    Lets not delve past Rock's A list , to that ever longer Rock's B list of forever forgottens.


    Ike Turner
    Janis Joplin
    Michael Jackson
    Kurt Cobain
    Sid Viscious
    Brent Mydland
    Dee Dee Ramone
    Tommy Bolin
    Jimi Hendrix
    Amy Winehouse
    Whitney Houston
    Bon Scott
    John Entwhistle
    Elvis Presley
    Jim Morrison
    Gary Thain

    But number the thousands of wannabees that carked it in a crack-house in Menlo Calif, or Warribee, Vic, or a Maccers car park in Logan, Qld, or an OD in Plumpton of an ice/oil bundle/bungle of kids having barely mastered the chords to the main rif to 'a stairway to heaven'.

    And then to the kids that never got passed a triangle in the third grade... the hopefuls. To the 7500 benzodiazepine deaths last year in the US Or maybe the 5500 US coke heads who never made it., and the just over 10000 heroins addicts who died in the US last year alone. And now ice OD surges to second spot in the US & here

    That's 2015 alone.

    Not the full tally of the 50 years that preceded it. What the? About a million people dead?

    You think maybe less than half had once thought "Oh how cool!" So lets take a hit, and make it to the mosh pit?
    Just a good hit, and then the music man.

    Just a thousand few...

    In 2015-2016 alone.

    An apology?

    Only a sorry.
