RIP Wojciech Paszkowski (passed away today). :( One of the greatest Polish dub/voice actors in history. The superstar of 90's dubs, and the voice that molded the childhoods of me and other Zillennials. That hurt.

Belated I'm afraid, but I've just found out that Herbie Flowers died last Thursday...


Very sad news...

Very sad indeed - I first remember him as a member of Blue Mink.

I should have posted it earlier, but forgot due to the intrusion of real life... Billy Swann, bassist of the great Canterbury-affiliated band The Muffins (from the Washington DC area), passed away on August 26 after a long illness. I was lucky to see the band on stage three or four times before they decided to call it quits, and they were always excellent and entertaining to watch. RIP Billy.

And, most relevant for progheads, as the bass player in Sky.

Yep. I forgot about him for the purposes of this thread. I saw him play with the Muffins a few times including once at Progday.

^ Sad, I loved him as King Lear. We watched this in English class in High School.



He was awesome in Conan, and what a voice.

This is not him as Darth Vader, but I feel like posting something tro lighten my somber mood. He is one of those actors that I felt some strange charismatic pull towards.
