The video posted is pretty incredible, apparently featuring excerpts from the first LOTGA recording sessions.

 

I just keep hearing Vermilion play over and over again in my head. And Indestructible. The man wrote some damn good bass lines ;)

Rest In Peace, Geoff.

 

Very cool video from the LOTGA sessions. A new/old song too. That makes at least 2 songs (Revenge and Sharks of Downtown) that never surfaced from those sessions.

For anyone who wants to donate to chip in, this was posted at the event:

 

"FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WISH TO DONATE FUNDS TO HELP LISA OUT - SIMPLY GO TO ANY TD CANADA TRUST AND DEPOSIT FUNDS INTO #3292 - 6301717 - THIS ACCOUNT IS NOW SET UP - READY TO GO!! THANKS - Sue Lloyd"

 

I assume this whole thing is costing quite a bit too ;).

Mmm, it's bad enough that your loved one has died. Then people expect you to pay out the wazoo to give them a respectful sendoff.

 

It was interesting to read Matt Good's thoughts about Geoff. Happy to see he spoke so highly of him.

[finboy]

a couple points of interest from the vid

 

the imitated british accent and the person filming (named judy) both seem to be prevalent in flashdance II

[StickBoy]

Rest In Peace Geoff.

That picture made me smile, Geoff would surely appreciate the send off. Did Dave show up?

[Hyphnip]

Whenever I listen to older MGB stuff now, I find I always thing of Geoff. He was a good guy.

[compman_55]

It is absolutly wild how time flys by. Almost 20 years since MGB started and three years since Geoff left us. RIP man. You are remembered.
