The RIP Thread

That must of been in the early ‘Charley says’ days ? When Keith has long hair and was wearing raver gear ?
I must of seen them about 10 times and never had a bad night......always got the crowd going and full of energy....I’m truly devestated

 

Was thinking that nobody had died recently that bothered me, of course it’s always sad if someone dies. Then this, saw them a couple of times, as Staines says never a bad night, never a bad album, a brilliant, unique band. RIP Keith

 

That is such sad news. They had just sorted dates for a tour.

 

I had heard the same......goes to show, depression doesn’t give a **** who you are or what you’ve got

 

Gobsmacked when I heard this today, really sad news. He was well known amongst the motorcycle fraternity and owned a racing team that had wins at the Isle of Man TTs. Some of his music, particularly in the 90s, was exceptionally innovative. RIP Keith...

Luke Perry 52 died after a stroke earlier in the week. RIP

 

While his music is instantly forgettable, James Blunt is a top bloke.

 

I was gonna say the same...his twitter feed is the funniest about and he’s never afraid to take the piss out of himself.

i got home last night and turned on the cd player which still had fat of the land in it
turning it up just that little bit louder
googled the last album because i hadnt got it yet and went to see if kiwi junior would download me a copy
he told me they were here in feb which pissed me off no end because i would have gone had i known
didnt even know they were on a world tour
anyway
when the wife got home i told her that if the tour is still going in december we will be going to wherever they are playing for my 50th
did share a little tear when she told me the news this morning

rip keith

one of the few bands that could make me bounce in the kitchen

 

Just noticed this
Groundbreaking band and the music will always be there ... nothing comes close if you need energy ... fat of the land maybe the best record cover of all time imo
On the suicide... no excuses imo it’s the ultimate selfishness black and white for me

 

The last year has taught me that MH and suicide is definitely not black and white.........

 

Just got home
Going to see Bryan ferry tonight
Having a few beers
Playing fat of the land
Loud
Like it should be played

 

Bouncin in the kitchen

 

Sorry I disagree white is life and black the end
Of course my feelings are personal on the subject doesn’t make me right of course
White is a future Black is the end of that and the investment of love that others may have to the person. The black dog doesn’t mean it all ends in death The black dog has no power against the white.
Suicide will always be there it’s final and I will always fight with the white light to anyone I know or notice ... that is all anyone can do

Getting into grey areas muddles the situation every time

I doubt if any of us knew Keith Flint pretty sure some didn’t even know his name

The creative work he did lives on regardless so I am only left with the fact that the man killed himself and he is now dead. His choice it’s over

Hope the group can continue to create great music and even get a new front man that is equally exciting as Keith Flint who left the group and left life for the rest of us to continue naturally

Same goes for anyone who ends up killing themselves

 

Magenta Devine, 61.

 

I had to google her ‘cos I knew the name but couldn’t remember the face. When I did I instantly recognised her as the face of ‘youth’ TV before it got trendy. Watched her many times on ‘Network 7’ and she always seemed a cut above the rest......

RIP Magenta........yet another nail in the coffin of my youth
