[edit] 1

The first Westerman image is an old news photo that has been around enough times it is likley public domain. His promoter might gladly release a more recent photo. Standard image placement conventions would have him looking on the page, from the left side, instead of with his eyes leading off of the page, but some people insist on an arbitary style in this document with all first images appearing on the right, so there it is.

This image came from http://www.american-entertainment.net/ artists/westerman/ but it is also at http://www.underground-book.com/chapters/uranium/FloydWesterman.html as a .gif. Perhaps it was taken at Salzburg in 1992.

[edit] Rumors of death

"Anyway, I just learned from a friend that Red Crow has died. He fought a hard battle - first with lung disease, he survived a transplant, and then was hit by leukemia. His friends stayed by his side, for weeks, now, never leaving him alone. After a ceremony in Los Angeles, his son will take him home, to South Dakota." - Chadlupkes (talk) 20:32, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
