I know he was old, but he survived everything, and then gets diagnosed with cancer and dies 2 days later. His body could take anything and he survived everything except for the cancer. He was still performing like he was a young guy, its not like he couldn't do it anymore and was retired from music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shit this guy put his body through over the years, the man should have been dead 10+ years ago. Lol. Truly one of a kind. Legend of legends.
