I imagine this is one of those deals where everyone thinks the members are different, right? Like I would have had the four above, plus Brian Jones, as the core. Cobain not core if you say it was established in the 70s, I guess. Then ...

- D. Boon
- The Pigpen guy from the Grateful Dead
- Mia Zapata
- Kristen Pfaff
(both probably because of timing so close to Cobain and their Seattle-ness)
- Amy Winehouse as the most modern member but also probably closer to the core than any of the others above here

I also would have swore Shannon Hoon was a member but he died 26 days too late.

From comments, it was caused by the vaccination. For both Fenton and Swanigan. People suck so bad.

"Guys, can we squelch the vaccinations are good vs vaccinations are bad debate once and for all until it's proven Ferguson died due to complications from his vaccination?"

No mention of his acting performance in The 25th Hour. Goddamn young to pass away.

Siragusa used to be the co-owner of the restaurant where my kid works. Which makes us absolutely nothing.

Monty Norman, the man who composed the James Bond theme

Didn't know:

His theme song became synonymous with the franchise, although the producers were not happy with Norman’s original arrangement and drafted in a young John Barry to rearrange the piece.

Barry - who died in January 2011 at the age of 77 - went on to compose the scores for 11 of the Bond films between 1963 and 1987.

Barry did claim that he was responsible for creating the theme, prompting Norman to bring libel action against two publications for repeating this claim, and he won both.

Holy shit, yes. I love Big Moma Thornton's voice, but for some reason I never went down that rabbit hole to learn about her or seek out her music.
