Surprising conversation with my husband tonight. He tried to tell me that Bun E. Carlos, drummer for Cheap Trick, was dead. Not just recently dead either, but several years dead.
Since Bun E. is my favorite drummer, I was doubtful. Surely I'd have heard about this, and didn't he just put out a solo album? But OH was insistent, so we checked. Fortunately for us as well as Bun E., he is indeed alive.
The weird thing about this is that not only did OH think Bun E Carlos was dead, he was also sure we'd talked about it at length. Now, I know I would have remembered ever having such a conversation. It would have stood out had it happened, but I can recall no such thing.
Now we're both wondering how this came about. Was it a very realistic dream? Or maybe OH slipped into an alternate universe for a minute? No idea, but for now we're happy that Bun E. still lives.
