"kinda famous" people you miss

[pokerbobo]

This is for the dead people who were known... but not super famous


Do not post Jimi Hendrix, James Dean, Cobain, Elvis. and the like.


There are a few people I really wish were still around.

1)Lane Staley (singer, Alice in Chains) Had a unique voice, and I realized after he was gone how great a band that they were.

2)Shannon Hoon (singer Blind Melon) Not the best band by any means, but this guy was the band. After he died they could never replace him. He was a druggie nut... but funny and unique.

3)River Phoenix --- I think he had the chops to be a good actor... not Deniro good, but good.

You guys pick the rest.

PS... I think it would be cool to see how Stu Ungar would have fared against the huge main event fields now. He has such a mystique about how good he was.

maybe too bigtime to fit the qualification of "kinda famous" but [censored] it i miss him a lot. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

From your list it seems like dying young is part of the qualifications, so is Payne Stewart too famous for this list? I think he's significantly less famous than River Phoenix. I miss that guy because he was so easy to root for. He made watching golf fun enough to be worthwhile.

I was saddened to learn Peter Tomarken died in a plane crahs last year.

Straight up gansta, wrong n*gga to [censored] wit!! I loved listening to this guy's raps, both on his solo album and when he was with NWA.

Probably, and I don't think you can mention him without mentioning Phil Hartman.
