was moved by your screen dream
Celluloid pictures of living
Your death could not kill my love for you
Take two people romantic
Smoky nightclub situation
Your cigarette traces a ladder
Here´s looking at you kid
Celebrate years
Here´s looking at you kid
Wipe away tears
Long time since we´re together
Now I hope it´s forever

Ideal love flies away now
White jacket, black tie, wings too
You gave her away to the hero
Words don´t express my meaning
Notes could not spell out the score
But finding not keeping´s the lesson
Here´s looking at you kid
Hard to forget
Here´s looking at you kid
At least not yet
Your memory stays
It lingers ever
Will fade away never

You will be missed

Hope you are at peace now.

Dammit...

I respect him more in his recent losses for trying to fight his way back than most fighters who coast to victory.

Man, this is hard to take in. I read his blog everyday, it’s like I know him personally. So many people will never know what it is to really live – Evan Tanner lived life to the fullest.

Sad Day

Evan was the most open and honest fighter in the biz. May he rest in peace and be remembered for overcoming challenges and inspiring us to do the same.

My own two shots

I shot these for ESPN in advance of the autograph session at UFC 84; it was the first time I had met Evan and, little did I know, it would be the last time. He was very obliging and took my direction to the letter during the two-minute shoot… I’m sorry to hear that he’s gone.

Nice shots. Thanks for sharing.
