Rest in peace. One of the cool things about Floyd and its members, if you were to have a "Floyd Marathon" it would take several weeks or longer to really process it all.
Try that with 'Blink 182' or some of this rap bullshit. You'll be bored out of your mind within a matter of minutes. Pre-recorded beats and lyrics made of bullshit.
So what you're saying then is that the majority of modern rap and rock is bullshit... :)

Former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and disc jockey Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein were in critical condition with extensive burns Saturday after a jet crash that killed four people, authorities said.

I'll be honest, I've never heard of Travis Barker because I don't listen to 'Blink 182', watch reality TV shows or 'P-Diddy videos, nor care who has previously dated Paris Hilton. But according to his wiki page, he died today. Yet, he's not really dead.

Quite premature to compare this guy to such greats as Buddy Holly and Richie Valens, which some news agencies are doing. I pretty much stop listening when Lindsay Lohan sends her sympathies, guy surely doesn't need mine too...
Guy's got a second lease on life now, hopefully he'll do something with it besides getting new tattoos, buying more drum sets, and dating porn stars.
