Slackhurst Broadcasting 374 Posted February 23, 2022 Not musicians, but Albert Goldman died on a plane in mid-Atlantic flight. And Carrie Fisher collapsed in flight, though she hung on for a few days in intensive care. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,477 Posted June 1, 2022 If Elton, Ozzy or Iggy see 80, I'll shake their hand in disbelief. By shake their hand, read: have a whisky in celebration* and go "nice one" in the comfort of my own living room with them none the wiser. *I'd have the whisky anyway, tbh. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

David Crosby was freebasing for years, arguably a worse druggie than any of those three - especially that simpering amateur from Pinner.

harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted June 20, 2023 His current wig is something to behold, possibly even more ridiculous than Frankie Howerd’s in his pomp. Other than that he looks well in a bbc interview about his upcoming Glasto headline appearance. His autobiography definitely made me warm to him, if not his music, the appeal of which continues to pass me by. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You would think that a wealthy singer like Elton could afford to use Autotune for concerts. He sounded offkey on several songs like Frank Sinatra before his final retirement. His guests, apart from the Kiki Dee stand-in, were awful. Thankfully, we were not subjected to a Hey Jude duet with Macca who, mercifully, remained in his seat.

Not sure you want to listen to autotune When you pay for a concert, it doesn’t have anything to do with wealthiness 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to listen to a plain Elton John, then listen to his albums. The goal of a concert is also to see someone making mistakes. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously a fan of Les Dawson's piano playing! The goal of a concert should be to entertain the fans who have paid high prices to see it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
