Actually I think this is more tragic than Ronald Reagan and Ray Charles' deaths... Quorthon was only 39 years old... It's an unfair world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MennoniteHobbit Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 May whoever he is rest in peace. Actually I think this is more tragic than Ronald Reagan and Ray Charles' deaths... Quorthon was only 39 years old... It's an unfair world Even babies 5-seconds old die... younger than 39. Lots of people die young. But again, may he rest in peace.

Doomie Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 Astrotoy, you know you are the only one in this thread that jokes about this and makes fun of it all? That's pretty rude. Man, sometimes you just have these 'death waves'... A couple a weeks ago the swamp also had quite some threads about people that died... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toms Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 39 is a pretty good age for a rock star... although rock stars these days aren't what they used to be... too much healthy eating and not enough S,D&RnR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
