    Choked on something else ;-)

    I'm liberal as the next man and I always think you should try and see the funny side of everything but that's absolutely pathetic.

    Haven't heard humour that unintelligent since primary school.

    This isn't the thread for jokes. Try the Lolocaust.

    Funny how people get wound up by these things. Seriously its not like he was a musical prodigy or genius. Fair play he was a cute popstart but this is the AFter Hours Forum if a genuine Music legend died the thread would be moved to the Music Forums, ie when Darren Sutherland died his thread was moved to the Boxing forum.

    Can't believe he was only 33, he seems to have been around forever. Always seemed like a genuinely nice guy in the media. :(

    Like a lot of other girls, it broke my heart when he came out as gay. Loved Boyzone back in the day and am so glad I got to see them at the Meteors in '08. Released a bit of the inner child in me so it did...

    RIP Stephen :(

    I think you should have had an inkling.

    I know...the clue was in the name and all.:(
    The band started when I was 4 and broke up when I was 10 so I wasn't going to know, I just about understood what gay was!

    statements by the family read out on sky news there say its not drugs, not suicide but a tragic accident..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,181 ✭✭✭Iang87

    RIP

    An accident? I wonder if that means alcohol or an orange.

    WTF?

    not a fan of boyzone at all, but i respect that thousands of others did and his music made them happy.

    RIP

    By saying it was a tragic accident must mean there was some unitentional external action invloved which led to the death.
    I mean you dont go to bed and accidentally not wake up.
    So i would imagine there is more to it.

    Stop speculating and let the guy REST IN PEACE. He's only dead a couple of days and already people are writing the f**king post mortem report!!

    Give it a f***ing rest.

    :mad:

    Never a fan of either Stephen or the band but to see a young lad die at 33 yrs is terrible. He had a bright future and seemed a good person. RIP.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 985 ✭✭✭APM


    Seemed like a sound bloke, sad loss

    RIP

    Believe it or not, people of all ages do "go to bed and accidentally not wake up".
    Many things may have happened - and Im sure by the middle of the week, it will become more apparent what has happened. Perhaps you can wait until then before entering into more idle and unfounded speculation?

    Alcohol poisoning can happen and people choking on their own vomit can happen.
    I had a friend of mine die from choking on his own vomit in his early twenties. It's a tragic end but it happens more regularly than people believe.
    I had no time for Boyzone's yelping but this is tragic for the guys partner and his family.
