And today, joining the underground .....

[Setanta]

Old alma mater coach died, great scrum coach. Roly Meates RIP.

[Jetstream]

Legendary scrum coach.

[Cap'n Grumpy]

Trevor Francis (1st £1m transfer) and Chris Bart Williams both getting a free transfer off this mortal coil.

Two very likeable players

Sad day in Sheffield, Nottingham and farther afield.

[Jetstream]

Tony Bennett, Vince Hill and Jane Birkin have also left the stage. Who will forget Je T'aime.....Moi Non Plus?

[Jetstream]

And Sinead O'Connor leaves us today. A troubled soul.

[Dublin4]

Robbie Robertson RIP. What a loss to music.

[justinr73]

And now Mrs Warboys.

Victor Meldrew couldn’t believe it.

[Hans Indaruck]

Robbie Robertson RIP. What a loss to music.

Really sad news. He was responsible for some iconic music with The Band (e.g. The Weight) and some excellent solo and collaborative work (e.g. Somewhere Down The Crazy River) which I for one will never tire of listening to! A real loss indeed!

Parky finally gets his chance to interview Don Bradman and Frank Sinatra….

[mid ulster maestro]

A legend in broadcasting. Parky didn't interview people. He had an interesting conversation with them.

[HwoodMike2umate]

A week late but still possibly worthy of a mention is the passing of Mr Yevgeny Prigozhin who died in a plane crash travelling to his home town St Petersburg from Moscow on 23.8.2023, which, Lest We Forget, was officially DAY 6059. He was just 62 and is buried in Porokhovskoye Cemetery beside his Dad.

[big mervyn]

Also a bit late .. Bernie Marsden, Whitesnake guitarist who wrote or cowrote most of their hits.

Top bloke too. Once saw him perform in Ahoghill!

[Bobbievee]

Jimmy Buffet.
Raise a Margarita.

[Jetstream]

In 2015, Buffett spoke at the University of Miami's graduation ceremony and received an honorary doctorate in music. Wearing flip flops and aviator sunglasses, he told graduates, from a line in his song "The Pascagoula Run", that "it's time to see the world, time to kiss a girl, and time to cross the wild meridian."

[Bobbievee]

Would now have to kiss anybody/somebody, any gender, check first for consensus......doesn't quote scan as well
