Sucks. Great player and seemed like a cool dude. His work with ABB and Great Southern always kicked ass.

A legend. Shocked there’s not more chatter about this. One of my all-time favourites.

He’s Frank Hannon’s father-in-law and Frank revered and respected him. I know he’s gutted.

He was not a cool dude. He was a hot tempered asshole with a raging case of little man's syndrome. He was a terror to be in a band with.
