Weird Celebrity Death: Sid Vicious

By Midnight Man, in Celebrity,

Weird Celebrity Death: Sid Vicious
Sid Vicious was an English bass guitarist and vocalist, most famous as a member of the influential punk group the Sex Pistols, and notorious for his arrest for the murder of girlfriend Nancy Spungen, he awoke in his Chelsea Hotel room to find her dead from a knife wound. Vicious would alternately claim tearful responsibility for her murder, that he had no recollection of the night and that they had made a suicide pact. Many believe that Spungen, a heroin addict who was desperately hunting that night for a drug fix, may have been killed by a drug deal gone wrong and that Vicious may have been unconscious during the murder. Vicious died of a drug overdose less than four months later, leading some to speculate that the dealer who stabbed Spungen supplied Vicious with enough drugs to be sure he never did get his story straight. He died February 2, 1979 at the age of 21.

Weird Celebrity Death: Keith Moon
Keith Moon was an English musician best known as the drummer of the English rock group the Who. Who had a grimly ironic death, he overdosed on Clomethiazole pills that were prescribed to help him combat his alcoholism and in a macabre coincidence, the apartment where Moon died was the same one in which singer Mama Cass Elliot of the rock group The Mamas & the Papas had succumbed four years prior. If there were ever a good reason for a rock band to trash a hotel room, this sounds like it. He died September 7, 1978 at the age of 32.
