Andy Gill, guitarist and co-founder of the band Gang of Four, has died today. He was 64 last month. Gang of Four was / is an excellent band - political and funky.
One of the few guitarists I’d say was unique - loved the Go4 and saw them live a couple of times when they got back together. One of the best live bands when they were in their pomp and nice guys too. Still have a postcard the drummer sent me from America somewhere. It was a picture of the Regans and he just said ‘fans like this popping up all over the place’. Sad loss - can’t believe I won’t see him play live again.
It's looking like he was an early Covid victim & yet not a mention of it on this thread. It illustrates how quickly we became overwhelmed.
People saying that they had symptoms earlier are becoming more and more, most put it down to "seasonal flu" and cold weather. Frightening that, especially as we were warned. Almost like the government knew......

Edit: Transpontine was there.
Could Covid-19 have reached the UK earlier than thought?

RIP Andy.
