Rip Thread

Oooft, bet it’s hot where he is….

 

Poor guy. He died without ever knowing who killed his wife

 

Did he die in jail for violent robbery in Vegas? Oh no. Somehow despite being sentenced to 33 years he got out after just 9. I bet no one is too sorry that this guy bought the farm

 

Divorced ex-wife, surely?

 

Cheers Pete. The quip is much funnier now you’ve pointed that out.

 

His funeral procession will be led by a white Bronco

 

"Deadly" Derek Underwood, Kent & England spin bowler, RIP.

RIP Dickey

 

One of my all time fave rave go to YouTube vids especially the second half.

 

Shouldn't speak ill of the dead, but "Greatest Guitar Solo of All Time" seems a bit ambitious, as I dip sampled the clip half a dozen times and each time it just appeared to be pretty standard pub rock-esque pentatonic blues widdling.

 

Ha! I must admit I did think the same when I listened to it but such is always the case when plumping for the top selection on a search when in a haste.

Having said that you must go to some decent pubs....

The second link to the live concert is much better.

 

Too put it in context it is from 1971. I think it's OK but greatest of all time - that is a stretch even back then. Hendrix, Beck...

 

RIP Dickie

 

Hope you’re have a good time away and not spending too much of it trawling the obituaries!

 

We need more dead politicians in this thread, why don’t those fuckers ever die?

 

Because this thread is “Rest in Peace” not “Enjoy thy retribution of eternal damnation” Maybe we could start another thread, “Good riddance spunktrumpet”
Just an idea
Not exclusively for politicians btw

 

Harsh, but fair
