So I was curious about something. Is there anybody you can think of that met an untimly death in the 90's? I think that Steve Clark had an untimly death. He was way too young to die....when he died, things changed. :\'(  :-\\ :\'(

I would say Richey James Edwards (went Missing - Feb 1st 1995) but his body hasn't been found so no one knows if he's dead or not.


He isn't declared officially dead as his parents refuse to give up hope.

Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman...too bad they didn't give OJ The Juice  >:(

Some of these are from the 2000's...

Steve Clark  (Def Leppard)

Kurt Cobain  (Nirvana)

Shannon Hoon  (Blind Melon)

Andrew Wood ( Pearl Jam)

Bobby Sheehan (Blues Traveler)

2Pac and Notorious B.I.G.

Layne Staley  (Alice In Chains)

Scott Smith    (Loverboy)

Benjamin Orr    (The Cars)

Selena :\'(...she was killed just 16 days before her 24th birthday.

Brad Nowell  (Sublime)



Well bugger me... I never knew.

For me the most unfortunate death was that of Jeff Buckley...who mysteriously drowned in the Mississippi in 1996 (or 97'). He always reminds me of the tragic tortured genius typlified by such musicians as Janis Joplin, Nick Drake, Elliot Smith and to an extent Cobain.

Okay I'm gonna say it . . .

'Texas Tornado' Kerry Von Erich (93) and 'Ravashing' Rick Rood (98?)

Okay I'm gonna say it . . .

'Texas Tornado' Kerry Von Erich (93) and 'Ravashing' Rick Rood (98?) actually 1999


Don't forget - Andre The Giant ('93)

It was Tuesday morning, July 18, 1989. The 21 year old Schaeffer lived in the Fairfax District of Los Angeles, in a Tudor style building at 120 N. Sweetzer. This guy in a yellow Polo shirt keeps showing her photo to anyone that passes him, asking if they know where she lives.....www.findadeath.com/.../ rebecca_schaeffer.htmhttp://www.findadeath.com/Decesed/s/Rebecca%20Schaeffer/Schaeffer%20portrait.JPG :\'(

Rebecca Schaeffer

Kristen Pfaff (Hole)




Courtney love killed him too, I bet. She murdered cobain. believe me she must have bc; he was soooo doped up on heroin to even pick a gun up and shoot himself. any takes on this?

Michael Hutchence (1997)

I don't think he is well known outside the state of Indiana, but John Kascella was the accordian player in some of John Mellencamp's songs such as "Paper In Fire" and "Cherry Bomb". He was tragically killed in a car accident sometime in the late 90s. And Mellencamp's band hasn't been the same since.  :\'(


You probably don't know Mia Zapata either. She was the lead singer of the LA band "The Gits" who was raped and murdered. There are no suspects and the crime goes unsolved. I heard some of her music, and I believe she would have had better success than that hag Courtney Love. (Sorry). She will be missed and I hope there is an arrest soon.
Also Sam Kinison, Kerry VonErick, Owen Hart (The Blue Blazer), and Derrick Thomas. :\'( :\'( :\'( :\'(

Layne Staley did not die in the 90's his body was found on April 19, 2002, and he died 8 years after Kurt Cobain died. Even as an die hard AIC fan have to say that his career was dead basically after 96 ( did maybe 4 songs after that )

I've always considered The Gits a Seattle band.  ;)  The updates on Mia's murder case must have been mostly on a local level. It was all over the news for quite a while here. They caught the guy in late 2002. He has been sentenced to 37 years. There's a link to a 2-part story below:

:\'( Rest in peace, Jerry.

Ray Combs (host of Family Feud)...did you guys know that he killed himself??


Erin :)

Yes...it was in 1996. He had become the Family Feud emcee when the show went back on the air in 1988...his stint lasted five years. According to what I had heard on the E! True Hollywood Story a few years ago, he was going bankrupt...he eventually killed himself. :(

Is that all? :o :o :o :o :o
Well at least he's getting some hard time. But he should never be able to leave prison. :(

I hate hearing about people committing suicide....it's so sad!!  Do you remember that actor Jonathan Brandis (he was in movies such as Ladybugs, and Sidekicks, etc)....I was sick when I heard about him killing himself....he was a talented actor too.

I have a hard time feeling sorry for anyone that kills themselves...

...it may be cruel, but I don't.

Michael Hutchence (1997)
He had also committed suicide, from what I heard. :\'(

the one's i feel bad for the most are the familiies left behind.......but I still feel bad for the individual person because it must be something awful to be in a place like that where suicide is their only option out.


Erin

fair enough.

Wow, I didn't know that "Falco" guy had passed away. That's too bad.

Also, what about JFK Jr., his wife Carolyn and her sister. I was working that day on a jobsite when my boss heard it on the AM radio. I was so sad.  :(
