Bon Jovi's first bassist Alec John Such dies at age 70: Bandmates pay tribute to 'wild' rock icon who was 'integral to the formation of the band'

• John Such was the rock band's bassist from 1983 to 1994
• No details on when or how he died were immediately available
• 'We are heartbroken to hear the news of the passing of our dear friend Alec John Such,' Jon Bon Jovi tweeted
• Bon Jovi credited John Such for bringing the band together
• He played on the band's first five albums, including Bon Jovi, 7800° Fahrenheit, Slippery When Wet, New Jersey and Keep the Faith
• He had played on the band's trademark hits such as Livin’ on a Prayer, Wanted Dead or Alive, You Give Love a Bad Name and I'll Be There for You

 

No age that, still bands do burn the candle from both ends at times I guess. RIP

Is this the same 'King Arthur' who had a shop down Midland Street in Hull near the legendary Monte Carlo Cafe ? He must well into is 80's now ?

 

To the Father and Son sidecar racers at the TT races and the other three riders who have died at this years event,
R.I.P.

 

As much as I like bikes, tinkering, riding, watching them I don't this can go on much longer. Every year families are losing sons, brothers, fathers, husbands to a sport which can be conducted more safely.
RIP

Sad news about Chris Coyle, father of the Coyles. Didn't know him personally but sat with him at two City away games last season and we chatted throughout the game and shook hands at the final whistle. Also knew him from the new Priory Sidings fruit market where he was always there loud and proud at the break of dawn. Big, big character who will leave a huge hole in the Coyle family and my condolences go out to them.

 

Was his hand as big as it looks from that photo when you shook it? RIP.
