Oh well, I had hom on my list for next year. Even though I submitted my DDP yesterday, I can't remember who I put as my first sub

Would need to see how he is when he accepts his award.

Oh well, with Pele and Don West dying and unless something drastic happens in the day or so, I stand to win $180

If Yahoo news counts, then this qualifies

Former kickboxer and Big Brother contestant, Andrew Tate currently being detained in Romania for rape and human trafficking charges.

While we still have time to submit ideas for next year. Peter Marshall the original host of Hollywood Squares is still alive at the age of 96

If not included in 2023, then Gaston Glock should be in there. He's had a few health problems over the years Frank Gehry is getting up in years. he'll be 94 next year.

Isn't he a tribute act?

Pele was one I always considered to be immortal. The other being Jerry Lee Lewis. I remember for half our P.E. lessons for football training, our teacher would wheel the TV and video player out, and we'd have to watch some of Brazil's world cup matches, paying special attention to Pele. On one hand, unless something drastic happens, I win our local Deadpool. On the other, it's painful to be reminded of someone dying from cancer so soon after my mother-in-law went through the same just over a month ago. Anyway, R. I. P. Pele

If his family would step out of the room for 5 minutes, he'll be able to just go quietly.

I'm surprised he's lasted as long as he has

Freddie Roulette passed away on Christmas eve at the age of 83.

It's not so bad today, yesterday was worse with air temps of -10°F and wind chill of -35°F

They may have been posted within a minute or two of each other

Got to work the debut performance of Wandering Eye (Ween tribute band).it got really busy so the only photo I was able to take was during the soundcheck. I did however get Alan Sparhawk of Low to autograph a CD for me.

Worked for The Jayhawks and Golden Smog last night. Only got a chance to take one photo during rhe soundcheck. Highlight of the evening was being presented with my stage pass.

Charlie Gracie has sadly passed away at the age of 86

Alan Sparhawk has a new band that's having their debut gig on Friday. It's a Ween tribute band called Wandering Eye which he set up with members from Trampled by Turtles, Glitterati and ELnO (ELO tribute band).

Same here. I was also surprised that Jimmy Cricket is older than my dad

Speak to yourself, I always thought he was a bit of a twat.

He's still going to die from cancer, but he is recovering from the infection he had a week or so ago.

Last time I saw Matt Goss was at Paramount City in London 1990 or 91 (I think it changed its name to The Windmill or something similar). Anyway, he was dressed in white denim mouthing off with the ol' "doncha know who I am" shit to anyone who could hear him. I turned and "accidentally" knocked over a pint of Guinness most of which went over his white jeans.

Leonard G. Phillips (The Dickies) and Charlie Harper (UK Subs) have had similar heart issues recently

I haven't seen them in 30 years. Last time was a double headliner with Anti Nowhere League
