Man that's a bummer, he was a really good guy...They had some great music on their Sunday night show...
And he made it thru one final Christmas. Not sure he'll be able to sneak on to the 2023 "losses" list... Man it's been a rough year
A very talented Comedian with excellent timing... A Christmas staple...
Major Thomas B Smothers, the father of the comedy duo, was captured at Bataan. He was on the POW ship that was bombed and sank, and survived. He would die very late in the war being moved between camps.
Very sorry to hear that. I saw The Smothers Brothers with the Honolulu Pops in 2001 or so. They were hilarious and both were surprisingly good musicians too as they did a few serious songs during the show.
RIP.
They did that bit in Honolulu. They also brought out a kid who was a yo-yo champion who was amazing.
