Another year older

I did not know I shared a birthday with Robert Moog. (But psst, guys... that would be the late Robert Moog. Though his analog howl lives on, 'tis true.)

Happy Birthday! Yes, I'm a total stranger. But I stumbled on your web page and have given the Secret Society recordings a listen, and wow... just great stuff. Have a great one. :)

That's so cool! For some reason I've been thinking about Moog for the past couple of days. Absolutely no idea why. Maybe I picked up on your birthday vibes!

Hope it was a good one!

We were definitely aware of and saddened by Moog's passing but for some reason the database entry was never updated and for some equally inane reason I also missed your blogpost about this matter last year. We have a few conscientious readers who send me email reminders about stuff like this and it's extremely helpful. (I usually update errata the same day if I can.) It takes a village (as folks said back in the '90s when this database was first created) to maintain a birthday list of this size, as you might well imagine ;) Happy birthday!

Hey Frank,

Thanks for the birthday wishes, and glad to hear the Moog entry has been updated. Keeping the database up-to-date is a thankless task, I'm sure.
