When I boarded a plane in Mexico this afternoon wearing my Dead 60 Rock Med shirt, a fellow passenger thanked me for my service.
When I took my phone out of airplane mode, it blew up with the news… Dead 60 was the last time I saw him 💀🥀

This was my most powerful laminate for years. I got backstage flashing it more times than I can remember. It was the loudest show I’ve worked - up to 11! Rest in power, Rob Reiner.
