Ha. I wish we still had:
Chris Cornell- Soundgarden
Layne Staley- Alice In Chains
Kurt Cobain- Nirvana
Scott Weiland- Stone Temple Pilots
Shannon Hoon- Blind Melon
Andrew Wood- Mother Love Bone/Peal Jam/Temple of the Dog
Bradley Nowell- Sublime
Chester Bennington- Linkin Park/STP
etc, eTc, ETC... Alt/Grunge as taken a colossal hit. We were just discussing this topic in another thread. All sorely missed ?
Prince died in 2016 also.

You know, I’m beginning to suspect the OP is not being entirely genuine 
I was in the doctor's office, reading and waiting. I read where Lincoln was killed! Have they caught the scoundrel?
We do all realize that, the longer we live, the shorter our list of living heroes becomes. No sense lamenting the situation, it is what it is.
I wish a new "starcat" would appear. Today's mods wouldn't let him exist long though. Much less tolerant of the "oddballs." "starcat" was a great one for providing a bit of humor. Some of the members even took him seriously ... waaaay toooo seriously. But, that was the element that made "starcat's" treads so much fun. Without "straightmen" he wouldn't have achieved the notoriety he did.

if he was dead, how could you tell?
As my late Father commented on his death bed 'Dying is terribly boring. I really recommend you don't have anything to do with it!'.
Sounds similar to my grandfather's often repeated advice: "Don't get old, you won't like it."
Ok, so he made some mistakes every once in a while...
That video is so bad it's good. It's right up there with The Stones Start Me Up vid. You only have to watch the opening 10 seconds to realise it's unintentional comedy genius.
I think one or two of them may have been a little coked up?.
Just in: Glen Miller’s plane overdue, feared lost in English Channel...
I heard Bowie was bi' (no big deal) but I never heard about the pedo stuff. Hmm.
He did state that he was bi in an interview back in the 70’s, whether it was true, or just marketing remains speculation. He was a bit a curiosity back then. Controversy and showmanship - look at what Alice Cooper was doing back then. But it sold records.
The whole Pedo thing came out after his death. And I suspect that Lori Maddix was just capitalizing on his death by saying she lost her virginity at 15 to him so she could have her 15 minutes of fame. As far as I know there has never proven to be any substance to her claims.
Not defending anyone’s behavior but Bowie was onky around 26 at the time. Anyway, considering he just died let him Rest In Peace.
The sheer shoddiness of this thread is very nerve wracking enjoyable no-less
enjoyable no-less
In Alabama... 15 can marry without consent. I remember being a teen and discussing this with my girl, but my mom wouldn't let me keep her in my bedroom.
