Jerry Lee Lewis dies at 87 View attachment 460616
In music circles there's an apocryphal story of a photo existing taken backstage at some Rock n' Roll multi-band concert. In said photo Jerry Lee has a pistol pointed at Chuck while Berry is supposed to have a straight razor to the other mans neck. Don't know if it's true BUT I've heard the tale many times from folks who should know. Still, he was there near the start. Isn't Fat's Domino still with us?Gee, I thought it was Chuck Berry

Worf
I think the Fat Man may have preceeded the other two by a few years. But they were all musical pioneers. Elvis bowed down to the Fat Man.Maybe Fats Domino, Little Richard and Chuck Berry kickstarted circa at the same time?
According to Billboard... Only Elvis sold more records in the 50's than Antoine "Fats" Domino. And he was a helluva piano player/song writer to boot.I think the Fat Man may have preceeded the other two by a few years. But they were all musical pioneers. Elvis bowed down to the Fat Man.
Leo Gallagher, best known as simply "Gallagher" and for his unique brand of stand-up humor that included the slaughter of innocent watermelons with a home-made device he dubbed the "Sledge-O-Matic", died in Palm Springs this morning at the age of 76. Gallagher had been experiencing declining health in recent years after a couple of "mild to serious" heart attacks, and was under hospice care at home.

I never liked D.C. To me they were the "Yankees" of comicdom. I was always a Marvel Man... until I began watching "Batman- The Animated Series". As stated by many, Kevin Conroy IS the voice of the Caped Crusader from now till the earth falls off its axis. He's the only reason why I EVER viewed anything in the DCEU. He'll be sorely missed by me and millions. Hell, it's been a bad week all round.Voice actor Kevin Conroy, who for many of us will always be the definitive Batman!
