Aw, this one hit me in the heartbollocks... Barry Norman, UK film critic...

Might mean nothing to non-UK folks, but he was the UKs premier film critic for a very long time, presented the BBC's big film show.  I'm a huge film buff and an awful lot of it is due to Mr Norman.  I was a kid, watching kiddie-related films, and then his show introduced me to many films I wouldn't have otherwise watched, thus paving the way to my lifetime obsession with films of all types, old or new, good or bad... is it a bit pretentious to say that the guy shaped my life in a little way?

RIP sir.  And, by the way, he never did actually say 'And Why Not?' (another in-joke that non UK folks won't get...)

Yep I probably owed quite a bit to Mr Norman too

Another one for us film buffs... RIP George A Romero, creator of 'Night Of The Living Dead' and it's sequels ,also some underrated flicks like Knightriders, Martin, Monkey Shines and Creepshow...

Blimey, this is one totally out of the blue, just like Chris Cornell... Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington has killed himself.  I liked some of their earlier stuff, drifted in and out after that, but he had a damn good voice.  Only 41 years old.

Fck really sorry to hear that,  was only into the first cd but always thought that they were an extremely talented bunch . RIP

[Anna Woman von NRW]

Yep - what a shame 

Liked quite a bit of their stuff but always thought this was a fantastic cover:

And to think it was yesterday Chris Cornell's b-day. I heard they were friends. Although I wasn't into Linkin Park's stuff, it's really sad to hear this kind of things.

Wasn`t into Soundgarden or Linkin`Park `til now
Met some younger ones today for coffee and ice cream and they told me something users of FB or are posting about their thoughts about the strong relationship between both man
Not important for me - I like the cover song first time listening - yes,  lost of a great voice

[Wessexy Witch]

Just a personal one for me

My mate lost his wife yesterday morning to that dreaded disease cancer 

Nothing much to say but F**K YOU CANCER

[Master Ray]

Sorry to hear it, Red.  Also lost a few people to that awful thing.  Hope your mate gets through it OK, or at least as OK as can be hoped.
