As Patton Oswalt put it in the tweet from which I got the news, the Biz sleeps. Which is to say that Marcel Theo Hall, whom you might have known better as the diabolical Biz Markie ("Just a Friend"), is gone at 57 from diabetic complications.

though this news does explain why I've been hearing so much ZZ Top on the radio (I've been enjoying it, but it was noticibly more often)

He was also a major architect of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, so it wouldn't be unreasonable to call him one of the Fathers of Confederation.

i heard this as a commentary from Rick Springfield on his "Working Class DJ" show on Sirius XM. Followed by the comment about how Keith Moon had outlived a good number of the other stones and how it surprised them. My thought about that was that of course Moon is still around, the man has pickled himself so much that he's going to exist until the world burns to cinders at which point he'll burst into flame because of the alcohol in his body. the second thought i had was the old joke about Moon still existing because he was the conduit for the group to sell their souls, and will only die after the rest because then the souls can be acquired together.

Did Rick say "Keith Moon", or is that just the way you remembered it? Because whoever said it, they were thinking of Keith Richards. Keith Moon (a) was the drummer for The Who; (b) has been dead for a while now.
