Dennis Hoppper passes away and was a friend of ROCK BANDS by Lee Dahlberg...

I met Dennis at the Sundance Film Festival and he was very kind. He really liked his band after I told him the meaning of the stone. He was a screen legend and my favorite quote from him was on how he got started playing the bad guy:

"When I was in my 20s, I remember Vincent Price telling me, 'You should play bad guys. You're going to make a great bad guy. And I thought, 'Boy is he crazy. Just because he plays bad guys, he thinks I'm going to be playing bad guys.' But he was right. I make a pretty good living playing the bad guy."

Our thoughts with his children that he left behind.
