Bedford Roughyed Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 RIP Donald 'Duck' Dunn. With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolford6 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 RIP Donald 'Duck' Dunn. A sad loss. Many of our younger board members won't remember how strong the Stax sound was. I hope a British TV station runs a repeat of the Blues Brothers (I) movie as a tribute. Under Scrutiny by the Right-On Thought Police Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Dunn and Shelby - two legendary figures in their own fields. Duck was still playing, right to the end, too.

Futtocks Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Not wanting to arouse fears, but that's the drummer and bass player from this album gone within days of each other. Hope things don't go in threes, as superstitious types often claim. Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted.

Stan Doffarf Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Only saw Duck once, when he was in Clapton's band in 83. Great player. RIP. And when they found our shadows Grouped around the TV sets They ran down every lead They repeated every test They checked out all the data on their lists And then the alien anthropologists Admitted they were still perplexed But on eliminating every other reason For our sad demise They logged the only explanation left This species has amused itself to death No tears to cry no feelings left This species has amused itself to death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleep1673 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 so any time some elderly relative of the Kennedy's dies, it's part of the curse? She was 52 and had a drug problem, like many Americans, and she died. It's not part of a curse, it's called the circle of life. And as she was 52, she was just 2 when JFK was shot, are you going to tell me it's all part of the conspiricy next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
