I heard this on the six pm news and i couldn't believe it in the headlines. He'd apparently only played a gig in support of the firefighters a few weeks ago.
I was more in shock than anything else - he was only 50, younger than my mum
My thoughts are with his family cos it must be awful to lose him soo near to xmas

I also got quite a shock when I found out. He was a dude. And it's a great loss to the musical world.
