Oh, damn. So many iconic musicians passed away in the last 10 years. RIP, Ric.

Going to get a lot worse in the next couple years since we have so many iconic musicians either in their 70's or rapidly approaching that age.Originally Posted by Duplicitous

I listened to "The Cars: Greatest Hits" in celebration of his life. It sucks. I'm looking at Eddie Van Halen, Brian May, David Lee Roth, Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Annie and Nancy Hart, Stevie Nicks, and Mick Fleetwood, Sammy Hagar to not be close behind. I sure hope I am wrong though.

Sammy still looks damn good and is loving life, I hope he makes it another 20 yrs. Personally I think Ozzy will be next.Originally Posted by marinevet63031

Brian May still has some life in him. And when he goes, he'll just head straight out to the stars.Originally Posted by marinevet63031

Dang. The Cars made some great tunes. I just read that he and his wife had split in 2018 after 28 yrs of marriage. I didn't know that. I'm guessing the poor guy died alone. That sucks.
