We share the same sentiments. I didn't expect to be surprised by Arthur's death, but I was totally taken off-guard. I remember hearing on the news of Arthur Kane's death, but didn't equate it to "Killer" Kane until I watched this film. Felt VERY naive for a moment there . . .
David has NOT aged well. He did not look well to me . . . had the body of a very aged man . . . diminishing muscle and all skin in his arms, and I don't even want to talk about his facial features (Whew!).
In addition, Arthur's ex-wife, and several of the groupies/ other band members were looking . . . VERY used-up. That saddened me too. And to be truthful, I had to make a decision 25+ years ago to continue my interests in drumming/ music/ bands or go do church service. I don't regret making the decision to take my life in a direction away from the music world . . . though I AM stuck in the 80's musically! LOL (Good thing my kids enjoy it now . . . even if my wife is a ska and emo, current punk, groupie)!! I still enjoy PIL, Sex Pistols, and NY Dolls, but . . . GC5, Onesidezero, Lagwagon, Mi6, and Propaghandi??? Give me the originals over these remake, rebakes, . . and for heaven's sake, can we move OUT of the 70's grunge dress once and for-all??!?!? Time to take a stinkin' shower, and change the clothes! (I MUST be getting old!!!) LOL
Dave
