Mojo Nixon, the unapologetically brash musician, actor, and radio DJ, died of “a cardiac event” on Wednesday, Feb. 7, his family confirmed to Rolling Stone. He was 66. Nixon was aboard the Outlaw Country Cruise, an annual music cruise where he was a co-host and regular performer.
“August 2, 1957 — February 7, 2024 Mojo Nixon. How you live is how you should die. Mojo Nixon was full-tilt, wide-open rock hard, root hog, corner on two wheels + on fire…,” his family shared in a statement to Rolling Stone. “Passing after a blazing show, a raging night, closing the bar, taking no prisoners + a good breakfast with bandmates and friends.

We went to a shopping mall
And laughed at all the shoppers
And security guards trailed us to a record shop

His ode to Martha Quinn was good.
First Shane MacGowan at the end of November, now Mojo Nixon. The soundtrack of my college years is slipping away :(

So will Don Henley now sing, “Mojo Nixon Must Die”

He owes a lot to the Dead Milkmen for helping him sell a few albums and sell out shows.
Does this mean a third country star should be dying soon?
He sure didn’t like Trump though.
One night at Hole in the Wall, Henley ran up on stage and they sang Michael Bolton must die.

Ray Wylie Hubbard has fourth billing on that cruise.
Saw him January 26th in Bertram, TX at The Globe Theater. Good show. Last year at Gruen Hall, an excellent show.
Well that’s some bummer news to close the day out.
All I can say is Elvis is Everywhere...
I’ll play “I Ain’t Gonna P**s in No Jar” in his honor.
Elvis-lution has hit a snag.
