Wow I checked this board today for the first time in a while and was confronted by a lot of RIPs. I thought it was a joke- that he had sworn off posting or something. Just terrible.

[Crusader]

There's going to be a memorial/fundraiser for Geoff. Please read the front page for more information: Geoff Lloyd has passed away.

RIP Geoff.... we will miss you

Rest in peace Geoff. wow, i can't belief this. How sad. Thank you for being so nice and coming on here to post and answer questions.

This thread was nine miles of awesome. It was great how open he was about his days in the band, plus his general awesomeness.

 

I hate to even imagine what "his demons getting the best of him" means. Actually, I don't think I want to know. ;)

 

Rest in peace, Geoff.

Hey all! I do apologize that I haven't posted for a while, and I'm sad that this is what brought me back. Just wanted to offer my own mention. So sad to hear about Geoff. ;)

[here is no why]

Terrible news though I am quite intrigued as to what happened.

 

RIP, you were a cool, cool man.

[taro_twist]

Wow, I hadn't been here in a while, and this is such a sad, terrible shock to come back to. ;) Rest in peace, Geoff. Thanks for the awesome songs and for being so great to your fans.

[Bigger Than Jesus]

What a shame. RIP Geoff. All the best to the Lloyd family.

I met Geoff and Lisa in December at a show here in Ottawa. After being such a huge fan of MGB back in the day, it was fun for me to run into him and get to know him a bit in the past month. So shocked to hear that he is gone. RIP Geoff.

[mrs jesus]

man, this is fucked up.

 

i wish i had some liquor so i could take a shot for the guy.

[rebellious_L]

So sorry to hear about this. Thanks for all the great music

 

Rest In Peace

[IamNick]

peace brother.

[daniel_v]

...this blows.

 

RIP and thanks for the great great contributions you made to 2 of my favorite albums of all time (LOTGA would not have been the same without your grooves). Just a stellar and utterly fresh bass player who will be missed.

 

My condolances to his family and wife who apparently lost her mother 2 weeks ago as well. Can't and don't want to try and imagine what this must be like for her.

[Guest jjazz]

Such a shame. Cannot express how sad this makes me feel. My deepest sympathies to Lisa and the rest of his family. You have my condolences.

 

There's not much more I can add that hasn't been said already. Thanks for being so active and helpful in this community. I can speak on behalf of everyone when I say we really appreciated it. Thank you for putting your creativity into something that has brought all of us here in the first place. You're the reason I picked up an instrument, and you were always my favourite part of MGB from day 1. A band that has helped me through the majority of my life and has given me the passion for music that I now have, that wasn't always there.

 

We will miss you, sir.

[Audio of Being]

Thank you Geoff for all of the music, and for the memories you shared with us here on the bored, you may be gone, but your music will live on in each of us.

 

Rest In Peace

[AnythingYouWant]

Like most I assume, I'll be putting on LOTGA/Raygun/Underdogs today. RIP.

[Who]

My condolences to everyone...
