Chris Ethridge Dead: Flying Burrito Brothers Bassist Dies At 65 | HuffPost Entertainment
Tommy Marth, saxophonist for The Killers, suicide at 33.
With 3 IRL deaths in as many weeks I don’t have a lot of stomach for this game at the moment. But one from my short list passed away earlier this month (I don’t think anyone had him):
Takeshi Aono- Japanese Voice Actor passed away at age 76
Poker Legend Doyle Brunson just tweeted that another Poker Legend, Thomas Preston, aka Amarillo Slim, is about to muck his cards.
If he makes it through 2012, Texas Dolly’s on my next list.
Tonight on the Irony Channel…
No points for the man with a world record bullet in his head Say what?
Former Yankee Moose (Bill) Skowron dies at 81. He played for six World Series champions (five with the Yankees) in the '50s and '60s and was an 8-time All Star.
Wow. He used to be on my “thought he was dead” list, kind of like Abe Vigoda. I did know he was alive for the last few years, though.
And the news just keeps getting [del]worse[/del] er better! yeah, THAT’S the ticket!:
…in a hearse? 
Oh. 
Not in a hearse. Just regular style.
[Robin Gibb Teminator/]: He’ll be back. [/Robin Gibb Teminator]
I’m going to keep my fingers crossed that no other celebrity dies in the next two and a half hours, because I’m going to post the current standings for April. We had five deaths this month, Levon Helm, Susan Clark, Dick Clark, Mike Wallace, and Young-Woo Kang. There’s a two way tie for first place now, with Captain Lance Murdoch falling back a bit.
