Lemmy
Few days before his death:
He looks like he's already dead. Must have been in a world of pain if he wasn't on Morphine or something by that point.
I was a little surprised he wasn't already dead. He's had that Keith Richards thing of looking about ninety five since he was about thirty going on, so he's looked half an hour away from dying from the very first time I seen him.
Guru Josh has died, apparently.
I see Srnicek has died. I actually hadn't realised he didn't die last week.
How can you only discover an 'aggressive' form of cancer only two days prior to death?
I'm guessing he knew something was wrong but refused to go to the doctors.
He looks properly drained in that photo, even for him.
Pavel Srnicek has left the stadium.
Anyone else see Pavel Srnicek has died?
Corey Graves of WWE posted this yesterday on Twitter, and when I saw the picture, I thought Lemmy looked like an ill man. Not sure when it was taken:
Pav as well
Sometimes it goes undiagnosed. One of my former work colleagues had an ill father for months and he was being tested for everything. They were convinced it was to do with his diet and was some sort of Crohn's like disease or Celiac. On the day of his death they told him it was colon cancer.
Specials drummer has died.
Man, Pav's passing has got me.
Cause of death unclear. That means drugs.
Lemmy.
Though only getting the diagnosis two days before doing one, that's got to be the perfect way to go, right?
Steve Gohouri.

Holy fucking shit?!
Bit stunned by this one, didn't know he had cancer. 71 is a decent age though. Just very sad. What a legacy he leaves behind.
Except he's 69.
Alan Rickman apparently. Not a great start to 2016.
RIP Gruber.
The 69 club has another member.
Fucking hell
How'd he die? Fall multiple storeys from the Nakatomi Plaza?
People are already incorrectly saying he died at Christmas.
Wait what? He looked healthy no?
I've a feeling my girlfriend will be more upset by that than if it were me.
Cancer apparently.
Has surprise cancer taken the place of the terrifying 'a short illness'?
That actually sucks .
Test.
I heard he was shot in the head by a snaper.
That sucks. Alan Rickman was better than all of you.
"Chute da glarse"
Hopefully Die Hard will make an appearance soon.
Nevermind. We still have Jeremy Irons.
In a strong field, that's the least funny post you've ever made.
I did have a lol at someone yesterday saying that the one positive to be taken from 'The 69 Club's aggressive recruitment policy' was that Donald Trump was currently sixty nine.
Was the 69 club previously a thing, or did Bowie start it?
69 seems a relatively likely age to die if you ask me. Just a few years from 'decent innings' territory.
I'd have it down as an age that's ripe for the grim reaper to pay a visit to those who haven't led a particularly healthy life up to that point (as well as some unlucky bastards).
I wouldn't be happy with 69 if offered now.
I certainly fucking wouldn't, I'd have lived over 50% of my life already if that's the case.
69 is probably good going for a someone who would have lived through the brunt of the 60s/70s/80s. I'm not sure that era of celebrity is going to make for too many old bones.
Modern excess really pales in comparison.
Lumping? Pun or coincidence?
Lemmy rephrase that.
For reference, other celebrities who are 69:

Barry Gibb

Stay safe, kids.
