Bye bye Billy :(

[Shazza]

Ok sorry Shaz, Michelle and I got off topic........again.........as we do.

He really was great and a nice guy by all accounts...a regular Joe.

Michelle stop it LOL

He wrote a couple of books about his life, and it is very detailed and a true account of how he grew up, was involved in drugs and the whole bit, I have read both but cannot remember the names of the books as I borrowed them from a friend, but anyone gets the chance have a read I highly recommend them. I think they are sold at most book stores.

He was handsome, he still had an aura about him just before he died. They showed a clip of him playing his guitar and singing just 2 months ago, and boy did he rock the house down. He will be sadly missed.

He wasnt too bad as he got older either

Sounds like a good rocker. He was young, very sad. I am glad he had family with him.

He wasnt too bad has he got older either

Some men age very well. Richard Gere being one...:blushing:

Richard Gere can put his shoes under by bed anytime.
My condolences to Billys family and friends which would be a lot of his fans.
