So, we've lost Lou, and now Bowie...is this man going to be next?
How sad will you be when the last of this holy trinity is gone?
Is it going to be him, or Jagger?
And when will Paul Mccartney finally fucking die?
We killed Lemmy with meme magic, but we couldn't save Bowie. We should have listened to Sheev.
>>61677461
i'd choose losing iggy over eno
Santana will be next.
Future seer here. Here's some notable people who will die in 2016 (no particular order):
>Tim Macuga
>Brian Wilson
>Brian Eno
>Vangelis
>Nick Mason
>Jon Anderson
Screencap this.
Im actually listening to the stooges rn, bc im almost certain he's gonna croak next. Also cause I love the stooges.
If not Iggy, then fucking keith richards like come the fuck on how the fuck is he still alive.
>>61678066
Brian Eno's got another decade left at least
Iggy is awesome, but what has he done interesting lately? His art relies on testosterone, which is fine, but doesn't really sustain him into his 60's and 70's. I'll be sad when he dies, but I'm still looking for great things ahead from dudes like Waits, Eno, and Walker.
>>61678198
And Costello, Cave, and Newman, for that matter.
>>61678198
The only thing I know Iggy's doing is a radio show on BBC 6Music.
It's gonna be David Byrne
Leonard Cohen. Any day. :(
>>61677461
Satan is putting together one hell of a band
Bowie fronting, Bolan on guitar, Lemy on bass, Moon on drums, Klaus Nomi and Freddie Mercury back up vocals.
Think Keith will be needed for rhythm
>>61678391
TAKE THAT BACK!
>>61678198
>not realizing that if what you say is true, TRT could take Iggy's art to the moon

Also, fuck, I forgot about Waits. He's been so ubiquitous throughout my life that the thought of him dying honestly never crossed my mind...FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU....

This woman has become so frightening to look at. I remember in the book 'Fight Club', when describing the girl at the support group who was dying of cancer and just wanted to get fucked one more time, the narrator said,"Chloe was the way Joni Mitchell's skeleton would look if you made it smile and walk around a party being extra special and nice to everyone."

>>61679969
Same. She doesn't deserve this.

Hey there fellow Waits fan. Just wanted to pass something on to you, which I had made a thread about last week. I've been listening to Waits for about15 years now, and recently, I have come to the conclusion that I think 'Real Gone' may just be his finest album. But the thing is, it is only so great when you actually listen to it as an album. Piecemeal, the songs don't hold up in the way some of his other albums do, albums universally considered to be his greatest, in that you can take 3,4 or 5 cuts off of those records and those songs hold up any time, any place as really great songs. Real Gone doesn't have that.
However, when you listen to 'Real Gone' from beginning to end, there's is a real experience there. It has a tremendous flow to it. These songs, they only really deliver their greatest potential impact when they have momentum behind them. And that energy comes from all of the songs around them. They rise and fall. Listening to them separately, I think they can kind of fall flat.
Think of it like this; think of a really great movie, one with an engaging story and excellent characters. Imagine there is a build up of tension in the film, and then there is a scene where some of that tension is resolved, like in a fist fight, or even an argument, or someone standing up for himself. If you were to view that scene without the context, it just wouldn't have the same effect.
It is a concern of mine that this newest generation of music lovers, and generations to come, will be so indoctrinated with listening to individual songs, that they won't be able to appreciate the beauty of a well composed record. It also makes me worry that album composition, too, will begin to evanesce into rarity or even novelty. That's one of the things I love about Tool. They really champion this cause by not allowing there music to be sold as a digital download.
TL;DR- Hey Waits fan, if you haven't really listened to 'Real Gone' all the way through, try it.
>>61677977

That mary jane has been treating him well

>>61677461
>Iggy Pop's not dead. He toured last year!
>>61679723
>>61679888
He's still pretty good live for a 80 year guy. Can still play and hasn't lost his voice. The one major concession to his age is that he plays much shorter shows now, typically an hour and thirty minutes while he would have done three hours a night in 1975.
>>61680412
I'm not him but Real Gone is my favorite album of all time
>>61680540
What do you think of my analysis of it? I know tracks like 'Hoist that Rag' and 'The Day After Tomorrow' stand up really well on their own, but don't you feel that the album really works so much better as a whole. I mean, in the most blatant and rudimentary way, look at 'Make it Rain', which was released as a single on the radio before the record even came out. That song alone is SO much fucking better when you play 'Clang Boom Steam' to lead into it.
>>61679423
Jack Lalanne looked better than that guy and didn't have such an old man face.
>>61679423
So I take it this is one of those propaganda books they sell to baby boomers to convince them that they can live forever.

If we're lucky, this piece of shit. I'm so fucking sick of his edgy try hard bullshit. I can't hate this hack enough.
I realize he's pretty healthy though, so we'll have to pray for him to be hit by a bus. Pray with me brothers
So many people are going to talk about Iggy being a pedo when he dies lmao
>>61680967
>wishing death on someone with a great ass who is nice to look at
Are you gay, or just edgy on all sides?
I'm really praying it's Gene Simmons. Fuck that guy.
>>61681083
im sick to death of people who would be better suited in other genres rapping
>>61681052
No matter how edgy Rollins is he is not really a try hard, he has a pretty clear way of channeling his feelings and thoughts so he might come off like that but eventhough he is a massive asshole he is very genuine.
>>61681087
True but I have a soft spot for hair metal/buttrock so I can't hate him too much.
No one lives forever.
>>61681103
Wow. It's just rap, dude. It's not a secret private club. I'm not going to debate the validity of rap 'music' with you, but I'm just going to say that it could definitely use some diversity and creativity.

>>61681339
What was it like?
>>61681604
Basically like a 3 year old banging on a guitar. I mean, there was nothing there even resembling music. His voice is also totally gone and he'd lose his place or forget the words to songs he's played literally thousands of times.
>>61681578
Fuck dude. Just sunk in that Ride will almost certainly die during my lifetime. Wish that dude didn't smoke so much
>>61681602
Oh dear God, that was so fucking painful to watch. I have never seen an old black man get raped by his managers before. Well, not since I worked at Wal-mart anyway.

BB King and Pinetop Perkins were both a lot better than this in their twilight years. These aren't outstanding gigs compared to their prime, but at least they actually play something resembling music.
You hate to think it but they're all going to start dropping like flies. All the boomers anyway. That generation's grip on the culture has been so ubiquitous for so long, we tend to ascribe a certain immortality to them. But I'm telling you. Any musician born before 1950 or so is on that train. And it's going to be moving fast.
>>61681841
No, I don't think that would work. Even if he could scrape off their bodies, I'm pretty sure the heads would stay in, which may be what is going on inside of his ear.
>>61681841
If you just rip a tick off its head tears off and it can easily cause an infection. You gotta remove them carefully.
>>61681789
JEEZUS FUCK!!! How does that happen? And it looks like that's just a puppy too. Who let's shit like this happen to their dog?
>>61681602
Good ol' Chuck. I can see he's now moved into noise rock and free-form jazz. :^)
>tfw Eno is going to loose the will to live after his favorite collaborator passed
I think he'll be fine.
>>61681901
So people die. Big deal. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, Buddhist cycle of death and rebirth and all that. For every talent that leaves us, a young new one is born. Lose Frank Sinatra, gain Annie Clark.
>>61681052
he just takes life very seriously, i dont see a problem with that its his own perspective
i think youre being a pussy honestly its not like this guy ever directly insulted you
>>61681789
What the fuck are those even? I've never see anything like that, not real life or the internet. Fucking bizarre.
>>61682075
Objectively and cosmically, this is true. Of course most people only see things from their narrow personal perspective.

>>61682075
I don't care at all, I'm just stating the facts. Feels like a whole bunch of celebs are going to go at once, like a culling. Because of the culture, people forget someone like Springsteen is 66. They forget this all the time. And he's one of the younger ones.
>>61682220
he'll be fine
>>61682235
youre right dude
look at how old all the musicians our parents generation loves
this decade most of them will die I bet and im not even being edgy just realistic
Kurt Cobain
>>61682220
seriously if Robert Smith dies i will lose it.
>>61681891
Pinetop was injured in a car wreck when at 92, he tried to beat a train at a crossing. He drove around the barriers and got hit. His car was totaled, but he was unscathed.
That's as impressive as it gets for that age. Not only that he didn't get hurt in the accident, but to still be mentally capable of doing something as complex as navigating around a crossing barrier. Or being brave enough to try and outrun a train considering most elderly people are pretty damn cautious/terrified of any risks.
>>61682269
take that back
i dont know what i would do without him
>>61682257
>>61682235
W/e. If this was 1981, you all would just being saying that all of the guys from Sinatra's era would die off.

Though given how long Chuck Berry has lasted, some of the 60s era guys (who are an entire generation younger than him) could still be with us for quite some time yet.

Bowie was also killed by meme magic. In the same thread someone wrote hell be fine about Bowie.
>>61682326
Yeah but there wasn't as many of them and most of them were out of the limelight by the time they went. Boomers are a whole different animal, they like ran this shit and didn't let go quite so easily. There's never been so many famous people in their sixties and seventies still actively engaged with the culture.
>>61682383
Pretty much all of the big band generation have gone off to Heaven now, but many of the 50s rock-and-rollers are still with us including Chuck, Fats, Little Richard, and Jerry Lee Lewis. Millenials will be middle aged by the time we bury the last hippie-era guys.

It was kind of sad to lose those two since they were the last guys left who really had a direct connection with the Delta blues of the Mississippi cotton fields.

And I'm sure he wasn't a retarded Christfag who believes in old fairy tales in 2016.
>>61682326
This was from a commentary by Christgau on Bing Crosby (he was reviewing a Crosby's greatest hits CD set).
"By most measures, Bing Crosby was the biggest entertainer of the first half of the 20th century. For longer than FDR was president, he mastered all forms of media. Among other things, he pioneered the arts of tape recording and microphone placement. I had long found it difficult to appreciate his recordings as the techniques he developed have been surpassed, but also because he had a certain artificial quality that makes him fall apart if you become aware of it. The only song on this set the younger generation are likely to be familiar with is White Christmas, but for those of us who remember things before the rock-and-roll era, they were a part of our collective consciousness. I can remember my elders singing Crosby's tunes at parties and I knew the words to Swinging on a Star by the age of 4. This was a time when popular music was dominated by Tin Pan Alley, when Irving Berlin ruled. To my generation, it's central to our childhoods, to the younger crowd, a curious glimpse into a bygone culture."

I agree. Iggy's style doesn't lend itself to getting old like Dylan's does.

He looks like a dwarf but fuck he better not die...
>>61683202
I've never heard that Chuck has Alzheimer's or anything, but I do know his hearing and eyesight are really weak which along with arthritis issues would definitely affect his ability to play.
When you can't hear what you're playing, can't see your fretboard, and have stiff as hell fingers, of course the end result is >>61681602

It'll be Mick Jagger. He Lemmy and Bowie were mummies in some Emperor's New Groove scene so itd be fitting for them to die within a week apart from each other
>>61682147
Ticks. My parents have a nice house near wild forest, so occasionally their dogs in the summer get a few of those when they walk though the grass
Fucking disguting animals. I enjoyed removing like fucking 20 off my dog, then putting them on a metal cupcake form, adding a little gasoline and setting them on fire
>>61683558
BB King at least tried to make things easier on himself in the later years by playing seated and inviting guest guitarists to take some of the solo-ing work off his hands.
>>61683076
Prince is 57 and is pretty healthy, he still has at least 20 years of mileage on him
>>61683698
20 years could be low. I'm pretty sure he's super healthy, he should live into his 80s at least. Although he is a Jehovah's Witness and I think they have weird rules about medical stuff, so he could end up dying because of that.
>>61683698
"He'll be fine"
>>61683698
>>61683719
If you kill Prince with meme magic, so help me God....
>>61683716
JWs don't allow blood transfusions. Christian Scientists reject any modern medicine which ended up costing James Hetfield his mom when he was still a kid.
>>61683716
Yeah that's kind why I'm hesitant on thinking Prince is getting past the 80 mile.
>>61681320
Steve howe has looked like death since the mid 80s
