By the way, I found a couple of eerie coincidences between Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley's deaths



Both of them were the frontmen for the 2 biggest "Grunge" bands

Both of them were Born in 1967 in Washington

Both of them Died on the 5th of April in Seattle, Washington

Both of their bodies weren't discovered until days after their death



Unfortunately, Layne Staley wasn't found until 14 days after he died, and apparently his body was bloated and decomposed  :-\\

I should probably correct myself.  Michael Hutchence death isn't exactly clear.  The long going rumor (And probable cause) is that he died from Suffucation while Masturbating, also known as "Erotic asphyxiation"

They obviously ruled it a suicide to avoid embarrassment for his family.  So the odds are that his death was an accident, and thousands of men die from "Erotic asphyxiation" each year (Although I don't know why anyone would be so stupid to even attempt it)

I had heard about Mike's death on the radio at the time it occurred (due to the large time difference between Australia and Los Angeles, I heard about it on the evening of November 21st), and the person on the radio said that the cause of death was unclear. All I remember is that Mike was "found dead in his hotel room." Still, it was a shocker. :\'(

Actually, I think he died in the 2000's. I'm not a hundred percent sure.

But they had some big hits in the 90s, didn't they?

Paul Hester committed Suicide.

Marc Hunter of Dragon died a few years ago of Cancer, I just dont think they had any hits in the 1990's.

One of the singers of Mel and Kim also died of cancer in 1990.


David Robinson of Australian Crawl also passed away aged 37 from Cancer.
