Everyone in Elizabeth, stand down.


So, are you saying, "London Bridge is down"?

Sir Roger Moore has passed after a brief battle with cancer, aged 89

Grew up loving the Bond films and a couple of his were amongst my favourites.

I think he's attempting re-entry sir!

RIP

Yes he voiced Batman in the Batman vs Two-Face animated movie which is yet to be released.

I was first introduced to Adam West when he voiced the Gray Goast, Bruce Wayne's childhood hero in Batman the Animated Series. That was a nice gesture and bridged the gap between the Adam West and Kevin Conroy era's. A recent nod to Adam West's Gray Goast was an Easter Egg, a movie poster titled 'The Goast in Gray' in Batman Arkham Knight.

I also loved him as the Mayor of Quahog in Family Guy.

Hybrid Theory and Meteora have been in my rotation since they came out. They were the first two albums I saved when I got Spotify Premium.

Hybrid Theory was the first CD I bought with my own money as well.

I'm not usually effected by celebrity deaths but this one bummed me out this morning.

Yeah such a bummer, they were first band I really fell in love with.

Was around 10 when Hybrid Theory came out, they were the first band I really listened to as I was getting into music.

Musical taste has changed a lot since then and I haven't really listened to anything since Minutes to Midnight. But those first three albums were pretty massive to me.

So glad I got to see them play. Chesters voice was unreal live.

RIP.

Not a celebrity as such, but music producer Tony Cohen died, aged 60, on August 1.
I kind of feel like he produced the Australian tunes of most of my teenaged years - Nick Cave, TISM, Powderfinger, Cruel Sea, Beasts of Bourbon.
