I find this thread to be in poor taste and vote to have it removed!

I AGREE


I repeat myself... The whole thread or just Pako Gerrte's forecast?

Death is real and each second it is a second closer, so my guess is that 2017 will have more farewells of rock stars and growing each year until 2023 and then less and less but the highest will be around 2023

Sorry but that’s a rule of life and life is a bitch or a bastard

thanks voo. my uncle was a huge music fan from a different generation. he loved jazz used to travel to ny among many other places from switzerland to listen in clubs which are all gone all now. he also spent alot of time in Cambrils which he considered his second hometown and where i have a picture of him in his garden. he loved music, travel, good food and drinking. it runs in the family. his son in his spare time also was in a band.

it don't mean a thing
if it aint got that swing

Now we have Deke, Leonard, Butch Trucks and John Wetton in the list of rock musicians and more in the list of actors, actresses, etc.

Not RnR but Robert Osborne from TCM deserves a mention.  Passed March 6th. Master of Classic Movies and a class act.  When I only had basic cable TCM was my commercial free go to channel...loved that guy  RIP!
