The most bizarre game I was ever at. Beat Schalke 2-1 but lost the second leg 2 or 3 nil.

    Gerry Anderson died last August I see from an Obituary in a paper today. Bit of a shock as I hadn't seen anything about it.

    It was all over the place. But I think that something else massive or someone more famous died the same day...

    EDIT: Albert Reynolds died the same day.

    I must have been so grief-stricken I didn't notice.

    Jazz singer and clarinettist, Acker Bilk who would be known to a certain generation http://www.rte.ie/news/2014/1102/656432-acker-bilk/

    Stranger of a shore would have been his best known rendition.

    My buddy and his then future wife actually fell for each other while Bilk was playing Stranger on the Shore at the Cork Jazz Festival quite a few moons ago.
    Wouldn't believe that myself if I hadn't actually witnessed it.

    Haven't been on in a while but reggae legend John Holt passed away a couple of weeks back (Oct 19).
    First got to know his work through his brilliant song Ali Baba which was covered on a Dreadzone album in the late nineties, and subsequently found out he also penned, among many others, The Tide Is High, while with the Paragons in the '60s, later to be made more famous by Blondie of course.
    more bass

    Can't believe he was so old. Forever associated with election night for me. RIP Brian.
