Last saw them (gong) play in Stoke about 10 years ago!

Hope he is sitting up there having a nice cup of tea on the oily way!

For those who understand the references above and those who never heard his wonderfully freaky brand of acid jazz!

I was fortunate enough to have met Daevid a couple of times and have many good memories of seeing Gong perform, he will be missed by many R.I.P.

Had many a good night listening to gong in my youth and still put it on the turn table every now and again . Very sad his gone but will never be forgotten . We have lost some great guys in the last few years , ie Huw Lloyd Langton and Rob Calvert all acid rock guys . Still go and see hawkwind when there playing near by as we don't know how long there going to be around . Was also at a Nick Turner gig only last night .

Oh. I read on the BBC that the keyboard player from the band that sang that had died. Thought unwashed gonna look all cool then from knowing a non radio one artist

(actually I don't know many radio one artists anymore....I've matured onto radio two )
