Some by way of their concerts some by way of cd's or posters. These rockers belong to the ages now and are performing concerts on the other side.<br /> With every passing year come awesome albums and badass concerts. But there also inevitably comes the crushing news that more of our rock-and-roll heroes have shed this mortal coil. In 2011, we bid farewell to current and former members of Motörhead, Alice in Chains, Manowar, Gwar, and others. </p> <p>Gary Moore<br /> Thin Lizzy<br /> Died February 6<br /> Guitarist for Irish rockers Thin Lizzy during several periods, Moore is more renowned and revered as a solo blues axman, whose playing reverberates in the six-string work of everyone from Slash to Opeth’s Mikael Åkerfeldt. Metallica’s Kirk Hammett even cites him as one of his top five guitar influences, pointing to the solo in “Master of Puppets” and riffs he wrote for “The Unforgiven” as being inspired by Moore.</p> <p>Phil Vane<br /> Extreme Noise Terror<br /> Died February 23<br /> Vane made his name as the absolutely ferocious vocalist of pioneering UK crust-punk outfit Extreme Noise Terror, with whom he helped spearhead the late-’80s grindcore movement. He even briefly fronted grindcore originators Napalm Death, switching places with singer Barney Greenway, who appeared on ENT’s Damage 381 before returning to NP.</p> <p>Mike Starr<br /> Alice in Chains<br /> Died March 8<br /> The original bassist of Alice in Chains, Starr’s tense, throbbing bass lines underpinned classic grunge-metal albums like Facelift and Dirt. After splitting with the band while it was touring in support of the latter album, Starr formed supergroup Sun Red Sun alongside former Black Sabbath members Ray Gillen and Bobby Rondinelli, and later toured with Days of the New.</p> <p>Scott Columbus<br /> Manowar<br /> Died April 4<br /> Columbus was the longtime drummer of battle-metal barbarians Manowar, and his playing style was fittingly brutish: The skinsman pounded what he called the “Drums of Doom,” a kit made of stainless steel because his hit so hard that when he used standard kits, they had to be replaced too regularly.</p> <p>Seth Putnam<br /> Anal Cunt<br /> Died June 11<br /> The sick genius/retard behind Anal Cunt and grindcore micro-blasterpieces including “Women: Nature’s Punching Bag” and “Body by Auschwitz,” Putnam was extreme metal’s shock-rock provocateur bar none. He also famously feuded with Cannibal Corpse/Six Feet Under vocalist Chris Barnes (culminating in the AC tune “Chris Barnes is a Pussy”) and provided backing screams to songs on Pantera’s The Great Southern Trendkill.</p> <p>Michael “Würzel” Burston<br /> Motörhead<br /> Died July 9<br /> Guitarist for the mighty Motörhead from 1984 to 1995, Würzel laid down the licks on rumbling punk-metal landmarks like Orgasmatron and Rock ‘n’ Roll. He got his nickname while in the army, but Lemmy gave him the umlaut. At the time of his death, he was working on an album with his new band, Leader of Down.</p> <p>Jani Lane<br /> Warrant<br /> Died August 11<br /> One of the great frontmen of ’80s glam metal, Lane will probably be best remembered for the song and video, “Cherry Pie,” if not for bedding and wedding the clip’s smokin’ starlet, Bobbi Brown. In more recent years, the vocalist had gone solo, appeared on VH1′s Celebrity Fit Club 2, and toured with Great White.</p> <p>Cory “Flattus Maximus” Smoot<br /> Gwar<br /> Died November 2<br /> Adopting the role of Gwar’s red-faced, white-dreadlocked, dinosaur-shoulder-padded alien guitarist, Flattus Maximus, in 2002, Smoot was considered by fans as the “True Flattus” since he was the longest serving axman to play the character. He was also a major songwriter on the four Gwar albums he played on. After his death, bandleader Oderus Urungus announced that the character Flattus Maximus would be retired. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/rip-forum-rock-in-peace/rip-jani-lane#post-37882 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 21:09:23 +0000 RcksAngl 37882@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Very Well Said Spanx!!! It's still hard to believe he's gone,Can't listen to "Stronger Now" or "Let It Rain" without crying,I thought I could but tried listening to "Stronger Now" the other day and started to cry!! R.I.P. Jani you are Greatly missed. <img src='http://glamrock.com/forum/bb-images/smilies/icon_cry.gif' alt=':cry:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/rip-forum-rock-in-peace/rip-jani-lane#post-37852 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 16:22:04 +0000 Spanx 37852@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Jani had his issues, but didn't we all. He and i got into arguments a few times, like him not remembering that they cut a tape doing the time warp. Jani was always one with a bigger than life personality though. If any of you had the chance to see the band in concert BIT Day, you are aware of this, as he completely ruled the stage when he was on it. What many don't realize is what a nice guy he really was. some of the very best interviews done with Jani were during his time with Saints of the Underground. His writing mate Keri Kelli and himself created some very great *i would say glamtastic* songs together. They did a considerable amount of writing for bands such as Alice Cooper. The band Warrant dedicated their most recent show after Jani's death to him. i found this to be rather offensive personally as the band and Jani did not seem to see eye to eye on many things, and even after Jani left Warrant the last time, the band assured various casinos that they played at that yes, Jani was performing with them. So shame on you warrant for using the death of Jani to try and make yourselves look better.</p> <p>Spanky Bound </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/rip-forum-rock-in-peace/rip-jani-lane#post-37408 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 01:26:18 +0000 Dash 37408@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>he looked fine on TMS to me. he actually seemed like he was getting shit straight. it was hard to watch that episode cuz he seemed so sober and like it was all good. i wish they gave him more time to speak tho.that episode was definately hard for me to watch </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/rip-forum-rock-in-peace/rip-jani-lane#post-37329 Mon, 15 Aug 2011 05:30:46 +0000 Da_ 37329@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>I have desided that my guitar I am building at the moment is going to be named Jani after Jani Lane.

It was awful :'(</p> <p>The awesome thing is, He came over to me! I would never go over to someone that is in that state and be like "Dude, Can I have you autograph!?" I'm not a d*ck like that!</p> <p>I just heard this sweet little welsh voice whisper "Love Bomb Baby Dude", I looked behind, and there he was, we chatted for over 4 hours! he was a great man!</p> <p>When I said I had to leave, he signed my Tee Shirt, got his wife to go down to his house and get a signed copy of Bezerk for me and some of his picks, I loved this!</p> <p>The sad thing is, when I actually went out the door, he said "Hey Dude, come back here every day! please, I need someone right now!" with a big smile on his face.<br /> I visited him every day, the forth day I went to his room, rather than seeing him lying there in his bed, I saw some flowers.</p> <p>That was one of the most awful moments of my life </p> <p>R.I.P. Pepsi </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/rip-forum-rock-in-peace/eric-carr-1#post-36314 Tue, 22 Mar 2011 05:22:20 +0000 Shadow_of_A_Doubt 36314@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>I saw him on the Kiss Hot in the Shade tour. He was brillant. </p> <p>I feel there is one important little fact that hasn't been mentioned here.........Gene and Paul fired Eric on his death bed to help lower their Insurance costs. Eric was an employee of the KISS corp. , who were actively shopping for a new insurance company, so to defray those costs, they canned Eric. Eric was heartbroken at having been replaced, seeing that all he ever wanted was to be the drummer in KISS. Because of this Gene and Paul were denied access to Eric for the last several weeks of his life, and Eric Carr, by all accounts a sweet, caring, kind soul, died devastated at having been fired.</p> <p>Kiss as a band are very talented people, but the talent stops with Gene and Pauls assholeness. At least to me. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/rip-forum-rock-in-peace/rip-mike-starr#post-36136 Sat, 12 Mar 2011 22:03:02 +0000 metalrulesall 36136@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>i guess him and layne can be freinds again in rock styar heaven </p>
