Unless I missed someone, Fresno Bob is first on the board with 17 for Leonard Nimoy and 15 for first death. RIP Mr. Spock. Sadly, smoking is not logical.

[Fresno Bob]

my first death since Saddam Hussein!

[Erik]

RIP Sam Simon. FB building a huge lead.

Toto bassist Mike Porcaro dies of ALS at 59. 41 points for me.

Toto bassist Mike Porcaro dies of ALS at 59. 41 points for me.

2/3rds of an incredible set of musical brothers dead way too early. His brother Jeff was an incredible drummer.

[revo]

In the last week, the music world has lost quite a few members, including Porcaro:
- Michael Brown, co-founder of Left Banke
- AJ Pero, drummer for Twisted Sister
- Andy Fraser, bassist for Free
- Daevid Allen, founder of psychedelic bands Soft Machine & Gong
- Jimmy Greenspoon, keyboardist for Three Dog Night
- Bruce Crump, drummer for Molly Hatchet

[Lucky]

Man, I didn't hear about Andy Fraser. I could go on and on about Free and what a hugely underrated band they were. If you have a chance to hear one of their live (bootleg) recordings from Sweden, it is worth the trouble. If not, their comrel live album is very good, too.

Sorry about the other guys, too. LLAP.
