In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

As time passes, bands often see their original lineups change, sometimes drastically. Maintaining the same members over decades is rare, and health concerns can become a significant factor. While some musicians, like Willie Nelson, continue to perform into their 90s, others face the challenge of keeping the spirit of their bands alive despite aging or lineup changes.

My first time attending a show at the Bethel Woods Center for the Performing Arts in Bethel, New York, was on July 9, 2006, for the Phil Lesh & Friends / G.R.A.B. (Phish‘s Trey Anastasio and Mike Gordon and The Duo’s Joe Russo and Marco Benevento) tour. It was a confusing time for band members and Phish fans alike. Here we were less than two years removed from Phish’s messy breakup at Coventry, and Trey was leading a quartet of the same instrumentation as Phish, playing music that wasn’t exactly a massive departure from their sound.

The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”
