Remembering Elliot Smith

LAist: Elliot Smith and the Big Nothing

Five years ago today, on October 21, 2003, Elliott Smith died. The intentions behind his death still not been confirmed, but some time that day, Elliott met the Big Nothing.

I am still saddened to see that the facts surrounding Elliot's death are still sketchy. That has to be rough for his family. In honor of his memory, I've been listening to his posthumous release, New Moon, which gives a good retrospective of his work. Here's to you, Eliot.

I remember being in an internet cafe in Rome when I read the news. "What the?!" Something big and crazy happens any time I leave the country.

1995 - Oklahoma City bombing
1997 - The comet and Heaven's Gate deaths
2003 - Elliott Smith dies / Supermarket Strike / Massive LA fires leave ash all over the place
2008 - World Banks collapse
