I searched and did not find a thread related to either. On 4/18/2012, the worlds oldest teenager passed away after suffering a heart attack.
Here is a link to several articles paying homage to a great man

In other sad new, drummer and lead singer for The Band, Levon Helm also passed away this week.

I can still remember watching American Bandstand as a kid, then onto Bloopers and Practical Jokes and "The Pyramid"
I can also remember the first time I saw The Last Waltz. I thought what a great voice Levon had. I own the DVD and several of The Band's CD's. Both of these deaths make me quite sad.
Rather than make two separate threads, just thought I'd combine them into one.
