David Joel Carter AKA Twank Whelan & half of Rogue Fungi with Ricky Mancini
I decided to add this as a News Item to the site, since we're all still clearly gutted by the loss of our friend, David Joel Carter AKA Twank... Thanks for sharing this Moe, as always, you are the Best Fan this site has ever had. (Jim)
When I awakened very early this morning I discovered the tragic news that a dear friend & very talented musician has left us & gone to that Great Gig in the Sky....thankfully Ron Bowes @ronbowes had posted in Mixstream on Facebook about this sad news...as RDB had not seen David lately, so he checked out his page on Facebook....where he read posts from family members re David's passing on 7/14/2022
David Joel Carter has been a really good cyber friend to me over the past year ~ I have enjoyed him, his humor, his music (in collaboration with Ricky Mancini in Rogue Fungi) & several other collaborations with other talented musicians on MixPosure....most of all, I have been blessed with his genuine friendship.
Being that I have not seen a Blog on MixPosure today about the loss of our fellow friend & musician....figured I would share my thoughts....possibly it is not my place to do so.....but, I felt a need to honor David ~ let us celebrate him & his life, his friendship & music & especially his love that he has blessed us with... Moe

Moe,a wonderful tribute for Twank.He will be missed.
His music lives on.RIP Twank. - April
A great tribute Moe to a great artist. I was also shocked to hear of David's passing. He had a one of a kind voice and his lyrics were always so well written with deep thoughts. RIP David (Twank).
