OMG. Lemmy, John Bradbury, Bowie - who’s next, Tony Iommi? 😦

I didn’t even know he had been battling cancer. 69 is too soon to go. Same age my Dad was when he died. : (

One of the best presents I ever got from my Mom was a Bowie CD boxset.

Where were you in '77?

I can’t imagine it was a very happy celebration.

It’s a good album and a classy exit. Like Angus Scrimm who also 'died" Dave always comes back.

A little thing like death wouldn’t stop that.

I’m going to put the Laughing Gnome on now 😃

I wonder if this will bring Zig back to say a few words.

I don’t particularly like his music, but he was the primary reason for Stevie Ray Vaughan getting discovered, so I respect him. RIP

I was shocked to find out. I had no idea he was ill; I’m glad he was able to finish his final album.

Another significant part of my youth. Some great classics.
Ground control to Major Tom, check ignition and may God’s love be with you.

I am glad I saw him in person at Monsterpalooza in 2014. And there’s his final role in Phantasm V to look forward to. The trailer gave almost as many goosebumps as the TFA one did.

1994 was a crappy year for me. My father had just died of cancer. My nephew died after a few days of life. I had a bit of a mental breakdown and dropped out of university and fell out with close friends.
Around that time I discovered a couple of movies made a few years before starring Alan Rickman.
One was Truly, Madly Deeply (1991) which really helped me through the grieving process and the other was Closet Land (1991) which was a truly horrific depiction of torture with hardly any gore at all which really informed my politics and helped me get my mojo back. Thanks for that Mr Rickman. I wonder how much closer to solutions to these horrid diseases if we stopped blowing each other up.

By Grabthar’s Hammer, he will be avenged.

Well this news makes me really sad and it came out of nowhere.

It reminds me of how shocked i was when Elizabeth Sladen died.

So sad😦

I lost one of my Grandfather’s to cancer when I was only five and I had only met him twice. Man I hate cancer.

My ratings for the Star Wars movies. EP1 4.5/10. Ep2 4.0/10. EP3 2.0/10. EP4 9.5/10. EP5 10/10 EP6 8.5/10 EP7 8.3/10.
