Cramps frontman Lux Interior, who sadly died this week aged 62, had already experienced what his death might be like in 1987, when rumours that he had died of a heroin overdose prompted fans to send wreaths to his wife and bandmate Poison Ivy.
Shortly afterwards, Lux told the LA Times: "At first, I thought it was kind of funny, but then it started to give me a creepy feeling. We sell a lot of records, but somehow just hearing that you've sold so many records doesn't hit you quite as much as when a lot of people call you up and are obviously really broken up because you've died".
