Guru - R.I.P. April 19th, 2010

Dear Guru,
I first saw you rock out before Rage Against The Machine in Long Island.
Traveled all the way to Philly to see you once,
even saw you in New York City.
Waited outside a record shop for two hours in the summer sun just to give you daps.
For whatever reasons, you are gone now. Not forgotten.
The first time I played Moment of Truth, or the last time I put a needle to the Guru groove,
you were an inspiration.
Thanks for the memories
Sincerely,
Upperhands
