msc 18,479 Posted February 17, 2019 It's been a while since there was a stupidly long list of aging folk. So here is an extended version of that music one, up to 1958, as musicians keep dying in their 60s of late. All genres, put here after Admin Advice. Every single name will QO as and when, and I expect a good... 50% at least to be deadpool fodder within the next 5 years or so.

His wife's column about that was out today. Greg’s first round of his new chemotherapy treatment went spectacularly badly. Ironically, we spent the majority of the time he sat having the infusion talking about how well it was going. During the last few minutes, he started to wince with pain and within seconds he was howling and convulsing with eyes rolling back like he had downed multiple bottles of whisky. There was projectile vomiting and a mass of nurses running to his help. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/17442485.stacey-heale-column-gregs-chemo-misery/ It doesn't sound good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indeed - I've seen Pink Floyd credited with inspiring Radiohead (definitely true) but surely they had Talk Talk albums in their uni bedrooms as they crowded together and decided to form a band.

drol 11,957 Posted February 25, 2019 Still nothing. Ok, Hollis is reclusive, but he is also an iconic face of the 80s (Talk Talk were one of my favourite bands back then). Hard to understand if it is real or not now, but surely I wouldn't be shocked if it takes weeks to be confirmed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
