He died somewhere in a hotelroom in Spain.....Mekong ?

That's some dark humour, BB, given Mekong's last thread - unless he was pulling our collective legs, and I really doubt that.

 

While I didnt particularly gravitate toward the stuff Moore did in his solo career, I liked him during the Lizzy years. RIP.
