Rick was a part of that era man. I love him. That's the deal. We age and become almost unrecognizable. Doesn't change who we were, or are. We each have these moments that are precious and meaningful us. That only we really grasp. The Band and Rick were a part of mine.Check out the song "Rick Danko's in Heaven" if you haven't already. Pretty cool.10 years ago

This is apparently a song that anyone with real soul can perform. So what if Danko is the best? He's sharing The Weight and the fun with others who want a cut of the fun! Still, n othing like a white boy with real soul!12 years ago

I think this is just awesome, i don't care how bad he looks (he doesn't even look that bad actually) just as long as he sounds good, which he does14 years ago
