Mitch Mitchell

Holy crap, seriously...

2008 is just not a good year to be a celebrity. George Carlin, Bernie Mac, ALMOST Travis Barker, and now, the last surviving member of The Jimi Hindrix Experience, Mitch Mitchell, drummer. From Yahoo:

Mitch Mitchell, drummer for the legendary Jimi Hendrix Experience of the 1960s and the group's last surviving member, was found dead in his hotel room early Wednesday. He was 61.

Mitchell was a powerful force on the Hendrix band's 1967 debut album "Are You Experienced?" as well as the trio's albums "Electric Ladyland" and "Axis: Bold As Love." He had an explosive drumming style that can be heard in hard-charging songs such as "Fire" and "Manic Depression."

The Englishman had been drumming for the Experience Hendrix Tour, which performed Friday in Portland. It was the last stop on the West Coast part of the tour.

Hendrix died in 1970. Bass player Noel Redding died in 2003.

An employee at Portland's Benson Hotel called police after discovering Mitchell's body.

Erin Patrick, a deputy medical examiner, said Mitchell apparently died of natural causes. An autopsy was planned.

*sniff*

And now everyone on the Guitar Hero forums wants free World Tour DLC. Soulless freaks...

I personally find it odd that he died exactly one day before the Jimi Hindrix DLC pack was released for World Tour, kinda weird..

Wow, that's sad. I was just reading about him the other day.

Well, at lease he'll be playing the great gig in the sky with Jimi and Noel pretty soon.

I guess it hasn't been a good decade either. We lost Don Knotts, Waylon Gennings, Charleston Heston.... almost lost Eddie Van Halen (a rumor that had to do with the reunion tour).

Why can't we just get rid of Hilton, Lohan, and Spears and save the ones with real talent? where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

I believe that's called 'spreading the wealth'. Get used to the soulless freaks running the show.

Was that a political comment?

Hey, when Travis Barker was in critical condition, everyone wanted him to die so that we'd get free Blink-182 DLC, ugh..
