msc 18,421 Posted September 18, 2016 South African singer Mandoza dead aged 38 from brain cancer. He was actually on my 2017 long list as he's been covered by the BBC in the past, so I had inklings he might nab a QO. Well, he wont get one in 2017 now, anyhow.

JR976evil 905 Posted September 19, 2016 I've no problem with chatter, you're harshing my DL buzz! If it weren't for Y-Dud, GCR and myself the chatter to obit post ratio would get quite ugly. What I'm saying, so as not to dance on the head of a pin, is the three of us account for prolly 60% of the obits. Seeing as we all joined since late 2014, I don't know how many obits went to the wayside around here. SirC I often report deaths from Italy and France and I can remember at least one time I announced the death of a DDP pick (Yves Bonnefoy, if I remember well). I've made several reports here. I agree with you that most important and numerous reports cam from Willz, with gcreptile holding the second place in death reporting. The deaths you reported, SirC, as long as I remember, were usually minor deaths, or very minor. You only surprised me when you announced the death of Hugh O'Brian because I was expecting Willz to do it. But there is lack of deaths during the last weeks, as you can clearly see.The past days have been extremely quiet, so all the obituary writers jumped on Alexis Arquette's death - while I can't remember her in any movie, and I've watched Pulp Fiction about 5 times.Germany had a death of a former high justice last week, but I didn't care enough to post. Maybe I should have posted Crazy Eddie's death. From Pulp Fiction Was also in the Wedding Singer, one Adam Sandler film I can actually stomach.
