Famous people who died young:

My all time favourite artist of all time ever is Buddy Holly.
I find it amazing how good his songwriting output was and he died in American Pie when he was 22.

Three times dude :)

I also went to see The Crickets in the 90s.
It was the worst advertising ever and only 20 people turned up who were all local musicians who had been in bands with each other.
They came on and were awful but after 3 songs got into their stride, when they finished they told us to go nowhere and they would come and talk to us.
It was at that point we realised the film, just like other biopics, had a lot of false information in it.
I still get a buzz that I sat there talking to 3 people who had been on a stage with Buddy.

King Tut:
His parents were brother & Sister.
Married at ten to his half - Sister.
( shared the same father).
No wonder he had a few problems.

So their Father was also their Father in Law.
(That must have been an interesting speech at the reception... welcoming them into the family & all that)
