Hi there. Thank you for visiting and following HoB. Much appreciated!
I remember the tragedy of his suicide. Loved his music.
Also love his music, big fan here! Was unfortunately too young to ever get a chance to see them live.
Hmmm. I can’t read, “It’s better to burn out, than fade away” without starting first with (something like) “Gunter glieben glausen globen” . . . .
