Founding member of ELO killed by...a bale of hay

700 lb. hay bale.

That's got to be A New World Record.

 

Heard that Elvin Bishop had just got up from sitting on that bale of hay before it rolled.

 

Or coincidental since Schimmel died recently too and he also survived cancer to die in an accident.

 

He ain't good lookin' but he sure can play.

 

You hold on tight to your dreams, and it comes to nothing.

 

Guess he shouldn't have gone searching on a one-way street

 

Here's hoping Schimmel's Make-a-Wish request came true.

 

He should have taken a dive (out of the car).

 

Being straw burried is a tough way to go.

 

I just hope he was sble to flip off the RR HOF one last time before being buried.

I would have thought he would have died im a midair explosion... a fire on high

 

Growing up on a farm, I've moved literally tens of thousands of hay and straw bales in my life with tractors and pickup trucks and I've never heard of an accident like this.
