I read he died like this:
-
- After performing at the City Auditorium in Houston, late in the evening, Ace, by that time very drunk, fired a .22 calibre revolver at his girlfriend, Olivia Gibbs. He then fired at her terrified friend Mary Carter, but on both occaisions the gun failed to go off. Ace promtly aimed the revolver at himself, and at a third squeeze of the trigger, a violent close-quarters explosion ended his life.
A subsequent inquest ruled that Johnny Ace had died playing Russian Roulette.
If no one puts up any proof to the contrary in the next 48 hours, I'm putting this on the article. Sergeant snopake 17:46 23/03/06
Um, amused himself with a game of Russian Roulette? Not the way I heard it, and what's more, that just sounds weird, as if he was 'playing God', and had his own personal game of Russian Roulette going. He tried to kill his girlfriend and her friend. That's no game. The inquest ruled roulette, that's not what happend. Sergeant Snopake 22:31, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Suicide?
If Ace was indeed playing "Russian roulette" - although thoroughly stupid & irresponsible - can it really be considered a suicide? Michael David 02:45, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Lost Song?
Did no matter who intend to speak about a way marked “Alice was a man”? I found some papers in my attic of grandmothers that the other day one of them was an insertion for a small vinyl disc. Unfortunately the disc itself was absent. I would be interested to find this way, as the name resounds really strange for the EC of the artists other types of music.
