Celebrity deaths

[Ando85]

It seems in the past few years there has been a great number of dying celebrities.

I always wanted to see George Carlin live, but never did. It seemed like the older he got the funnier he was.

Then there is the tragic death of Dimebag Darrel from Pantera. I actually did get a chance to see him perform with Damage Plan on the same tour mere weeks before he was shot and killed on stage in Ohio.

Which one(s) did you like the most and say in the case of a comedian or musician you regret never seeing them live?

Same here, but it seems like he got the last laugh on us.

Celebrities die all the time, there hasn't been more lately or anything. They die at their usual rate.

Would have liked to have seen Frank Zappa, but generally I stop listening to a person's music as soon as they die. The time to appreciate an artist is when they are alive, not after.

I will certainly miss Clint Eastwood when he passes but I'm going with Bonsaik with:

They are after all human too despite our idolization.
