Sir Creep 7,070 Posted March 13, 2016 Billy Zoom founding guitarist of X is currently receiving treatment for bladder cancer. Anyone interested in donating to help with his medical fees can do so here http://www.gofundme.com/yx66a4 Saw them twice in the 80s. This sux. Get well mate SC I can't find any details on the prognosis, but I'm assuming since they're only wishing to raise about $50,000 that the prognosis is promising. Don't have a link but the official X Facebook page says he's back on stage performing and gives a handful of upcoming dates. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know it's a slow obit day (two days really) what with the Reaper enjoying some corned beef & cabbage, but I'm agreeing with the tumbleweed sentiment. It'll pickup tomorrow, I promise. Fringes of Fame maybe, being Questlove's dad? While we are on the topic of The Roots -- my daughter LOVED Yo Gabba Gabba, and The Roots were on one of the shows playing a song (circa 2010). They had a token white dude who played bass. Now (circa 2015) they're big-time they boot che' whitey from the band? Cuz he sure as shit ain't with them any more. Hey -- just putting it out there. lol SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whitehouse 872 Posted March 19, 2016 Dutch DJ Howard Kaii dies in a traffic accident in Thailand. He crashed with a motorbike without wearing a helmet. He died at the scene. Never heard of the geezer, and I'm Dutch by the way, but apparently he was spinning with the likes of Paul van Dyk, Pete Tong and Judge Jules of Ministry of Sound. So that's counts. http://www.msn.com/nl-nl/entertainment/nieuws/nederlandse-dj-omgekomen-in-thailand/ar-BBqEdTG?ocid=spartandhp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,978 Posted March 19, 2016 Prince writes his memoirs: http://www.theguardian.com/music/2016/mar/19/prince-memoir-2017-release-the-beautiful-ones In my opinion, he could die any day of some kind of freaky, embarrassing accident. Though in this case, he was apparently made an offer he couldn't refuse. He announced it at some kind of event in New York City. Also in attendance, Harry Belafonte.
