Pete Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 Wasn't that long ago he was on Jonathon Ross show strutting about like a teenager. True legend I had much respect for.

hogmaw Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 So sad. I had the honour of DJing during his gig at the Forum in London recently, something I will never forget as I've been a fan for 25 years, got all his records etc. I nearly killed him myself by grabbing him by the hand while on stage and making him trip and stumble over the monitors... This guy was more influential on modern music than the Beatles. Fact. I'll miss him for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
