I saw them at the barrowlands, and managed to get in and meet them during the soundcheck. The whole band were really nice, but Pete stood out as a really good bloke with a dry sense of humour. I even got a shout out during the gig. RIP

Rest In Peace John Lennon - 38 years ago today 
Rest In Peace John Lennon - 38 years ago today
...38 years ago is frightening, I remember that day being in Huyton Leisure Centre having a pint with a few pals after footy.
I went to NY a few years ago and visited the spot. So sad, so senseless, such a waste.
I was on a break at work when I heard the news. Just remember having this weird surreal feeling, very odd. The time has just marched by, and it's hard to think he'd be almost 80 now. Such a sad loss.

Word processor pioneer Evelyn Berezin dies aged 93
Image copyrightEYEVINE/NEW YORK TIMESImage captionEvelyn Berezin said her word processor would help secretaries become more efficient at their jobs
The woman who created and sold what many recognise as the world's first word processor has died aged 93.
Evelyn Berezin called the device the Data Secretary when, in 1971, her company Redactron launched the product.
She grew Redactron from nine employees to close to 500 and was named one of the US's top leaders by BusinessWeek magazine in the year she sold it, 1976.
She had earlier built one of the original computerised airline reservation systems.

I thought he'd changed his name to Gravy Boat.
RIP Nancy Wilson. She was crisp, clear, and lovely - just like her singing.

Going back to my list I created in March, one less to choose from though...
Suppose Billy Connolly must be moving up the list with his health issues and there are a plethora of 70s/80's rock/pop stars that have taken more drugs than the GlaxoSmithKline tablet sorter conveyor belt heading into later life where you get problems anyhow.
..hate to be a spoil sport, but I don’t think it’s very nice to predict somebody’s death. This is a thread to inform and comment on the actual demise of individuals.
....aaaaannnd Eggs just killed the thread.
