Charlie died when the music stopped. It's easy one.

Was Charlie on an iron lung, or some sort of breathing apparatus?

"Charlie" was the name of a guitar owned by one of those crappy 80's hair bands, and after the music stopped, the owner smashed the guitar against an amp

Charlie was somebody's pet hamster and had the misfortune of being in the wrong place during a game of musical chairs.

Looks like a Les Paul he is smashing -- a pitty to treat such a nice guitar that way.

Ahh, wow, now that you mention that...that's sad. That band, whoever they are, they don't look talented enough to destroy a Les Paul. Let's hope it was an Epiphone.

Appears to be a Sunbrust Les Paul. I would also guess so since I see a Strat and either a Gretsch or a Guild hollow body in the background -- no cheap guitars there.

So how on Earth is an insect the answer? I'd go with BNC, Charlie was a blinded tightrope walker, the music to signal he was at the end stopped to early and he stepped off and fell to his death.

The insect thing works in the sense that it's a pet insect of some sort and was on one of the chairs when the music stopped(google)

Has anyone seen the Clint Eastwood western, "For a Few Dollars More" ? The murderous gunslinger carries a combo pocket watch/music box. When he has a duel, he starts the music box and the rules are that they start shooting when the music stops. Charlie must be the loser of one of those duels

Charlie could also have commited suicide but, the sentimental guy that he is, was playing music in the background and the bullet ended up lodged inside the stereo or whatever it was they was playing the music, thus stopping the music.
