FWIW, I recognized the Krissy Taylor pic. Her sister Nikki got in a near-fatal car wreck about 5 years ago and I believe just now getting back to modelling (but not swimsuit modelling..I think she's got scars.)

Sticking with the OP's "rules": Roger from Zapp and Roger. Betcha there's only 3 people on this forum who know him/of him.

maybe too famous in the general population, but in oot, would thurmond munson qualify? what gregory hines?

irl, she'd be dead by now, but i think vera ellen died much too young, and, though she was big because of two movies she did, she didn't achieve near the fame for her dancing and her legs that she could have if she'd lived longer.

Man, this is the saddest one for me, and fits the criteria well. For those who don't know, this is Greg Moore, who died during a race in California in one of the worst wrecks I've seen. Was a really cool guy, from all I've known about him. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

also, Ed McBain (maybe too famous for this thread) and Phillip R Craig

[Rushmore]

OK, as many have rightly indicated, there are too many actually full-on famous people being mentioned. Freddie Mercury? John Candy? Jerry Garfrickincia? These people are mega-famous.

To me, the only good answers thus far have been GG Allin, Joe Strummer, the guy from The Manic Street Preachers, Johnny Thunders, and Rockets Redglare.

I'll add one: Spaulding Gray.

Benny Hill

Can anyone find a searchable database of Q scores? That'd help make this a lot more objective, but a quick google didn't turn up much.

Joe Strummer was very famous, and Spaulding Gray was pretty famous too.

Good choices for people to miss though. I was definitely sad to see those guys go. Especially the way Spaulding went.
