I think it's natural for all of to be hit hard by this, Glenn wasnt that old and he had these problems before, I also don't think he looked that bad. Its crazy stars of the 70s are dying while a lot of 60s artists who look in worse shape are still around. It's a tragic loss, I saw the news pop up on the sidebar of an article while I was researching Dale Griffin's death, actually had just written a blogpost about how this awful week had come to a close with Griffins' death when I got the news,like everyone i laughed in disbelief for a brief second but then immediately knew this wasnt a hoax.

I've been in a funk since it began, Glenn was my hero i listen to home everyday and that included Monday before I got the news. Been listening to his solo songs alot remembering how underrated song like lovers moon and i got love were. In England there arent as many irbutes or artcles as Bowies but I have a read a whole host of new quotes I never knew existed that he had said. I also recommend the detailed article on his Detroit days it's nice to know all these years what his background was as I always felt he wasnt an open book like Henley.

It still hasnt set in, probably because last week when Bowie died and my Dad sent me a email detailing his fond memories of Bowie I actually thought of glenn, my musical hero and how hopefully I wouldn't have to deal with that too soon. I can't believe the unbelievable odds that a week later what I feared most would come true and still walking around in a form of shock.

I'll heal through his music and the tributes and the great community here on the Border. So Thank you lot

My Glenn quote would be the line from New Kid in Town
