I’m on “special assignment” the rest of this week. That’s right, another marathon temp gig. I’ll report when I can.

UPDATE: Karen Hansen has some newer info about the late local rock singer Ian Fisher:

“Earlier this evening, I got a call from Jack Hanan, long-time friend and former bass player of the Cowboys. Jack had spoken with Ian’s brother and relayed the following:Ian Fisher had a heart attack in his beach hut in Thailand, in the company of friends (not on a bus)

.

His body has been cremated, per Ian’s wishes, and we’re not sure if he is in Seattle yet or not. His ashes will be scattered in San Diego and Aberdeen.

A memorial event, complete with a big jam session, is in the planning and we’ll keep you posted on the date.”
