Mike Grose (original base player for the band) died 3 days ago.

Like me, did you also fall for the tabloid/clickbait headline?

Nothing - it's the way the headline was written to make people think one of the 3 main line up members had dies.

Just cos he’s not one of the originals doesn’t mean he wasn’t important or doesn’t take away the fact he was a Queen member.

I have no idea who this man was. I’d never heard his name until I’d clicked on this thread.
