Celebrity death Pool Time

[Mudcat]

RIP Michael Burgess, who starred in over 1000 performances of Les Miserables in Toronto and was my first Jean Valjean.

Cancer.

Lamar Odom

 

[Mudcat]

Made me look.

Here's a headline:


Lamar Odom fights for his life: NBA star ex-husband of Khloe Kardashian is in a coma after passing out at Vegas brothel 'where he took TEN herbal Viagra on drunken four-day bender'


Dignity. Sometimes there just isn't any.

 

[Blitty]

Oops. Jumped the gun. He's still ticking.

[Saulty]

He must had an erection lasting longer than 4 hrs and he didn't call his doctor. Rookie mistake!

 

[CASPERWAIT$]

Cocaine, track marks, herbal Viagra and whores.

If those aren't a recipe for certain death, I'm not sure what is.

Ken Taylor died.

Canadians of a certain age will remember him for his brave actions in Iran when it happened.

For others, the headline I just saw: Man Who Inspired 'Argo' Dead. ---> it made me do a facepalm but it's probably the most sensible way to describe him in today's world.

RIP

David Canary. He played Adam chandler and Stewart Chandler on All my Children seemingly forever.

I guess he was on Gunsmoke and Bonanza too.

Scott Weiland, former lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots, died in his sleep on a tour bus at the age of 48.

That's about all I am seeing in terms of reporting.

A 48 year-old dying in his sleep.

Scott Weiland was probably not a huge underdog in this thread.

I liked that song Fall To Pieces by Velvet Revolver. Very solid jam.

 

[FairWarning]

He had to be a high draft pick in death pools.

Here is some of his live work this year:

Thought Weiland had died a long time ago. He beat the grunge odds.

RIP

I offered to take Matty to see him at the Hard Rock Cafe on Tuesday. Apparently he was doing solo work.

I know Matty likes Purple but I think Core was a better album.

 

[fiveteamer]

Tiny Music was also good. That's all you get, two maybe three really great albums before a band runs out of ideas. I think Nirvana had one good album left.

 

[Mudcat]

People dying of old age. That's used to be a fairly common thing to hear that you never hear any more.

What did so-and-so die of?

She died of old age.

It used to be a completely acceptable answer.
