Elvis' grandson. dead at 27

[Winston OBoogie]

sh*t man!  It's gotta be hard being the grandson of Elvis, I can't imagine what that'd be like.  Could anyone?

I spent a few years playing with Jason Bonham (son of Led Zep's John B.), and frequently bumped into Julian Lennon in my travels -  and no way would I have ever wanted to exchange lives with them.
Probably not even in the same league  as being Elvis' grandson...

Sad stuff:

More than a passing resemblance to grandpa in that photo.

What a shame.

Living in the shadows cant be a great upbringing for kids , just look at the hit rate of famous peoples kids for smack/crack/script abuse , I always knew fame itself was a poison chalice/double edged sword  so never sought it . Getting born into it , thats a tough hand of cards to be dealt for sure though. Money is no guarantee of happiness , money and fame is more often a recipe for disaster unless your a high functioning psycho  .
