Me too. Floods. More upset than when I heard David Bowie had died, truth be told. And I actually met Bowie once.
I am guilty of taking the piss on more than one occasion but he's also had quite a few 'thumbs up' off of me, not that he would have given a tuppenny damn about either .
RIP BG.
The feeling is obviously shared as this thread has currently surpassed the Bowie RIP thread by 14 pages.
So while the Beatles may have been bigger than Jesus, BG was clearly bigger than Bowie.
