He added so much charisma and personality to so many of my favorite movies. It's hard to imagine any of them being as enjoyable without him.

That sucks. Wayne and the MC5 were so influential. The Clash even wrote a song about him going to prison.

Aston 'family man' Barret has passed, bassist for the Wailers in their most compelling period he was also crucial in developing rock steady basslines in the late 60's that led to reggae

My barber told me about Toby Keith yesterday and I used the Norm Macdonald line "I didn't even know he was sick", which ... well, I didn't know.

Then I saw photos of him in the last year, and it became quite evident that he was and had been for a while. Damn.

YouTube recommended an interview with him from a couple of weeks ago and from the thumbnail he looked awful. I wasn’t a fan but still, #### cancer.

Keith also discovered Taylor Swift when she was 15 and just moved to Nashville, and helped sign her to her first contract. While I didn't always agree with his politics or how he hated on the Dixie Chicks, I was always a fan of his music. He was always a larger than life personality and to see what cancer did to him at the end is heartbreaking. #### cancer

I listen to Mojo’s show on Outlaw Country driving home from work every day. I wasn’t a fan at first but he eventually grew on me… he went out pretty much exactly as you’d expect if you’ve ever listened to his show… RIP Mojo!

He sure did.



He did quite a bit of acting, mostly in B movies like Troma’s “Buttcrack”.
