This doesn’t need to turn into a dumping ground for random celebs.

Sly Stone to quit dancing to the music

I think there’s a chance that my team might be leading right now in the DDP with Draper joker and Beckenbauer and I wasn’t even trying lmao

Glynis and Draper didn’t make it to their birthday this year yet they’re listed as the year they would’ve turned have they lived

The topic of seeing which members of music groups are still alive and which bands are completely dead has been discussed a lot on the forums, but as far as I can tell, there was never a thread for this topic. So I made a topic on this discussion. Obviously it isn’t as clear as film casts, as bands often have many lineup changes within their career, so it might be better at this point to look at different lineups. For example, all four Ramones who appeared on their debut (and most acclaimed album) is dead, but Marky Ramone, who replaces Tommy in their later albums, is still alive. That said, some classic lineups can be safely considered dead, like the previously mentioned Ramones, Jimi Hendrix Experience, and Motörhead. There are also groups who are almost all dead, like The Bee Gees, Cream, and Emerson, Lake and Palmer. So, what bands/band lineups can we safely consider to be deceased? I think it’d be interesting to discuss...

Won’t let me win but I think Jeffrey Foskett takes me to third

Nah it was a hit and a miss. They used to report misses of the list publicly but not anymore

The ignorance of this forum is really showing today huh?

After that Draper detour since it was clear he was on his way out it’s back to status quo with Carter

BBC obit

Updated to include new names

Quick timing for 6 people

I mean I certainly wouldn’t wish Draper to be in the state he has been for almost the past 4 years being as ill as he is but yeah he seems to be a massive scumbag

Pretty sure it happened at least three times. Deng Xiaoping, Lou Rawls, and Etta James were the first hits and all were on top of the list when they died

That was definitely a thing in middle school (circa 2013/2014 for me) and frankly the less I remember it the better

Alt obits actually doesn’t close till midway through the month, where stuff like youngest hit of the year gets awarded, so a bit early to officially congratulate him imo

They all have now in 2024. Nice little trio there

Tbf from what I can gather he was extremely infamous back in the 90s from Lobbygate so while on paper may seem FFBI he’s really not at all

Presume they mean Francis?

Pretty sure Grim figured out how to hide them this time, but the admins still know

Tbh, I don’t really care about any potential uniques stolen (I only really have one potential and it’s a name I brought on because I felt like it), so here’s a more casual Day In The Death entry: Derek Draper (joker) John Ashton Brian Barczyk Franz Beckenbauer Theo Burrell Rob Burrow James Carter Cathcart Jimmy Carter Noam Chomsky Joe Doering Shannen Doherty Roberta Flack Toni Hilland Johnnie Irwin Toby Keith Steve Lieberman Steve McMichael Patrick Murray Esther Rantzen Michael Tilson Thomas

Look at the date of the article. It’s 100% fake

I actually made it very clear in the thread subtitle that this wasn’t the Beverly Hills Cop actor but the Psychedelic Furs guitarist so not sure why you noted it down as such

I know I said I was retiring from dead pooling but I decided to send in an entry anyways cause why not. Definitely nowhere as well researched as my past teams but I couldn’t really resist. Oh and the counterculture theme is back as per usual
