For anyone out there, I have started a Memorial Website for Scott and it can be found at the following link:
http://scottschneck.legacy.com/lmw/Homepage.aspx.
It is a public site which does not expire and can be changed and added to very easily. It is a place to honor Scott’s life, with your personal stories, pictures, and thoughts. The site is still in its infancy and could really use your help. Please take a moment to visit and share your memories of Scott.
God Bless...

Hardly a day passes when you do not enter my thoughts... sometimes with tears, and other times with laughter, but always with love. I long for our friendship and I miss our shared laughter terribly.
I spoke to a man the other day who reminded me so much of you. His wit and intelligence brought a smile to my face and warmth to my heart. Regardless of the similarities though, no one will ever be exactly as you were; for you, Mr. Scott Sage Schneck, were indeed one of a very special kind.
I pray that wherever you are this message of love and friendship reaches you.
Always, Stacey

It has been one year and I still miss you. I am so happy that I was able to be apart of your life and witness you take his last breath. Your final days where so hard but I am so glad I was there with you, to help you, to love you, to hold you, to watch you go be with your Jesus. I've learned so much from you, Scott. One of which is strength I never knew I had. Thank you Jesus for the five years I got to be in Scott's life. Your angel~ Sara

I moved out of the Allentown/Bethlehm area & did not hear of Scott's passing until last night when I was with my family at Musikfest (of all places!). I sang with Scott in Family of Strangers and I am truly saddened to hear of his illness & passing. Lori, Sarah, boys and family...our deepest thoughts & prayers go out to you at this time. I'm singing my own songs now & was inspired by Scott to do so. Much Love...

My sympathy and condolences go out to Scott’s family and friends. Many people share your loss and grieve with you. He was a good man and I am sure he is in Heaven with God watching over us all.
I truly miss Scott.
I lived with Scott for a while on the south side of Bethlehem. We had a lot of fun there and Scott was integral assisting me in the realization of some personal dreams. For this I will forever be grateful.
The DLB show on Saturday night was bittersweet. It brought back so many wonderful memories that I am still reeling. Earl, Matt, Lori, Albert, Nick, Jesse, Sara - Thank you for being there that weekend. I never really had a chance to express to all of you just how much Scott meant to me and how knowing him changed my life forever for the better.
Scott enjoyed a reckless abandon and being challenged on stage – and he was always willing to invite someone onstage to join him. In reality, he was teaching people how to communicate using the beautiful language of music and daring them to have fun while they learned. This always brought out the best abilities in those who joined him onstage.
Thanks to the DLB for performing again. Everyone played so well and we all basked in this inspired performance. I give special thanks to Pete Cline for his tribute appearance. I saw him take a deep breath before he had to perform the first guitar solo of the evening. You did great Pete, and I’m sure Scott was smiling as he still inspires and challenges from above.
I also wish to echo the sentiments that Paco, Jim Loftus, Stacy Eck, Lori Hentzel, and Matt have posted in this guest book. Many things I couldn’t have said better. Anyone who wishes to share stories/photos/sadness with me may contact me at the email address listed below.
To Scott:
Thank you for teaching me to not be afraid to tell the people I love that they are loved. I’ve learned my lesson well. I love you and miss you terribly.
BIG LOVE to all.

My sympathies to Sara, Lori and the boys. I was so glad to meet you last night. That was an awesome show and I wish scott could have been there. The night brought back many good memories of the Parkway shows and bars around Allentown and Emmaus.The last time I saw Scott was when I went to see Steve Brosky play at the Red Rooster and Scott was sitting around and started to play with Steve.Long time ago ! I grew up in this area and have lived in Florida since 1981 and I'm so glad I just got back into town yesterday in time to see The Tribute show to Scott. I had the best time !! Keep on Rocking Scott.

Scott, you didn't know me, but I used to love coming out to hear you and the band. I remember coming to see you all at the Springhouse Tavern in Hellertown among other places. God bless!

I was close to Scott in the late 70's. Somewhere between Stonehenge and Daddy Licks. I can remember hanging out at the "farmhouse" and later at his apartment on 7th street. I was amazed not only at his musical ability, but also at the fact he took his guitar everywhere.Literally. He used to serenade me while he was on the toliet. He was a crazy older "brother" that I looked up to and adored.
Many times over the last 30 years something(usually food) would bring back memories, and for a moment, I'd smile to myself, wonder how he was,and pray that Scott was safe, happy, and healthy. Hearing of his passing floored me. Had I known he was sick, I would've felt compeled to get in touch, and bring some happiness to him for a change.
To his Family, My deepest sympathy.Please take comfort in knowing that many people loved him. Scott made an impact on everyone he met. To Scott, a stranger was just a friend he hadn't met yet. He will be sadly missed.

WHEN I SAW THE ARTICLE ABOUT THE REUNION I THOUGHT GREAT I'LL GET TO SEE THE BAND AND SEE SCOTT, IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME. THEN I CONTINUED TO READ THE ARTICLE I FOUND OUT THAT HE HAD PASSED, JULY 5TH, WOW, WHAT A SHOCK. I KNOW WHEN SOMEONE IS SICK HOW THIS STILL COMES AS A SHOCK, I HAD NO IDEA. I LOST MY SON 13 YEARS AGO, AND SECRET TEARS STILL FLOW, HE WENT TO SCHOOL AND NEVER CAME HOME. A NICE POEM ABOUT THIS IS "IF TEARS COULD BUILD A STAIRWAY". I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER SCOTT CHANGING HIS HAIR COLOR, HAVING TIME TO TALK TO SOMEONE HE'S ONLY MET A COUPLE OF TIMES, YOU WILL BE MISSED. YOU LOOKED AT HOME WHEN EVER YOU PERFORMED. I WILL TREASURE THOSE MEMORIES AND THE GOT WHEELS ALBUM FOR A LONG TIME. SCOTT YOU HAVE A STRONG FOLLOWING OF LOVED ONES AND I'M SURE THE ONES YOU LEFT BEHIND WILL ALWAYS LOVE AND MISS YOU. MY DEEPEST SYMPATHIES TO YOUR FAMILY. I KNOW YOU ARE IN GOOD COMPANY IN YOUR NEW HOME. THANKS FOR THE GOOD TIMES.

The news of Scott’s illness and soon to follow passing has been devastating. Although he has never been far from our hearts and minds, his physical distance over these past years has only made the reality of his death that much more unbelievably hard to accept. Selfishly there may have been some comfort in realizing the severity of his condition much sooner... perhaps those that loved him could have helped him or his family in some way, or if nothing else had a chance to say goodbye to our dear friend. Yet, knowing Scott, being fussed over in that manner would have been the last thing he’d want...and, sadly enough, all the outpouring of love and care still could not have saved him from the grip of this insidious disease. Despite this tragedy, there is some comfort in knowing that he had a wonderful support system comprised of his wife, family, music, and faith in God throughout this incredibly difficult time.
My deepest sympathy goes out especially to Scott’s three wonderful sons who he loved with all his heart and soul. Scott’s sarcastic wit, intellect, and the sound of his laughter and music will be forever missed by so many...Including me. My prayers are, and will forever remain, with Scott and all of us who loved him well.

Many Blessings,

I had the pleasure of playing with Scott many years ago. Being a guitar player myself, I know what a great guitarist Scott really was. I had no idea that he was sick. I just found out about his passing today. To his wife, children, friends, fellow musicans , and fans, may you all find peace and comfort at this time. To you Scott, as Jimi Hendrix said: I'll meet you in the next life.

To Sara, Lori, Albert, Jesse and Nick,
What can I say but I am so sorry for you loss, Scott was a great friend and we will all miss him. He certainly was here on earth for a short time, and taken way too early, but I do believe God had a better plan for him, and he is at peace now. We remember many nights watching Scott perform, and it was always a great performance, what a talent, nice to know the boys will rock on. He was a fantastic musician.
Take peace in knowing that he is in good hands and remember memories can never be taken away. Keep him in your heart, as he will do with you all.
Definitely looking forward to seeing you all on July 29.
Love, Trish

My thoughts and prayers go out to all the Schneck family. I lived across the street from Scott in my teen years, and I remember a younger man than the fantastic musician he became. Memories of playing football in the street, sitting on my stoop and talking till the early morning hours, hanging at his house watching his mom Barbara sharing her beer with their dog. Even though I haven't seen Scott in a number of years, I'll always remember, and he will be missed.

I just wanted to tell everyone that I had submitted a couple of photos. I hope you enjoy.

Bro,
I remember playing the first video game pong in our bed room. Boxing with you and using orange wedges for mouth pieces. Going for a jog in the parkway and you did it in flip flops. Cheering for me on the side lines at my 125 lb football games. letting me barrow your black Elder ado on my prom night. The gigs at the Jackson Mt. in Cape May and staying at the Tangiers. Calling you on the phone and telling each other about our kids and all the laughs. Rock on with the Greatest of all J.C. I miss you and Love You.
Your bro

Ever since hearing the news of Scott's passing, my mind has been irretrievably locked in the early '80's era. I was almost 21 years old and as a DJ at WZZO(Westgate Mall days) I had the honor of working tracks of the "I GOT WHEELS" EP into the music mix at Z-95--the jocks at the time were unanimous in our enthusiasm about this "Daddy Licks Band"--and many a ZZO function had them as headliners...I recall the many nights seeing Scott and the guys rock Mickey Kelly's East and being a part of the palpable excitement in the room. There simply was no other band at the time that created such a sensation--we all felt like we were riding a wave that would never end...when I left the station in 1982 and became keyboardist for "Vagabond" for a year, I shared the same stages that Scott and the band played. On nights we weren't playing I'd join the throngs at the various venues the boys would pack--I can't recall being as transfixed by a guitarist as much as I was with this "Scott Hot"--his stage presence was unparalleled; his gritty yet fluid playing as he got lost in his guitar riffs epitomized an era that simply won't be back. You could see live music up to 7 days a week in the Valley--and we all took advantage of it(yup--MONDAY NIGHTS at Mickey Kelly's!)...Gradually through the '80's I had the chance to chat with Scott at the clubs and see his progression of bands after the Licks days and continue to be thoroughly entertained. He was always gracious and bigger than life--he was "the Big Fish"...truly wish I could have seen him play one more time..but can't think of a better guy than my old friend Pete Cline to carry the weight...I know you'll be with us Scott at the Sterling on the 29th...and I wouldn't miss it for the world. My thoughts with your family and let's all celebrate this man's life on July 29.

again my thoughts are with the Schneck family. Sara, I never met you but I feel a sense of closeness with you as I do with Lori. Scott and I go so far back as in our early teens. Scott was our first guitarist in our band Hepplewhite and after made a name as a young riff master in Stonehenge. Sheeze what next....Scott Hot band in the days of the Lighthouse and the parties at the Pistone's Lori and ur sis Lisa. Damn as Scott would invite me up on stage to play bass was a great time I will never forget. Lori, Sara the kids...my love to you all. When your tears stop and the sun shines again and the birds sing it is Scott saying everything is ok and I love you....he see's, and damn he's got a Les Paul from Heaven love

An Artist; One who has something of value to say. The technique with which to say it and once said, it creates an emotional impact.
"I will search for that lost harmony until my last breath is gone" (Weeping Willow Man -S.Schneck, Gypsy Souls 1995: Emotional Records)
Perhaps now, you have found it, my brother. You are not only a great player, but a great musician.
Some of the most memorable moments of my musical journey took place seated behind you as you stood out over the front of the stage respectfully,elegantly,arrogantly coaxing the inimatable licks only you could create and execute.
A solitary voice in a crowd of pretenders, you showed no fear as you exposed yourself to the danger of live performance night after night. The courage of your on stage flights of fancy only rivaled by your courage displayed of late during this most recent battle.
I know you'll be organizing a great band wherever you are and ask only one thing.....save my seat right behind you for when I get there. It will be my honor. Tell brother James Nastasee and Big Al G. we send our love...and tear it up!!
Sara, Lori, Albert, Jesse, Nicholas and Brother Matt,
Hope there is some small comfort in knowing how much he was loved by his friends and respected by his peers. There is only one like hinm anywhere. I know because I've been there.
Big Love, and may God's love shine on him and mercy ease the transition. My prayer for you all is, it doesn't hurt too much for too long. See all of you soon,
Paco

Reading all these wonderful thoughts and memories has sparked a part of my brain that hasn't been sparked in 25 years or more. The mention of 'Oddessey' or the head shop in Emmaus (of all places...). Scott's Les Paul, his concerts in 'The Parkway' , spagetti made with ketcup, yes, I was there for that and other taste morsels! We can't ever forget him or the gift he gave us all......Music and laughter. God bless him.
The last time I saw Scott was in 1995 right after my divorce (those are always fun) I was living here in Texas and I was thinking about moving back home to the Lehigh Valley. I went to see him and the band on a Sat night. After the set, I went up to him and start talking. One thing lead to another and he looked me straight in the eyes and said "Diane, you got out of here, you don't want to move back!" or somehting like that, anyway, I took his advice and stayed in TX. Things are good here and I'm glad I stayed.
Thanks again Scott, and we all know your in a much better place and we'll be seeing you when we see you. Peace brother

To the whole Schneck family:
My thoughts and prayers are with you all!!
I know alot of people remember Scott for his music. I do, too.
He's the best guitar player I've ever met!! Everytime he'd come up with Sara, he'd bring a guitar, and we'd get to sit and play. I'll never forget when they came up to see me after I had my tumor removed. I was so, tired, so weak. But for whatever reason, it was important to me at that time to play with Scott. He was battling with his own cancer at the time, just the same as me. God gave me the strength to play with him because He knew it was important for us both. I think we both bonded that day, both as musicians, and as family.
He's my brother-in-law. I'm going to miss him. But I know he's there at the foot of the throne of God, and there's not a better place to be!!
He's loved and missed, but never fogotten!!
Godbless the whole entire Schneck family.

What a great man!!! I didn't know him prior to my sister Sara. But I have heard a few stories...and bottom line...Scott was a great guy!! I am so glad that God brought Sara and Scott together...He was sooo good to my little sister!!! They were good for each other. They complimented each other. He was a great bro-n-law and uncle. Sara, Kyle thought Uncle Scott was cool!!! We are going to miss him ...We loved him so much. He fit in so well with the family. I love you sis!

For all the times you took a bow after performing, I now bow my head
in sorrow and respect for a local guitarist icon.
From Stonehenge to Daddy Licks has been a long time,
but much too soon for a final exit.
As a fellow musician and fan I thank you for the memories.
Strength to your family to endure
and the hope that your sons continue your legacy.

My sympathy to the Schneck family. SCOTT; I haven't seen you since the 70's when you had that head shop in Emmaus. I was there with Russ! Sat in that room in back of the store that was the inside of a parachute! Far-out for the times! You were ahead of your time then, and are again ahead of your time in leaving! GOD BLESS YOU, and rock wherever you may be!

Ooh Baby it's a wild world. That song brings tears to my eyes, as it did when Scott used to sing it to me while dancing with me on stage during the Joint's Jumpin' era. I already miss him. But I know he's at peace and definetly rockin' and jammin' playing his guitar. You, Scott, will forever be in my heart. Thanks for all the great times we shared. To the family: my deepest sympathies to all of you.

Hello Lehigh Valley, we just returned from the most awesome memorial to Scott. B-Man so great of you to be here. The flowers were gorgeous from all, can't wait to see everyone at the gig, Newy-you'd better be there! The boys and Sara will be there for all to meet. Scott has touched many lives here, we are still in shock. Take comfort in knowing that Scott found peace and joy in his life. He gave his boys the gift of music and they rocked every weekend in his garage. We miss him, Lori

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of Scotts' family.
Scott came into my life in the early 70's, as a young musician in a band called Oddessey, looking for a part time job. Over the years there were many memorable moments and events, personally and musically where our lives crossed paths. Especially, 25 years ago July 23rd. Scott played at our wedding, making it a very special day, we loved him as a musician, but most of all a Friend. When we meet again, and we will, we'll be the couple up front dancing!
Always remember SCOTT HOT ROCKS!
Love, Don and Marie

My heart was sad to hear of Scott's passing. Growing up on 16th Street, I have so many wonderful memories of Scott and his patience in teaching me how to play the guitar. I never really grasped it but for one song, Mr Tambourine Man. Everytime I would hear that song, I'd think of you Scott, and I always will.
My deepest condolences to your family. When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure. Scott, you were and will always be a treasure.

my deepest sympathy to the entire Schneck family. I am saddened and shocked to here of Scott's passing. Scott and I go way back to our teens as we jammed together many times, I on bass and Scott on his Les Paul! Scott Hot Band, Daddy Licks. I haven't seen him in some years but will never forget the good times we had. He touched many of our lives with his music and his humor and will be greatly missed. My love and prayers are with you all.

First, my condolences to the family. I just got the news last night.
Scott was a phenomenal guitar player and a great performer. I enjoyed many a show; whether it was Daddy Licks, Family of Strangers, Big Fish Little Pond, or just a jam, he always had the joint rockin'.
I guess my best memory of Scott was when he pulled me up on stage at DJ Bananas while FOS was playing there one night. He put his hat on my head and coaxed me into singing Rocky Mountain Way with the band. Oddly enough, I was able to fumble my way through the tune and the crowd received it well. A very memorable night, indeed.
We've lost a great talent and a great friend to many. I will be in attendance at The Sterling for the DL reunion benefit on 7/29. There will be a lot of reminiscing and rocking which is probably the way he'd have wanted it.

Dear Scott, So sad to hear you've left us. We've been out of touch for many years but the memories of the 16th st. gang growing up, following the Daddy Licks Band, the trips to Cleveland to see the Browns,will keep a smile on my face everytime I think of you.You made me laugh like so few ever could.Thanks for all the beautiful music.

I have so many thoughts and memories going thru my head. I remember all the gigs in so many places; traveling up North and out West. The sleepness nites - the fun at the beach and endless conversations about "nothing". I remember your wit and never ending creativity of making up your own words to songs. There were plenty of jammin sessions at the warehouse downtown - Buffy and I use to bring ya'll food. I have so many great memories of your wacky sense of humor! All the crazy clubs you played in - the rehearsals - the set ups and tear downs. I know you will find peace and harmony without fear or pain. Heaven will be a rockin place with you there.
Much love - Karen Davies
Sarah - I have never met you but my sympathies to you for your loss. Stay strong and keep the faith.
Lori & boys: My thoughts are with you all.

Scott Hott,
One of the many icons of music to come from the Lehigh Valley. I still think of Scott playing the free concerts in the Parkway when ever I hear the song Gloria.
RIP

As the shock of all of this begins to fade into sorrow, I think now that we are all lucky to have known you at all and to have had the chance to share your music and a couple of laughs along the way. Your family will miss you most of all, but a place in my heart has your initials carved in it too. Good bye, my friend. Love, B-man.
