The_Rev Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Was Ray the most talented one? Probably. Jim and Robbie were amazing too, but Ray held the band together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted June 9, 2013 Moderator Share Posted June 9, 2013 Sad day today for me, my favourite author Iain Banks passed away 11 days before the release of his final novel (which was brought forward at his request so he could see it on the shelves - shame he didn't see that but he did see final copy a few days ago).RIP 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 He is almost 95 (it's his birthday in about a month) so he is having a bloody good innings. I'm still conflicted about how I feel about Mandela, he united a nation and ended one of the shittiest political systems of all time but history will portray him as a saint when he clearly wasn't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
