How did he die? Did he get the jitterbug?

The 80s were an exciting time for me as far as music. Still enjoy a bunch of it.

Very sad. David Bowie. Prince. 2016
Glenn Frey, too.

That’s what I thought. He had pneumonia a little while back.
it really doesn’t matter. It’s way too early to die.

Oh my goodness, my sister was just talking about him yesterday and was wondering what ever happened to him. He had a terrific voice. RIP George Michael.
100 million units sold on global markets. That is substantial.

A performer best known for getting arrested in public toilets?

Sounded like multiple bouts of pneumonia resulting in a tracheostomy then death. Could be end stage AIDS. Or not.
To: monkapotamus
Too young, but given his propensity to exceed design tolerances with his own body, not really surprising. Perhaps he came to light at the last? One can hope.

It’s been a terrible year with the deaths of so many musical people. Including my best friend.

Been a busy day. I cannot even fathom the others who have passed this year. Their music left an indelible mark on my life. Sad. But grateful for their talent.

A few too many forays in public wash rooms scouting for casual sex partners. It’s a dangerous lifestyle choice.

i think some gays [and people who contract AIDS] take care of themselves after they have been diagnosed.
But the news had some stories where he may have been pushing it. I think you can’t still live a reckless life after you’ve been diagnosed.

He has a long history of drug use and impaired driving.
My first guess on cause of death would be accidental overdose.
Second guess - deliberate overdose.
Third guess - drug or AIDS related health issue (he almost died from pneumonia several years ago).
Fourth guess - just a bad luck, unexpected, early death.
To: jerod
Agreed. Per above “Death by Jitterbug”.
