harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,683 Posted July 26, 2007 The kerrazy world of Norwegian rawk is going through traumatic times. Hot on the (winged, stacked) heels of the passing of Madrugada's 'mercurial guitarist' Robert Buras comes the terrible news that Pagan's Mind axemeister Thorstein Aaby has also big-willy soloed his last. Please God, let Turbonegro's Knut Schreiner be spared your vengeful wrath. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A great character who will be sorely missed! What a terrible shame & another death completely out of the blue.

Dead O'Gonner 1 Posted July 27, 2007 hello one and all on this glorious flood ravanged day! This is my first post on DL. I have been a avid watcher over the last 8months (i have to say the tammy saga was very enthralling and i bet larry king is rubbing his hands at snatching the last interview in the face of death itself) News came to light today while on my way to work whilist listening to a popular radio broadcasting station, i believe it coul dbe revelutionary to DL if we can get hold of the thing in question. Im refering to Oscar. Oscar is a cat! He however has the ability to predict death. THis amazing cat has been found in a care home in America. Hours before death opens the gates oscar will tenderly curl up on the victims lap, little does the victim know that darkness is a mere few hours away. http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/...rticle_id=78845 An interesting read and a potential DL secret weapon!!
