 	This is really sad, even if kind of inevitable. I owe the man a hug
from a UoE gig years ago where I caught him afterwards and couldn't think 
of anything to say, so he just went for the gesture instead. Lovely man 
and one of the great rock loonies to boot. There won't be another. I wish 
there was more one could do... Yours all,
