I am definitely not having a great year when it comes to celebrity/musician/actor deaths this year. Well, 2009 wasn’t really a walk in the park wither since we lost actresses Natasha Richardson, Brittany Murphy and Farah Fawcett, actor Patrick Swayze, pop legend Michael Jackson and more. 2010 wasn’t too bright either as actors Dennis Hopper and Tony Curtis (father of actress Jamie Lee Curtis) died this year. In the music world, Poison singer Bret Michaels was having a the most terrible year with his health, Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler was falling on the stage, maybe signaling that he has in fact gotten too old for his wild and hyperactive stage theatrics. Oh, and DIO singer Ronnie James Dio died!
I might be two days late, but just found out rock/heavy metal band Gotthard’s singer Steve Lee died. Lee died in a motorcycle accident, at the age of 47. And if you ask me, 47 is a pretty young age to die, even by rock n roll standards.
Rest in Peace, Steve Lee. The song video is of the song The Call, from the band’s 2007 album Domino Effect.
