YOUR COMMENTS ON Robert Braucci

I am Bobby's older brother and was surprised and honored to see my brother remembered here.
I find it hard to believe that my baby brother has been gone now for 15 years, I miss his humor and talent everyday.
To up date your information, Bob was born on April 11, 1961.
Thank you again for allowing me to see that he is remebered by the people that he loved to spin music for.

Thanks for the update Andrew. Bobby was one of my favorite DJ's at Greg's Blue Dot. He knew how to keep the energy going, even when the song had a slower BPM. We all miss him very much.

I knew Bob quite well and photographed him many times over the years. I remember him spinning in CT for a time. He was always great about getting me on the guest list to THE SAINT when he worked there. He had a serious ear for music, and I still laugh over the times we went out on Sundays in Hartford, both of us standing there, shirtless. Invariably, drinks would be sent over to Bob, for him "and his friend."

He did have the hottest physique. A great model.
