Ohh, man. I literally have You Better Be Lightning sitting on my nightstand. I’ve never been able to make it through that book without weeping in both the best and worst ways.
-
@Aria You’d Better Be Lightning was my lifeline through hospice. I’m gutted. But the obituary their wife wrote was absolutely beautiful, and they went out on their own terms.
I fell in love with them when I read a copy of Lord of the Butterflies when it first released. Then I backtracked to Pole Dancing to Gospel Hymns and was hooked.
They just describe MY experience of the human experience so much more eloquently than I would ever be able. The entire world lost the gift of a wonderful translator, and this one’s going to linger with me for a while.
-
@Aria David Kaff AKA Viv Savage, keyboardist for Spinal Tap. That one stung. Rest well, king.
-
@Jenn Damn that hits hard…Fuck my life.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner. He was 54 and unconfirmed reports saying accidental drowning while he was in Costa Rica on vacation

My local station is putting on a tribute that started at around 4PM and is running until midnight EST that’s all just Ozzy, Sabbath, and stories and interviews from fellow musicians, fans, etc.

Wow, it just won’t stop. Hulk Hogan

Ozzy and Hulk Hogan passing each other on the way to heaven and hell surprised where each one of them is headed

@Pavel That one makes me very sad, although it’s been in the cards for a while.

To invert the trope that is this thread.
Ded Bob died four years ago.
But Ded Bob is back!
(The new Ded Bob isn’t as good as the old Ded Bob, but he hasn’t had thirty years of practice.)

@Gashlycrumb
Aww man I LOVED the Dead Bob show (there’s a pretty big Ren Faire near me and it was always a stop once a year). I’m glad it lives on, I suspect the new guy will get into a groove with it. -
@Third-Eye I just went to ours. I missed most of the show but I thought I might burst into tears or something, 'cause Ded Bob at his old stage. Since Johnny Fox and then the fire-eater whose name slips my mind and then Ded Bob died, there are a lot fewer shows I care about.
How do we get the youth to take up sword-swallowing?

Goodnight, queen. Thanks for all the laughs.
