Enty: Didn't you run this blind two weeks ago? The day Eric Clapton's pic in the wheelchair ran? Just askin'.

Eric Clapton doesn't have cancer. Take him off your list. He has Peripheral Neuropathy. He's complained his hands do not work like they used to and he's had back pain for years. Not cancer. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/music/news/the-disease-that-could-end-eric-claptons-career-why-musicians-fe/

My heart's going to break when Neil Young dies.

DUH said...

lmfao he's clever as ever

Frank said...

He just had pneumonia and cancelled his tour. English stiff upper lip leads me to believe he wouldn't announce he has "cancer ", especially if he has cancer.

Too many fields said...

Morissey?

Bookjacket said...

Hmmm. Enty ran this exact item 11 or 12 months before Bowie died.

Do Tell said...

Bill Wyman was diagnosed with prostate cancer last year, but had a good prognosis at that time.

Moodykitty said...

Beatles would be A++ wouldnt they?

Laura Palmer said...

don't even...no no no!

Layla said...

EC didn't cancel his tour. He canceled one date in L.A. due to bronchitis. He has three shows coming up in May in London and then back to NYC and LA in September for a few more shows. It wasn't a tour per se. And he wouldn't be scheduling concert dates in September if he was dying from cancer. Just sayin.

looking closely said...

Having neuropathy doesn't preclude ALSO having cancer. In fact since certain cancer-treating drugs CAUSE peripheral neuropathy, the two could even potentially be related.

One would think that if Clapton had cancer so advanced his life expectancy were less than a year he'd probably be visibly ill and not scheduling concert dates 6+ months from now. Again being Devil's advocate, Clapton really is from that old "keep a stiff upper lip" and never talk about bad stuff English school.

I don't actually believe this blind, but as food for thought, David Bowie was working really right up until his death from liver cancer last year, and he even managed to hide it from many of his professional colleagues. Lemmy from Motorhead was so tough he worked until literally the very end, supposedly not being diagnosed with terminal cancer until two days before his death in 2015!
