Not in Crawley Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 (edited) Fair point well made but seems to be a year for "musicians" this year. Maybe it's an age thing Its partly the fact many people who became famous via traditional media from the late 60's are reaching the end of their lives, but this year has seen a spike anyway in comparison to previous years - which hasn't really got anything to do with 2016 being a cliff edge for a generation - doesn't really work like that and look at the diversity of the age range. So next year might seem a lull, it might not, although the baby boomers are not going to stop dying.

Moderators Zico Posted December 9, 2016 Moderators Share Posted December 9, 2016 Fair point well made but seems to be a year for "musicians" this year. Maybe it's an age thing aye, the majority of them that have gone are 65+, and as Casino said we're now getting to the generations where they've been famous throughout most of our lifetimes the only ones who arguably went early this year was Prince, at 57, and Caroline Aherne at 52 the rest are just old http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/celebrity-deaths-2016-famous-faces-7797848 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
