RIP SYD

[Andrew Fergus Wilson]

A really sad day. Syd was... well, he was Syd. He made some magical,
timeless pop music before succumbing to the most dangerous rides in the
fairground. I can only hope he didn't suffer too much. No matter what his
recent life may have been like the world is a poorer place without him. A
few acquaintances and I have wished him a safe journey into the arms of the
full moon... we can but hope he went with the knowledge of the love and
esteem that people felt for him.
