I don’t like doing this kind of show. While I love to celebrate and showcase creative people, to talk about people we love, people we’ve rubbed elbows with for years, people who’re now gone from us, is very difficult. David Mirabella and Michael Gill, both of whom are long-time, well-loved and respected Boston bands folx. David Mirabella formed and lead The Rationales since 2007; Mike Gill played for The Damn Personals back in the day (and helmed a number of video productions throughout). Both passed away within one week of each other. Hug your friends.
