This is a bit niche, but professional wrestler Jay Briscoe died in car crash yesterday. The Briscoe's tag team match with FTR last year is widely considered the best match of the year. He was 38. Another car crossed the centre line and wiped out his pickup. Wear your fucking seatbelts folks.

I haven’t followed wrestling for about 25 years or so, since the steroid scandal broke there just hasn’t been the ridiculous behemoths to keep it interesting enough. This guys name has popped up on numerous FB groups I’m in.
RIP, he had some moves

Made for a great sample too:
1st release from our debut album. An original piece that uses a replayed vocal of David Crosby's 'Orleans'. Drums recorded live at Toerag studios. Also featuring a 17 piece orchestra recorded at Air Studios, London. Many thanks to David Crosby for giving us permission to rework the vocal sample. The original track 'Orleans' comes from his album 'If Only I Could Remember My Name'.

Stevie is a fat bugger in that. Mind you, he probably doesn’t realise it. So we’re cool with it.
