Oh shit. That was sudden. I used to watch him a lot on the Uncle Floyd Show. But I think the best was when he was a hit man hired to kill a cat on Tales From the Darkside.

He'd been ill for some time.

If you have not seen it watch Scorcese's "Personality Crisis: One Night Only"
(If you have, see it again)

Don't Avoid.......watch Uncle Floyd!

I worked with Scott Gordon for a while in the late 80s

My daughter worked for Friends of the Arts at Planting Fields. They had many great acts and shows there. She met David when he did the Buster Poindexter show. It was customary for the performers to have dinner with the staff before the shows. I told her who Buster actually was, and she said he was a very nice and down to earth guy.

RIP David/Buster.
