Gram's friend, Phil Kaufman, will be doing a Q&A tonight at 7pm at the Great Escape on Charlotte Ave. For those who aren't familiar, Phil notoriously stole Gram's body and attempted to honor his wishes by giving him a Norse burial at Joshua Tree.

Thanks for this post! Love Gram

I shouldn't, but I do get Gram Parsons, Gene Parsons (no relation, I think) and Clarence White all jumbled up. Maybe because they were all mixed up writing/playing for the same/similar bands at about the same time and with Clarence White tragically passing just a few months earlier.
