They just made a series which is airing now, so I thought he was over it too. Great shock to see show up in my news feed. :thumbdown:

In the first episode, he told viewers it was "a dream come true" to be back on his motorbike because he "wasn't sure I'd ever get back in the saddle again".

"There was a time I couldn't balance, I couldn't walk, I didn't think I'd be getting on a bike," he said.

I've been enjoying their latest series. Also thought he looked poorly but thought he was on the mind. He seemed to come over as the nicer one, afaiac.

Another one giving back his pension. RIP

Vince Power off of the Mean Fiddler

Possibly did more for live music/bands/festivals than any other individual in the UK music scene?

Way back when, I had a neighbour whose only records were Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel - he had them all, so I borrowed them and quite got to like them. :thumbup:

He was a Phantom of the Opera for a while too.

I just found out today that Alyn Wallace died at the end of March at just 34 years of age.

Alyn was a talented landscape astrophotographer and made some excellent videos for his YouTube channel. He was living in Istanbul and I was hoping that he would attend the 3 day star party on Sandras mountain last year and I could pick his brains cos I fancy trying the landscape stuff myself.

This link is his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AlynWallace/videos

Yeah, he was never convicted, at least stick to the facts, he was an armed robber and kidnapper
