It's not right, and I withdraw the entry.

I think Toad was playing Trumps?

xoxoxoBruce · 01-03-2016, 10:05 PM

Or playing ISIS.

I've got my WMP playlist blaring in my ears to drown out my own misery, so mine will be musicians!

1. Ozzy is back on drugs/booze last I heard.
2. HOW did Keith Richards outlive Lemmy???
3. Ditto Steven Tyler
4. Ditto Mick Jagger
5. John Mellencamp. Last I knew he was tangled up with Dennis Quaid's ex, and Dennis STILL looks rode hard and put away wet after that debacle.
6. Alice Cooper is turning 68 next month AND I HAD BETTER BE WRONG INCLUDING HIM. One of the few rock-n-roll showmen we have left.
7. Geoff Tate from Queensryche. He apparently has Seattle-itis (aka Rain Rot) of the brain and not only became a wine snob in time for the first time I got to see them, he went nuts in Brazil somewhere on the 30th anniversary tour and was fired for pulling a weapon on the rest of the band.
8. Lou Gramm from Foreigner. The brain tumor may have been benign, but I'd bet his stroke risk is astronomical.
9. Speaking of astronomical, Dr. Brian May, formerly the guitarist for Queen and currently one of the most respected astrophysicists we have. That gorgeous stereoptic image of Pluto from last year? He did the processing.
10. Can I just include ALL of the 1985 Motley Crue lineup? Or is Nikki dq'd for having been dead already?
10b. If the Crue inclusive is not viable, I'm going with Nick Rhodes from Duran Duran. I looked up all 5 of the "classic" lineup, and Rhodes looks like he got hit by a bus.

Dangit, and there's no room for Jimmi Page. Personally, I still want to see that tyrannical little former (?) heroin junkie dipped in brown gravy and tossed into a room full of rabid wolverines high on crack!

Hey, Page--FIRST, you do NOT sell the riff from "Kashmir". SECOND, you do NOT sell it to Puff Daddy. THIRD, you do not sell it to Puff Daddy for the soundtrack to that abomination of a Godzilla movie with the Jay Leno Lizard!!! (Technically, that design is referred to in Godzilla canon as Zilla, but many fans call him GINO--Godzilla In Name Only.)

infinite monkey · 01-04-2016, 12:39 PM

I think I won last year, so I'll come out of semi-hiding to play again this year. I need to go read the Enquirer and see who's on death's door.

I'll get back to you.

Snakeadelic · 01-11-2016, 10:12 AM

I had Bowie... in 2012. I heard things. I forgot though and didn't pick him since. I won that year with Whitney. Morbidity was on my mind in 2011

footfootfoot · 01-19-2016, 09:42 AM

Here's my list for 2016:

1-10. Musicians and entertainers between the ages of 65 and 70.

orthodoc · 01-19-2016, 10:18 PM

Have to check out last year's list and do something different. The current trend can't hold (surely); some other category than beloved musicians and entertainers has to start dying off.

glatt · 01-20-2016, 09:19 AM

I haven't participated in a few years

1. Chuck Berry
2. Jerry Lee Lewis
3. Grace Slick
4. Smokey Robinson
5. David Crosby
6. Neil Diamond
7. Roger Waters
8. Boz Scaggs
9. Bob Seger
10. Lionel Richie

I just picked names off a list of old musicians
