Can the next celebrity who dies be a non national treasure we won't miss, please.

If you're opening the floor for nominations, how about Pauly Shore?

Oh, if we've got to restrict ourselves to living people on that list, I guess I'd go with Reggie Jackson.

Seems like a bad things to be an entertainer aged 69 or 70 in the first few weeks after Christmas; first Lemmy, then David Bowie and now Alan Rickman.  :(

Not a Brit, but Otis Clay passed away of a sudden heart attack on January 8th, aged 73. 
A gospel and R&B singer/songwriter, he collaborated with many artists and was one of the first artists for Cotillion Records, so important to the "soul blues" movement of the late 60s and early 70s.



RIP Alan Rickman.

I missed that. :(

Always sad to see a talented singer or musician go.

Good legacy though.

So, apparently, Tim Curry is also a 69 y.o. British celebrity. And he is recovering from a stroke.  :ph34r:
