Sir Creep

I've no problem with the Committee giving some people that are nothing more than elderly (de Cuellar) the boot and bringing in new blood, it's in the rules after all. I suppose we can question which ones were sent packing. Given their druthers (and no 50% rule) they may have kept someone they had to boot. Those are relatively tough decisions. What SHOULDNT be a tough decision is coming up with, let's say, 10 solid picks who we all seem to agree (as per drop 40) are destined to leave us. I don't see any of those names. I think there is a bit of 'well we are a website that needs to draw attention to it and need more recognizable names' going on. And that's fine, I get it. That accounts for the Joey Feeks of the world absence. Patrick Harrington was a renowned comic actor for decades. That's a blatant miss. Either they ignored or never ever read our posts. I'm not aware of Delpech's fame over there internationally, perhaps a 'miss' but here we are awaiting an obvious t so I'll defer to the Committee. I could whine about people being included structly for being older but sans any medical condition. Where, pray tell, is someone the likes of Dick Cheney, who's medical history you can't attach here cuz it's too many characters in the reply box? I mean if that's the kind of person they want to list where is he? He's every bit as qualified as Kissnger to be included and certainly moreso many names therein. That's just one bloody example. Anyway I tend to be conservative on calling a 'miss' after the fact (someone we didn't think about ourselves) and more liberal calling 'miss' on the original DL via names we have repeated many times in 2015.

Americans only need read this one. Brits need to YouTube it. He managed the Monkees and Kansas and The Archies. He's in the Rock n Roll HOF. Don Kirshner of 'Don Kirshner's Rock Concert' fame on late nite TV 1970s-1980s maybe. We saw great acts in really bad camera angles and glass flooring and color wheels lol. 5 years ago 1/17.

We already have enough whiny Americans and people dull enough to know who Doug Stanhope is here. ok, very fucking sorry I brought it up, thanks for the fuck off notice, champ Cheer up! He's just our resident curmudgeon. Pissing off new members is a kind of ritual; it's in his contract. To be fair, he didn't try to tip toe his way in to get a feel of the place or owt, no he came in swinging his club hammer...That quote means Dr Z isn't capable of hanging at Stanhopes so it's easier to insult it. I've whined enough (twice?) here but find it miserably off topic to even get a thread as suggested. Feel free to read my rants as posted directly to those who run Stanhope on their FB page. They don't like me---but still have to call me 2015 Champ.SC Btw in this internet world nothing is 'American' any more than this site is 'British'. SMH In fact if the intent was to be British by God it would be a .com.uk site not a .net one. SMH again

Not well done: I thought perhaps incorrectly THIS league had a 'not famous for dying' rule or I'd have put Asif in my team like in DDP. Unhappy SC

I'm still at 119---I had Angelil SC

Wow!! What a a achievement I bow to you. I can confirm Hassan Asif was 25 as according to articles in November and January he was stated as 24 then 25 so let's say Dec 1 or so was his birthday. Anyway you got it right at 25. SC Edit: TMIB heads up you have separate listings for Eddie Edwards and Edwin Edwards but it's the same guy. Guvnuh uv Loozeeann SC

Noreen Corcoran, who starred as the teenager adopted by her uncle (John Forsythe) on the 1950s-’60s sitcom Bachelor Father, has died. She was 72. Corcoran died Friday of cardiopulmonary disease at Valley Presbyterian in Van Nuys, her niece, author Mell Corcoran, told The Hollywood Reporter. The actress’ younger brother, Kevin Corcoran, who appeared in the 1957 film Old Yeller and played Moochie on several Disney TV shows, died in October. Makes me sad :-( SC http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/noreen-corcoran-dead-bachelor-father-856390

Here's another Yes vote from Florida. SC http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20160108/wire/160109709

Ted Marchibroda, who spent 12 years coaching in the NFL, died at age 84 at his home in Virginia. Great offensive mind, great coach. SC https://www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/news/early-lead/wp/2016/01/16/renowned-former-nfl-coach-ted-marchibroda-dies-at-age-84/

Back in November plans were to release it on Valentine's Day. We're talking the same album right? Obviously bumped up a month 'for some reason' SC http://www.deathlist.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=8663&p=242518

So you're telling me if Jerry Maren outlasts Diana Ross (who is playing a concert about 2 hours from me in a couple weeks fwiw) that the cast of the 1939 Wiz will outlive the cast of the 1978 Wiz? That's incredible SC Edit STRIKE THAT I'm brain dead now I see three or four others still kicking too.

Gavin MacLoud is alive??? (looks like I gotta post in Surprised to Find They Were Alive) If so then MacLoud, Harper, Moore, Asner, White, Leachman, Engel. SC

Andy Murray knows a thing or two about early exits. February 2, Phil (as in Puxatawny). SirC

Not with the sob story--she will be the lead story unless the Queen herself dies. Question isnt if but what page the obit will be SC

We lost Ireland's oldest ever at 113 last year. (Insert hackneyed Irish blessing) SC

To bad she didn't die last week, she coulda got a Lifetime Achievement Grammy award; now she's gotta hope for the best. Too soon? SC https://www.facebook.com/TheGRAMMYs/posts/10153402546830748:0

Guitar virtuoso Pete Huttlinger, who country star Vince Gill once described as wickedly gifted, died at Vanderbilt University Medical Center Friday after suffering a stroke on Monday. He was 54.

Marshall Field - 110 years. I noticed that there was a Jules Barbier (1901) and Stanley Biber (2006). Any chance this day belongs to Justin Bieber? SC

No! It had better not. What next, a late December article 'People we lost in (insert year)' oh look there's his/her name!!! Gimmee my points! SC

Grizzly Adams is way more famous than some Canadian tart's manager. That may be so, but in Deathlist terms, some Canadian tart's manager was way more on the radar and talked about than Grizzly Adams. Precisely. We are talking the accusation that it's a DL 'miss'.

I hope he lives a long life but I also hope that his voice damage is permanent. SC

Here you go, post whore central! Streetch begins his sentence SC http://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/celebrity/saved-bell-star-dustin-diamond-reports-jail-2014-stabbing-n497841

I'll ignore Y-Dub's post if it'll help SC

I'm glad he was able to keep it quiet if that's what he wanted. A fuck you to the corpse chasing media and indirectly to wankers like us. I reckon there's a few dozen would get similar coverage if they died unexpectedly like Bowie: Prince Mick Jagger Jimmy Page Brian May Paul McCartney John Lydon Ringo Starr Bob Geldolf Bono Tina Turner Bob Dylan Bruce Springsteen Surviving Bee Gees Madonna Billy Joel Lars Ulrich Stevie Wonder Lionel Richie Leonard Cohen Bruce Dickinson Elton John Any member of Pink Floyd Roger Taylor (or any member of The Who) Cliff Richard Any member of Abba what about the two greatest artists of all time Roger Waters and David Gilmore of pink Floyd.Any one member of U2. Bono, edge and er...... Alice Cooper, Janet Jackson, Dolly Parton, Rod Stewart, Aretha Franklin, Steven Tyler, Eric Clapton, Grace Jones, Cher, Cyndi Lauper, George Michael, Morrissey...to name few Oh come on, Dolly Parton was never in U2. sure she was, she used to be bono's brother I almost blew milk out me nose. Cyndi Lauper?!? I promise no one will give two fucking shits when Cyndi Lauper dies. Jesus....to think you listed her in the same breath as Aretha Franklin! The nerve! And Grace Jones....it's all I can do to remember she once had an album in my collection? Are you nuts? She's no fucking national treasure or music/fashion trailblazer that will cause ANYONE to stop and remember where they were when they heard the awful news about Grace goddamn Jones. Throw Janet Jackson or any Jackson in that boat too--the important one has already croaked. Steven Tyler as well. In fact your whole list save Stewart/Franklin. Everyone in the music industry didn't rise to Bowie status. Some of you people's suggestions kill me. Like you don't know or realize the difference. I hope your posts were alcohol-driven for your own embarrassment. SC
