RIP lovely people

Bummed I never got to see Mojo, but I listened to him a lot while I was in college.

The music of this one was totally ripped off from the Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray", but it's a lot more fun and even more perverted and sacrilegious.

Yeah, Mojo and the Toadliquors were tons of fun. That's sad news.

Pretty cool.

Thsnks for posting that. Great story!

RIP Kelvin Kiptum, Kenyan marathon runner and current world record holder, who was aiming to become the first person ever to break 2hours. Sadly killed, along with his coach, in a car accident aged only 24.

This really sucks.

*in an officially recognized settings.

Obviously a tremendous loss for the running community. Him vs. Kipchoge in Paris was the most hyped marathon battle in a very long time.

RIP Alexei Navalny

a brave man who fought for human rights in his country

a very small percentage of humans would've gotten on a plane back to RUS after surviving a poisoning attempt on their life

I don't know, borders on ding dong and brave.

I’m a bit late to the going away party but Maron played the portion of a live WTF when Mojo was a guest of in 2011. Had a great talk and even played a tune!! It’s at the beginning of Monday’s episode with Ed Zwick.

From the Continental Club stage in 2023 Mojo declared that the final Mojo’s Mayhem would occur in 2024. He handpicked the lineup for the Final Mayhem, dialing each band himself in January with the excitement of a ringmaster planning his magnum opus.
Mojo’s Final Mayhem isn’t just an event; it’s the ultimate send-off for a man whose spirit embodied the heart of rock ‘n roll.

“What are you waitin’ for,” asks Mojo Nixon. “Are you gonna party up in Heaven? I heard they ain’t got no booze up there!”

We have lost the hilarious Richard Lewis. RIP.

I feel like he's big enough to us old guys to get his own thread.

Speaking of front men who have left us, RIP Eric Carmen

Louis Gossett Jr (87) passed. Won an Oscar for An Officer and A Gentleman. But was also in the Iron Eagle franchise, so it might be a wash?

Too soon?

Former outranks the latter, he gets a pass.
