Honestly can't get over the reactions to this mans death. I've already given my thoughts in the thread on the Glastonbury forum, but the fact that people are acting like some vital cornerstone of society has died a noble death is gobsmacking. He was a f**king div, that just so happened to corner a sub culture of teenage "skater" types who thought getting naked and doing stupid shit was hilarrriousss. He gets pissed and decides to drive his car at 110mph killing not only himself, but his mate, boo hoo, poor ryan... f**k off. Sad when anyone loses their life, but people die all the time, and because this c**t had a beer enema or something, he's a "legend"... nah.

ironically this was my favourite thing which he did, really wanted to do the gumball when I saw it.. anyway regardless of the circumstances its pretty upsetting when someone from your generation goes when you still feel, well pretty young R.I.P :(

Well that was a quick turnaround in the toxicology report

http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1666262/ryan-dunn-intoxicated-death.jhtml

Apparently he was intoxicated, twice the legal limit. Such a waste.

An idiotic way to die, and could have endangered so many more lives. Hopefully it will serve as a reminder to the dangers of drink driving. My thoughts go out to the family and friends of the passenger and Ryan Dunn.

This is something that scares me though - could I do something as insane as that if I was utterly wasted? I've done things while completely f**ked that seem too bizarre for me to ever do, and uncharacteristic and it all happens in a dream-like funk it makes me wonder if you get to a point where a mere thought is all you need, just like in some mad dreams where your subconscious feeds you some of the dumbest shit which you don't question at the time, until after you wake up.

It's easy to judge but alcohol/drugs make you do really, REALLY stupid shit if you do enough of it. No excuse like, as there's always a point where you can prevent going over that line, but I think because that line is very easy to misjudge it's always quite tragic to hear about instances like this where it ends in tears.

RIP.

    • Audrey Hobert getting a lot of traction lately and new single on Friday. Wonder if she could be round next summer.
    • Think Pulp are optimistic, not in terms of size but just that they've been on the road (albeit not intensively) for 3 years in a row and it feels like EotR is the deliberate end of the cycle.   Would be fairly surprised if they're active next year.
    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
