He was one of the first singers I (and my twin) gravitated to when we started listening to music on the radio. He will be missed.

Kenny was like, the Pearl Jam of my Mom's generation.
Or wait, maybe Kenny was to my Mom's generation as Pearl Jam will be to by son's generation. Yeah. Either way, he was one of my Mom's favorites. I've seen him at least twice that I can remember. She always spun those records. Six Pack was one of the first movies I saw where I was like, "Wow, someone famous is in this movie." Always an Icon. RIP

I was traveling in Asia and saw a Kenny Rogers Roasters restaurant (forget the country). Threw me for a loop.
Yeah, I'll admit it, enjoyed some of his music in my younger days. RIP. Last edited by Edward64 : 03-21-2020 at 08:41 AM. |

He’d had some terrible plastic surgery, it’s going to take more than death to knock the smile off his face.

My dad loved his music, I listened to a greatest hits album of his a ton as a result growing up.
