Yes, a tragedy. See the Bo Diddley Died Today thread...

Yep, I just heard on the news what his origional name was. Don't blame him a bit for changing it.

He did good music, but was too arrogant as a person to suit me.
Of course what can I say, I love AC/DC's music but think the people in the band suck.

BTW some people think his given name was McDaniel:

And some think McDaniel was an alias...

It was indeed Ellas Otha Bates. I hope his rebirth is as amazing as this past was...

No Moshing for me. I had to look that up btw.
I don't even like concerts. As I said I just like their music and think they suck as persons.


You go Mosh over Carlos Ray Norris.
