just watching the titanic is enough to make one kill oneself, let alone competing against it.
on a side note, i think elliott was killed, i don't think he committed suicide.

i had to give away my ticket to a show in 2001 cuz i had a spanish final.. doh!

Didnt he supposedly stab himself to death? One wonders what sort of mindset you'd have to be in to drive a knife far enough into you to kill yourself.

(Aug 17 05, 16:09)yeah, it seems a bit fuzzy, doesn't it? Can you imagine stabbing yourself in the chest? And his druggy girlfriend was home at the time too.
My nanny at the time was a friend of his - and was heart-broken.

I bet that chick played so many mind games with him that he would rather drive a knife thru his chest than play another...
I could see that happening, now that I think about it...

On a side note, the lead singer of 'School of Fish' also passed away.

also my first cat mr.pussington passed away that month. fyi.
- CyBrainX0
mr.pussington is about the best possible name for a cat ever.
- currey0
he liked it as well. thank you.
- prodigalslacker0
such an amazing performer
- CincodeMayo0
Yeah, Mr. Pussington will always be remembered as a great performer.
As for Elliott, apparently he was stabbed twice in the chest. But apparently after most people stab themself once, it's almost impossible to do it again.
Still said to be a suicide, but you gotta wonder. Where the conspirists at?
- cre2done0
listen to any of his songs and it's hard not to imagine him killing himself.
Hunter S Thompson's family was home when he offed himself... the girl being there might not make too much difference.

Elliot was a genius.

thanks for the link, I haddn't seen that performance before. I have heard Elliott say of Celine Dion that she was very nice to him back stage and calmed his nerves before that performace... Tho he doesn't care for her music.

Meet him at a sandwich shop in Philadelphia, he got me in the show that night for free and came up stairs to a tiny bar right after his set to drink with us. He called everytime he
came to town since- always got me in, and always had a drink with me.Eillott was a great guy, not as quiet as you would think, and had plenty of laughs and smiles.
He will be missed.
