Dammit, this one hurts. Today, it was announced that Gary 'Mani' Mounfield, original bassist for The Stone Roses and later Primal Scream, has died. He was 63.
For my fellow Britpop/Madchester fans, the Roses were as good as it got. Their self-titled debut is considered one of the greatest debut albums in British Music history. Hell, it's one of the greatest British albums period -- debut or otherwise. It's simply perfect from start-to-finish.
RIP, Mani.

I hope you’re right and he drops dead tonight. I just don’t think we’re gonna get that lucky and get bailed out like that. He’s got access to the best medical care in the world. If he can breathe, he will serve out this term even if Miller and the rest of the ghouls do it Weekend at Bernie’s style. If he’s still alive in 2028, he will be on the “ballot.”
I’m convinced they stole the last election in November. What makes you think they won’t do it again to seize complete power? All they have to do is preserve majorities in House and Senate and the USA as we know is O-V-E-R.
That’s not the only thing Bessent is blowing — let’s be honest.
Not surprised they took that one off the board at the end. That was a wild last 5 mins or so. Bad (but not intentional IMO) hit by Rantanen on the Isles’ player in the final minute. My guess is that Romanov broke his arm or wrist.
I wouldn't be surprised if this was discussed yesterday as it appears Ken Klippenstein posted it yesterday. If not, prepare to be disappointed. The word "unclassified" is going to stop all but the most mundane shit from getting released.
