Well with three original members they could carry on I guess. Big boots to fill though.

Today is Geordie's funeral. Midday Czech time, 11am ours. Perhaps spare a thought.

I've been playing them quite a bit recently since he passed. They've certainly made some incredible music over the years!

I've only just got around to watching The Death and Resurrection Show on You Tube. That was really a good documentary on the band. It's a real shame what happened to Geordie. I'd really love it if they made another album but I'm not sure if it will happen now and who could replace Geordie? I really can't think of another guitar player like him who could take over.

I'm off to see Jaz on his spoken word tour in a few days. Jaz's statement on the passing of Geordie mentioned that Geordie wanted 'radical change' but at that time he didn't elaborate. In a new interview he says that Geordie 'had had enough' and didn't want to keep the current line up going. Jaz also says his work with KJ is not finished.

Thanks for that. That's very interesting. I hope they can continue releasing new music but obviously Geordie is a big loss for them.

Yes, Sheffield yesterday. Whatever mishaps happened earlier were not present. It was pretty cool. Jaz came across well and had time for people afterwards.

I was told apparently at Manchester there was a picture on show of Geordie just before he passed away which apparently was in poor taste. Which lead to a couple of people leaving 🤔. Which if this was the case it’s very sad

Yes I heard the same though wasn't it the first one in Glasgow? Manchester was where he removed it (I think).
