Celebrity (and not so) Deaths 2024 onwards

Wash your pom-poms, Ice.

It seems a bit uncouth for ABC to use an image of presumably the exact moment he died..

I remember him as a giant of a player as I was growing up. Another past champion gone. RIP Don.

First ruck at 6’2ā€ after Geoff Leek retired after 1962.

Always gave it his all. But he was playing in the 50s. That’s 70 odd years ago. He outlived the average.

Frog ā– ā– ā– ā– .

Go to his funeral and say that then.

Seriously, carry on with your multi blah blah.

I do not agree with his apparent right wing views. Accept the absolute fact that he made a mark on world music or shut up.

I actually remember him for Jesus Christ Superstar with Farnham, Waters and Ceberano.

My wife’s got that soundtrack. Isn’t Virgil Donati the drummer on all of it?

Didn’t The Chaser have a song for this?

I’m honestly at a loss as to what has upset you (and apparently two other people) about my post.

It’s also the second time I’ve seen someone say ā€˜go to his funeral and say that.’ Since when was that a thing?

And also, no. I won’t shut up. And I don’t post multis.

Ok, I apologise.

I was having a moment.

Great show on a Saturday morning

They had an interesting off-stage persona

There was a commercial video (VHS) of something called Adult Party Games, or the like. No X-rated stuff, but lots of nudity. One of the males performing was one of the main singers in Bay City Rollers, sans Roller Strollers. Probably mid 80s.

Pretty sure it was them, but one band member accused the other raping him plus some other pretty sick stuff
EDIT: looked it up again, two band members accused their manager of attempted rape and the other one rape.
The manager had prior convictions against under age boys

The members of BCR have very little money to show for their success. It appears to have been taken by their manager.
