I went to Junior High and High School with his son, also named Doug Ingle and, for a time, he was our drummer after the one we had killed himself (one of FOUR drummers that have died from the very few bands I was in! Can you say Spinal Tap???). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane_B. Posted August 31, 2021 Author Share Posted August 31, 2021 That's pretty cool! I've only known one musician that killed himself. BTW ... Sweet Sweet Connie just passed away also from the Grand Funk song. So did the original bass player for Bill Haley and the Comets. Connie was only 66 but Bushy and the Haley bass player were pretty well up there. Still sad. It feels like history is being wiped away. Today it is not like it was going from the 50's to the 60's, 60's to the 70's, and 70's to the 80's. Pretty much after the mid 80's it's been completely down hill in my opinion with a few exceptions. The creation of music changed in the late 70's and the whole digital thing was still new in the early 80's. It hasn't mutated very well in my opinion.
