Doesn't start until the 10th as I understand it, so I think your sub comes into play.

 

Bad luck.

Oh shit, you're right. Guess I was having a little Glen Campbell moment of my own there.

If the game didn't start until the 10th and Campbell died on the 8th, why is he a hit? :huh:

Here's my team updated. Newest death is Larry Cunningham in Soul and Blues.

*no one really cares anyhow since someone has won already but loved this pool, thought I would simply keep it updated for me.

Having reviewed the thread Captain Chorizo has won the Rock Category, but all others are up for grabs. I might be the only person to have a hit in the Rap/Hip Hop section, but I have no idea who two of the Captain's entries are, ha!

 

In order to win the soul/blues section, it's looking like a crap shoot between Fixed Business (Chaka, Chaka...) and myself (Belafonte).

Doris Day takes me to two hits in the pop category. Waiting on recently widowed Pat Boone there and Belafonte in the Soul/Blues category.

Kenny Rogers is my first hit in the Country category.

 

Yeah, I still care about this game!

Not that it matters as the Rock category was won some time ago, but I had Lee Kerslake there.

 

After all this time my global score is 7/15 dead.

That's my Rock category extinguished - all three are dead after Gary Rossington's death.

 

Overall, 9/15 dead.

That's my Blues/Soul category extinguished with Harry Belafonte's death and, in the absence of any claims, I claim the title for that category. Yippee!

 

Overall, 10/15 dead.
