Welcome to the Lockn' Forum - The home of the original Lockn' Music Festival family!
Indeed. Here, it looks like Petty had his described opioids and added some "non-approved." Some friends of mine just last week lost their son, in his 20's, to opioid poisoning. They join a long list. Once we clamped down on the pharmaceuticals like oxycontin, the black market turned to home-made, notably heroin based, cheaper and easier to get, but unknown as to contents and strength. People coming out of rehab and relapsing go back to their last dose level, which they can no longer handle. No one knows what's in the stuff they take. One of my best friends lost both of his children (and one's girlfriend), four months apart, to the same batch of bad Molly. Tom Wolfe died yesterday. OK, not a musician, but his passing is worthy of note here due to his great chronicle The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test that brings to light the times of Jerry Garcia and so many others embedded in our psyche--Owsley's bear; the Merry Pranksters, and so much more. Please note: This forum is in no way officially associated with Lockn' Festival or its promoters.
RIP musicians

He was a real treasure.
This from my sister:
I thought you might like to know that Freddie died yesterday at the age of 89. His wife Vicki and I worked together, and I spent a good deal of time with them at Lime Kiln and porch parties. He was not only a musician and raconteur, but a descendant of Cyrus McCormick, inventor of the reaper, and quite wealthy in his own right. And he really did play music with some very fine musicians like Ralph Stanley, John Starling, Peter Rowan and others. He was a catbird, and I'm glad I got to meet him.
There's a fun Freddie story below from his son Seth.

Subject: Freddie Goodhart
Today, March 12, 2018, we lost a very, very special friend, Freddie Goodhart. Freddie and Vicki were vacationing in Florida when he suffered a brain hemorrhage this past Wednesday.
There are so many stories in Freddie's life and one of the best was Seth's way of telling everyone Freddie was gone via Facebook:
"Everyone listen - up!
Dad told me that on a bet, in the early sixties, he'd jumped onto the main track at Churchill Downs as the horses were rounding turn three, yes, during the Kentucky Derby. He ran as hard as he could, but the horses were gaining and the harder he ran the harder his flask , which was in his coat pocket, bounced off his chin. His initial gain transitioned to frightened grimace as the reality of his decision and rapidly approaching plight set in. With the crowd roaring and the ground rumbling, he spotted his out. A low point in the fence. He hurled himself over with everything he had, landed in a heap amongst a group of VIPs. He jumped up, tidied, turned and joined the fray as the lead horse crossed the line. When he turned around a good looking lady in a big hat offered him a julep...he claimed it was one of the hardest $50 (or maybe $500) he'd ever earned.
Freddie Goodhart
December 5, 1929 (when Hoover was president) - March 12, 2018"
Yes, he had a hell-of-a run! And we will miss him.

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.
It matters that you don't just give up.”

From the article:
In 1966, Mr. Wolfe climbed aboard a bus with an LSD-dropping coterie of hippies led by Ken Kesey, author of “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.” The Merry Pranksters, as they called themselves, traipsed around the country in search of enlightenment but often stumbled into misfortune and unintended humor.
In “The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test,” Mr. Wolfe described a surreal scene as a police officer pulled the bus over while a forest fire was in full blaze.
“By this time,” Mr. Wolfe wrote, “everybody is off the bus rolling in the brown grass by the shoulder, laughing, giggling, yahooing, zonked to the skies on acid, because, mon, the woods are burning, the whole world is on fire . . . And the cop, all he can see is a bunch of crazies in screaming orange and green costumes, masks, boys and girls, men and women, twelve or fourteen of them, lying in the grass and making hideously crazy sounds . . . So he wheels around and says, ‘What are you, uh — show people?’ ”

Glenn Snoddy, Nashville engineer who brought ‘fuzz tone’ to rock, dies at 96
By Terence McArdle May 30 at 3:33 PM
Glenn Snoddy, a Nashville studio engineer who built a pedal that enabled guitarists to create the snarling “fuzz tone,” unleashing sonic distortion possibilities that influenced generations of rock guitarists, died May 21 at his home in Murfreesboro, Tenn. He was 96.
Whenever you hear guitar distortion on a heavy metal or punk rock record, or the feral guitar of Keith Richards on the Rolling Stones’ 1965 signature hit, (“I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction,” you’re listening to the legacy of Mr. Snoddy, whose device allowed guitarists to go from clean to dirty picking at the tap of a foot.

Of course I always loved her music but gained a new appreciation from seeing the film and then following up on Muscle Shoals and the way she started and rose to well-deserved fame.
While a Muscle Shoals she worked well with that session guitarist, Duane Allman. Their version of The Weight is outstanding.
She will be missed but never forgotten.
