Dec 8, 1980 - A day I will never forget!

[BStecke]

This is slightly before my time, but I was doing a bit of research on this event the other day. It got me thinking about the entertainment world we live in today, and if there was anybody whose murder/death would have even close to the same impact as Lennon's. Cobain's death was the last entertainer whose death I remember being seen as almost the death of an era . . . I really can't think of anybody today who is significant enough to cause near the same reaction.

Michael Jackson is probably a recent example,not sure if anyone would shed a tear if PSY shuffled off the mortal coil
