John Entwistle 

October 9, 1944- June 27, 2002.

Bass guitar player for the Who, one of the most recognized and adored bands in the world. Also a member of Ox, a band that is relatively unknown, but quite excellent, none the less.

Famous for his "Thunder Fingers", and the fact that he never moved, or even smiled, while playing. (Some speculate that he was attempting to blend into the background, so he would not be mauled by his violent, and often blocked up, band mates).

Either way, he is considered one of the greatest bass players in rock n' roll, and has one of the most obscenely high singing voices ever possessed by a non-castrati.
It's spelt John EntWISTLE, not John EntWHISTLE!

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
