    Close To The End

    The Italians absolutely loved prog rock in the seventies, and produced a handful of great acts of their own like PFM and Area. You are right. King Crimson is a beloved group in Italy and they were on an Italian tour last autumn.

    The Generation Game

    MTM was my 10th hit, and four of them are Baby Boomers. Not bad, though Craig Spector will probably block my team for a long time.

    Stefan Karl Stefansson

    Make it to 2018, Robbie. Just another year od stupid songs and horrible makeups, then you can die everyday you want.

    And Glen Campbell. He could not speak some months ago, most people did not even expect to see him alive in 2017.

    Thoughts On The 2017 List

    I think he's a goner. He's just too old to tolerate a severe illness like that and his wife died some months ago, when he was described as "ailing" and "gravely ill". A miracle if he sees 2018.

    Extraordinary one-man work by Weebl guaranteed his place in the Drop 40. I've always considered him a dead cert from the first post of Weebl about him and I have to thak Weebl for Wetton's inclusion in my DDP team.

    George Bush Senior

    Ok. I give him two weeks.
  12. October 28th? It says January 28th on the page I'm reading. Whoops

    Queen Elizabeth II

    Punctual as Japanese-Swiss trains (which are really punctual).
  14. Italian aviator Cesare Di Bert's page was edited to say he died on January the 28th. Did not find any source though, but there's no reason to think it's false. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cesare_Di_Bert

    Unless the new mod, whoever they are, would make a stop to it. Are you trying to suggest you will become a mod?

    General Non School Massacre Thread

    Shooting in Quebec. Great confusion, with leftist journalists and idiot PM Justin Trudeau blaming neonazis and concrete sources reporting attackers were Syrian refugees shouting Allah Akbar. Seems almost certain that one of the attackers has Moroccan origins. But I'll wait to hear more reliable reports. http://edition.cnn.com/2017/01/29/americas/quebec-mosque-shooting/index.html

    Gandhi was killed this day 69 years ago.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    Yeah. Also, I heard it's "not best advised" to use hydrogen in an airship... Oh, the Hindenburg tragedy. Good times.

    Queen Elizabeth II

    If it continues this way, this topic is going to beat Richard O'Sullivan for number of posts. Sure the Queen will make it.

    Summer Olympic Deaths/Dead Medallists

    Good work. I think his family didn't know he was dead in the moment you already posted it here.

    Oh, and the last house show he took part to was on December the 5th. It's been a long time since then.

    Kane has missed the Royal Rumble after being a costant feature since 1996 (with few exceptions, always motivated) and does not appear on screen since December... How did he get the nasty cold?
