I thought he died a long time ago.  Guess that takes another one off the death list for 2017.  Herman Wouk still going at 102!

no I think you were thinking of Walter Matthau 

 

someone had actually commented on how 2017 had become a serial killer, I had to disagree because most serial killers had a specific target, and 2016 had a specific target and it mostly aimed at singers or musicians

 

of course I'm probably wrong about that

wow

Dammitall... RIP.

2 hanging suicides 2 months (and 2 days) apart... hope this isn't the start of some tragic trend.  If these musicians are getting burnt out or need some rehab, they should really take a break for themselves and **** the tours. Reading Bennington leaves behind 6 kids (based on a pic looks like aged 5-18 or so) that's brutal

damn today also would have been Chris Cornell's 53rd b-day and Bennington was close with him

so sad.  RIP Bennington and Cornell.   Mental illness is such a messed up thing.

Loved Baa Baa Black Sheep. Mostly because I love the Corsair airplane. And Robert Conrad.

Huge Linkin Park fan. Really sucks about Chester. Thrill of a life to see them live a couple of times. .

When life leaves us blind...love keeps us kind.

Dreasful life but fantastic lyrics. Being a huge fan, im well aware what the meaning behind most their songs are... Its sad.. Drugs.. Suicide... Depression but also not giving up... Unfortunately tho.. Chester did give up. Mental disorders are a very real thing

weren't they the ones having the farewell tour?

Streetheart performed at the first concert I ever went to. They and Trooper were the only bands that performed in places like Brandon when I was a teenager. RIP 

well this is a shame

oh that sucks, I hope the first episode of the DuckTales reboot will be dedicated to her memory (she was Magica DeSpell) and she also made a brief live action cameo in that other live action Rocky and Bullwinkle movie Boris and Natasha that revolved around the show's antagonists. Well actually she had alot of voice work, the last one was that Rocky and Bullwinkle short that was shown before that Mr Peabody and Sherman film
