Alan Minter RIP, British boxing legend and former world middleweight champion

That really is sad, we saw him live in 2012 and he was like a 20 year old on the stage. A great performer. RIP

That’s is sad news. I also saw them live about 10 years ago. They were excellent. One of the best roots reggae bands out there.

Yes, big shame, Toots and the Maytals are what first got me into ska, rocksteady etc.

Eddie Van Halen has jumped off this mortal coil

Eddie Van Halen! No way! How the hell did he kick before David Lee Roth.

Fuck that sucks. Idk why but I loved Van Halen when I was little. Getting shit faced and blasting some of the epic Sammy ballads later.

One of the coolest Rock and Roll moments of all time.

Eddie Van Halen going early is a HUGE loss for the rock music fraternity. That guy was a legendary guitarist. Gone too soon!

    Van Halen bros’ back up vocals were sublime. Like a choir of heavenly angels.

    alistair that is superb. I like the people in the comments being like “Fred was just being chill. Over reaction Ed!” Lol!
