So I've been reading up on some rockstar deaths. I've narrowed down to Kurt Cobain of Nivana, or Bon Scott of AC/DC.What do you think? Both were rock legends of the 70's and 80's and were in two of the best bands of all time. What do you think?????????


I AM SO SORRY! I MADE A HUGE MISTAKE! :eek:
I am apologizing to everyone who read this earlier! I made a huge mistake and I was a total idiot you see earlier I ACCIDENTLY had Bon Scott and Brian Johnson of AC/DC confused and said that Brian was the one who has past away. I apologize to any AC/DC fan and I am extremely sorry!!!!!
i fur goin through hell, keep goin. :D

Worst rockstar death has got to be Dimebag's death. Long Live Dime!

how about the first guitarist from chicago. the guy was incredibly talented. i heard that he was showing a friend his new magnum and the friend said careful with that it might be loaded and the guy said "no it's not, look" and pointed it at his own head , pulled the trigger and blew his head off. this may only be a rumor so if any of you crispy old rockers ;) know the answer that is true inform me so i won't be spreading crap

I have to say,Dime died in a far cooler way than randy though.Its sucks either way,but I would rather be playing guitar than bracing for ultra whiplash and burn...

I agree, I would rather go out doing something I love but to be shot by a disgruntled fan is not a cool way to go no matter what you are doing.

Why not through John Lennon in the ring, or Jimmy Hendrix, or even Elvis.

Too many too soon. :(

June was the surprise there... not Johnny.

You can almost hear oxygen tanks in the background when you listen to The Man Comes Around.

i'd have to say that dimebag's was pretty horrible....a fan and a roadcrew member died along with dime and he was killed not of something he did but of some psychopath who came out of nowhere.


....and though courtney love is a psychopath and killed kurt, she didn't come out of nowhere and everyone knew she was a star****ing bitch.
okay...my post is done...goodbye.

hendrix and elvis were self-inflicted....John lennon was tragic, though and impacted the world when he died.

bon scott and kurt cobain both died prety terriable. Bon choked on his vomit, and kurt killed himself. Kinda hard to tell whats worse. I guess i would have to say Bon. Kurt knew he would kill himself.

both were great, and missed. RIP

As you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers
Ringing in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette

Im a huge Bon Scott fan, and his death definitely is the biggest to me. Brian Johnson had his share of good albums and songs, but Bon's image was awesome and the music in his era was even better.
