2010 was a very impressive year in music. Unfortunately, there were also several devastating losses and unfortunate happenings. Let's take a moment to look back over the past year to remember some of the great musicians our world lost, and recap those in the industry who earned (or maintained) jailbird status.
Gone but not forgotten:
Teddy Pendergrass (1950-2010)
Gregory Isaacs (1962-2010)
Solomon Burke (1940 - 2010)
Ronnie James Dio (1942-2010)
Jay Reatard (1980-2010)
Captain Beefheart (1941-2010)
Paul Gray (1972-2010)
Peter Steele (1962-2010)
2010 Jailbirds:
Willie Nelson - Marijuana -- Again
Too $hort - Three accounts battery
Vince Neil - Drunken Driving/Speeding
George Michael - Driving under the influence... Into a FU%$ING building!
Faith Evans - Drunken Driving
Kid Cudi - Criminal mischief and possession of a controlled substance
Sebastian Bach - Assault, possession of marijuana and mischief
May all who left us Rest In Peace, and all who didn't make Santa's "nice" list learn a lesson for next year... (Except for Willie... For the love of God, leave Willie alone!)
