Rest in peace, Bernie Marsden.

Come on down! Bob Barker, RIP.
RIP Mr. Barker. How old was he? About 100 ??
99
About a hundred...
Both Bob Barker and Betty White didn't quite make it to the century mark.

This one hurts me a lot, especially this morning: Brian McBride, half of ambient duo Stars of the Lid, at 53
Love Stars, and always quietly hoped they'd make a comeback at some point. RIP.

R.I.P. Jimmy Buffet
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF STUPID PEOPLE IN LARGE GROUPS!
Sorry to hear that. RIP.
😄 winner!
Bummer. I never got to see him but man did he have followers from everywhere. 76 is a pretty decent run but still... have a cheeseburger in paradise

Jimmy Buffett was a talented guy and I enjoy many of his early songs. His lyrics were clever, compelling and unique. At his best he was a first-rate storyteller.
But for me the shtick has worn really thin. At a resort pool bar on Hilton Head a few years back, I lightheartedly complained to the bartender that I really didn't need to be subjected to Margaritaville every hour for an entire week. He answered "how do you think I feel. I'm here all season".

Rest in peace, Jimmy Buffett.
The last time I was on one of my Country binges I played a couple of his early albums on YT. Very Country sounding with steel guitar and all. This is his pre-Margarita era.
I'm in a pub in Florida, and Margaritaville just came on, on the house music.....Ya think? A Mexican cutie.....
I stopped by my local record store today and "Margaritaville" was on the sound system. Are they playing it all day, or what?I'm in a pub in Florida, and Margaritaville just came on, on the house music.....Ya think? A Mexican cutie.....

Maybe I'll go to karaoke and do "Why Don't We Get Drunk and Screw", my favorite Jimmy Buffett tune.

I used to sing that one from time to time to girls in college. No one ever took me up on it...
I think the Dead Kennedy's were more accurate - "To Drunk To Fuck".
What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it brings forth a sound (2112)
I heard "Come Monday" at the bank. Not sure if someone picked it for today.
RIP Jimmy Buffett.

RIP Jimmy Buffet. A far better songwriter than I think many would give him credit for and wow, he played the music business game better than most anyone. I've never been even close to being a Parrothead but I appreciate his craft and his ability to deliver to his fanbase (and to milk them for every $ and then some).
I don't like country music, but I don't mean to denigrate those who do. And for the people who like country music, denigrate means 'put down.'- Bob Newhart
