Metal Sludge Gossip Board

And... we're off.

$tEvil

This will unfortunately be the year when someone from Sabbath dies. Most likely Ozzy or Bill.

Probably also some actor or politician that most people think died ten years ago.

And I wouldn't feel too safe being Putin or Assad now.

JIMMY CAR---- wtf wait a minute

David Allan Coe - his camp has been quiet for far too long, not a good sign...
Bill Kreutzman - although younger than Phil Lesh (who just died), he partied a lot harder
that cracksmoker-looking dude from Tesla
Ozzy
Perry Ferrel
Al Jourgensen

Clint Eastwood

Aka. "some actor or politician that most people think died ten years ago."

If you asked a week ago I would have Mikkey Dee on the list but apparently he is now home and recovering from sepsis after three weeks (!!) in hospital and multiple surgeries.

Both.

Frankie Valli--Heck he looks like Weekend at Bernies already!

Ozzy

Dick Van Dyke

Mel Brooks-Who knew he was still here?

Yoko Ono--Hey we need a break!

Keith Richards---haahha Just kidding, he will never die

Pat Boone

If you'd written Jimmy Carr I'd have been happy. Probably most on this board don't know who he is, but he's a reasonably famous "comedian" in Britain - quote marks because I generally find him tediously unfunny. He's almost equally famous for tax-dodging then getting caught.

A couple of my names have already gone (Clint and Mel) so I'll add:
David Attenborough
Christopher Plummer
Bill Clinton
wildcard - Steve Jones (Sex Pistols)

Jon Bon Jovi
Tito Santana
one Pet Shop Boy

Hopefully Jesse Ventura can make another 5 years
Been waiting ..he has awesome tv job next few years...4xs a year

which pet shop boy?

^ either one will destroy my heart but bring joy memories for all greet music and shows I’ve been able to attend.

Pet Shop Boys time is definitely on The Last Ride#whathaveidonetodeservethis?#

Pete Davidson

And I have a bad feeling about the members of Poison…I don’t think we’re ever going to get that reunion tour.

Let it be Bert Miracles, that guy's a dick. Let Poison replace him with Ripper Owens and lets get some touring going THIS year!

Ripper? Not sure if you're joking but that hack is out of his league if he's not singing covers in a bar.

Totally joking, but a hack? He could tone it down ten notches and pull off with flying colours. Yngwie/Priest/Iced Earth don't hire no bar-band dude unless he delivers the goods.

That Jimmy Carr joke about Pete Davidson's Dad (who was a firefighter who died on 9/11) was the greatest roast joke of all time. And I'm not a huge roast humor guy

Whilst Davidson was sat listening on the panel, Carr joked: "I'm appalled that people would come here and make jokes about the sacrifice Pete's heroic father made on 9/11.

"This is not the roast of Pete Davidson's father."

"That was in 2001."

I don't know much about the rest of his work, but that joke was great. (He had Pete's permission to say it.)

Britney spears

Donny and Marie's brother Wayne of the Osmonds at 73. Looks like he's the first notable passing of '25:

Val Kilmer(and for the record I hope I'm wrong).

Of course he could pull off the Poison songs, he does have the vocal range even for Priest and Yngwie.
I still think he is a hack because he doesn't know what to do with his voice or on stage.
He has improved a bit, but in Priest he sounded and acted like a bar band guy trying to be Halford. Extremely uncool.
Todd LaTorre is another replacement frontman who seems to think he is in front of his bedroom mirror and not on stage in front of an audience.

Christopher Plummer beat you to it. He died almost four years ago.

Donald Trump and Keith Richards.

Two people who everyone convinces themselves will never die, as though they’re not actual human beings of advanced age with lifelong piss-poor health habits.

It’ll happen eventually, everyone will be shocked, and I’ll be like, “Really?”
