iamshack Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Oct 9, 2011 -> 12:04 PM) Former Weezer bass player Mikey Welsh, who also found success in his second career as an artist, died in a Chicago hotel room. He was in Chicago to see Weezer perform and hang out with the guys. Sad. He freaking tweeted two weeks ago that he had a dream he would die in Chicago. Then two weeks later, he dies in Chicago, in his sleep. Gotta be suicide. Washington Post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 http://www.radio-info.com/news/co-writer-o...-hey-dies-at-68 Co-writer of Steam's "Na Na Hey Hey" dies at 68 In 1969, Paul Leka and his songwriting/performing partner Gary DeCarlo needed a B-side for a Buddah Records single that wouldn't tempt DJs to "flip from the A side." So in the studio, they improvised on a riff they'd come up with years before, leaving in the "dummy lyric" of "na na na na" and make sure it was long enough (4 minutes) not to get radio airplay. But Buddah liked it and made "Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye)" the A side - and it went to #1. (The group name on the record label, "Steam", was a made-up name for the studio duo of Leka and DeCarlo.) The New York Times says the song's real longevity began in 1977, when Chicago White Sox ballpark organist Nancy Faust began using it to needle the opposing team when something went wrong for them. From there, it gained immortality at arenas and fields around the country. Paul Leka was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, and was pitching new songs to publishers in New York when he was just 16. The Times says he worked for Mercury, Elektra and CBS Records, and ran his own recording studio in Bridgeport, working with artists such as Gloria Gaynor, Stevie Wonder and Kris Kristofferson.

southsider2k5 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 http://www.nwitimes.com/entertainment/musi..._medium=twitter LONDON | A coroner says Amy Winehouse died as the unintended consequence of drinking too much alcohol. Coroner Suzanne Greenaway gave a verdict of "death by misadventure," saying the singer had voluntarily consumed alcohol and risked the consequences. The singer, who had fought drug and alcohol problems for years, was found dead in bed at her London home on July 23 at age 27. A pathologist told the singer's inquest Wednesday that Winehouse had consumed a "very large quantity of alcohol" and was more than five times over the legal drunk-driving limit when she died.

Depending on how much she weighed exactly and whether she'd eaten beforehand...a .5 BAC is something in the range of 15+ drinks over the span of a few hours.

FlaSoxxJim Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Is "death by misadventure" a uniquely British coroner's category or do we use that here as well? I know that was written on Brian Jones' coroner's report as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
