Just watching Spinal Tap on iplayer, not seen for decades.
Obviously all the drummers die.
Just googled the cast and the guy who played the drummer Mick Shrimpton, Ric Parnell, has just died
Spooky?
Edit: 'hello Cleveland!'

Great drummer for Atomic Rooster. His dad Jack Parnell was a great drummer and big band leader.

A guy I know who at the time worked at Leek Police Station told me on the Leek/Buxton Road there were numerous sightings of a chap wondering on the road side who’d died a number of years before on the same stretch of road.

Was he a drummer too? Seems he was contemplating something, could've been drumming  |

I was talking to a ghost for ages
Ritzy nightclub circa 2001
He said he had been dead for ages and his mates all ignored him and had forgotten about him . He tried to interact with them but they couldn’t see or hear him. He would turn up most weekends and at first his mates used to reminisce about him and wish he was still alive but gradually he said he slipped out if their conversation and that saddened him. He was so pleased to meet me as not everyone could see him. He was dressed in the fashion from 10-15 years ago.
I would walk off and get a beer or talk to a lady and he would appear in front of me as if from nowhere
The conversation eventually got quite deep
When I tell this story to people they generally don’t believe me as by my own admission id had 10-12 pints by that stage
But I know what I saw
I haven’t seen him before or since but his face and voice are as clear as day and I’m 100% he was a ghost

Out of interest, as one of my specialist subjects, do you have any idea why this entity was frequenting the night club, or what happened to him?

Bloke walks into a shop and says can I have 2 battered cod, a large chips and a pickle egg please.
The assistant says, " Are you a drummer, sir ?"
"Why yes' he says startled, "how did you know?"
"This is a chemist" was the reply
Drummer has two kids and names them Anna One, Anna Two.......I'll get my coat

Edit: 'hello Cleveland!' That's why they showed it on BBC Two the other night - in remembrance of RJ Parnell (the continuity announcer said as much before it started) 👍 |

Seems he was contemplating something, could've been drumming Nicely done! In a tragic reflection of life imitating art, Abba's drummer did genuinely die in a bizarre gardening accident. |

When I eventually woke the place was in complete darkness and eventually I’d fumbled around long enough to open a door and let myself out, alarms went off but I slowly trudged back to Milton. |

Seems he was contemplating something, could've been drumming  Nicely done! In a tragic reflection of life imitating art, Abba's drummer did genuinely die in a bizarre gardening accident. Porcaro died at Humana Hospital-West Hills on the evening of August 5, 1992, at the age of 38, after falling ill while spraying insecticide in the yard of his Hidden Hills home. The coroner ruled out an accident, and determined a heart attack due to occlusive coronary artery disease caused by atherosclerosis resulting from cocaine use.[11][12][13] However, a Los Angeles County Coroner spokesman (and some doctors who treated Porcaro) attributed the death to a heart attack caused by an allergic reaction to inhaled pesticide spray. Bandmate Steve Lukather claims that Porcaro had also been suffering from a long-standing heart condition and a smoking habit, both of which contributed to his death. That’s Jeff Porcaro. One ot the best, and most recorded drummers around. |
