The Crafty Cockney Takes His Final Bow at 60.

RIP Eric Bristow. :lou_sad:

Edit: Opps bit late to the show.

Again, I am not condoning drinking and driving but also again, there was a big drinking culture amongst footballers in the 60s 70s and 80s which led to many of the players having alchohol problems later when they hung up their boots. He was very open about his battle with alcoholism. It can’t be much fun. Look what it did to George Best. Jimmy Greaves suffered with it. It could well have prompted Wilkins’ early demise. Any form of addiction is not healthy but it doesn’t make someone a bad person.

Dale Winton … just 62 !

Dale Winton has pushed his last shopping trolly, painted himself orange for the last time and is no longer in it to win it.

RIP.

I feel bad for never having heard of him. Was he any good?

Just read a bit of the back story.

Obviously a shock to everyone he was even in Oman, but had health issues for some time.

And yes Dinger he had some great dance tracks and mates who saw him live loved him

Well I’m sorry to hear that. I hope I didn’t sound flippant. Usually in touch with music, but this guy had passed me by. x

No worries Dinger.

We’ll wake you up when it’s all over

I’d never heard of him either. Just read that he earned $250,000 a night on tour. That’s a lot of cabbage for spinning records.

Did he do weddings?

I DJed a wedding once. Got paid in beer. I feel now that I might have been short-changed.

A friend recommended Frightened Rabbit to me. Saw them at Soton uni and only saw Scott play solo at Frank Turner’s Lost Evening last year. Tonight we are heading to the first night of Lost Evenings where I am sure Scott will be remembered.

I could have written that myself as a friend recommended them to me too.

I saw he was missing but hadn’t realised they’d found a body.

A terrible waste. Hope he’s found some sort of peace and that those he’s left behind are not too scarred.

This seems apt.
