Motörhead frontman Ian 'Lemmy' Kilmister dies at 70

I know, I'm probably one of the few "headbangers" from back in the day but Lemmy and Motorhead were pioneers in the music industry. I'll sure miss that awful mustache and legendary mole cranking away on that bass guitar.

From the Eagles Website:
"It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our comrade, Eagles founder, Glenn Frey, in New York City on Monday, January 18th, 2016. Glenn fought a courageous battle for the past several weeks but, sadly, succumbed to complications from Rheumatoid Arthritis, Acute Ulcerative Colitis and Pneumonia."

"The Frey family would like to thank everyone who joined Glenn to fight this fight and hoped and prayed for his recovery. Words can neither describe our sorrow, nor our love and respect for all that he has given to us, his family, the music community & millions of fans worldwide."

Joe Alaskey, you ALL know him as the voice of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck passed away at the age of 63.

My fiancee told me "the man who voiced Bugs Bunny died" and I looked at her and said "Mel Blanc died over 20 years ago"

I guess I forgot someone had to voice him for all these years.
