Oh, please… Every time I see a thread these days I think someone's died!

Well done that man! Break a leg…or if not, break Ace's

Bob knew cos he (CS) tweeted he'd moved his US kit in prep for the Grammys. Slade is a veteran of Tom Jones' Squires, for those of you old enough to remember.

My pal Bob Richards was in the frame (did the two videos) so was rooting for him...

A lovely, lovely man. I interviewed him once and he had a great story about meeting Hendrix. 'We had the same management originally when he first arrived from America; he arrived right in the room where I was sitting. He started playing the guitar left-handed and filling the room with amazing sound. He was a very easy person…I got to know him immediately really easily, he was one of those sunshine personalities. And so yeah, we were both guitar players. We used to play chess. He once brought me…I had my guitar stolen, he once travelled across London in a taxi to bring me his. It was the wrong way round, of course, cos he was left handed, I smashed it on the ground in frustration but he didn’t give a sh*t, you know. It was fairly brief, though, because when fame took hold of him he disappeared into a cloud and that was that. It was really only just the early time, but it was a really lovely connection, I felt.' Good luck, Daevid...

Seymour dunking! Love it...

Man are my fave band of all time. Been fortunate enough to get to know them, and even met my wife at a gig (who said all prog fans are male?) Hence Deke Leonard was our best man! Or should that be Man?

I appeared as a talking head in this many years agoand was shocked to get emails claiming I was now a TV 'star'... PS I ended my career once I saw how awful I looked!

Who is Laura Doggett?

Deke's final autobiographical book is out! It's called Maximum Darkness: Man on the Road to Nowhere and is as you'd expect a hoot. Reviews: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Maximum-Darkness-Man-Road-Nowhere/dp/1900711192

We had our first and only one this time last year. Nothing got decided, except some really bad song choices, and it was the beginning of the slippery slope towards splitdom. Don't do it!

Am I allowed to say I like the look of it?

Little time to play with toys, but Jack was the consummate host. Bought my guitar too. Top man!

Sorry to be a Grinch but it was Rob Davis the guitarist...

Another Wycombe resident wishing you wal... 🎅

I know it's been posted before, but in tribute to the great man... [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G-zmXgrxUU"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G-zmXgrxUU[/url]

Doing two gigs (last night/tonight) with the mother of all colds. No fun, no alcohol just drugs (day nurse.) Last night was a legal firms party - never seen so many blondes in 6 inch heels and little black dresses... All drunk when they arrived!

Don't whatever you do get into a Mark/David Knopfler situation!
