Merzbow Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Gen's passing is a tough one to talk about after reading Cosey's book, they meant so much to me during the formative years of me finding art outside of the metal/punk scenes but the physical, psychological and emotional abuse allegations from the book on top of lots of other claims over the years just left a real sour taste in my mouth.

Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted March 16, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 16, 2020 Roy Hudd RIP. I absolutely love Roy Hudd. From his writing to his incredible knowledge of music hall and variety. A true comedy giant, and one of the nicest people you could ever wish to meet. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/entertainment-arts-51906543 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Red Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Echo the love for Roy Hudd, I was a big fan of the News Huddlines in the late 80s/early 90s. Sad one, but he leaves a great legacy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 21, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2020 I wondered why my friend in Facebook had shared Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In) on Facebook this morning. Did some great songs. Sad loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
