The Privy Tippers rock the Tucson contra dance, Sept. 19, 2010. Merri Rudd calling. Two months later guitarist Craig Tinney suffered a motorcycle accident and became quadriplegic. Craig died today, June 29, 2010. A kinder soul there never was. Blog entry about Craig is at:

I was just sitting here working and listening to a Privey Tippers CD and wondered if they might be on YouTube. I found this video and read the horrible news of Craig's passing. I knew him slightly and thought he was an incredible human being. What a loss for Jaquie, and frankly the whole world.
