Kid in the Riot Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 Awful news. I last spoke to Jeff at Gruff Rhys' gig at Bath Komedia last November. He was typically all-knowledgeable, telling me about all the bands the drummer that night and been in and how good he was. Get well soon, Jeff.

BS2 Red Posted June 13 Author Report Share Posted June 13 I listened to his radio show once. Two hours of the most eclectic and random music you've ever heard. He'd play a psychedelic disco thrash metal song and immediately follow it up with a pop song before putting out Malaysian schoolgirl punk. I loved it!

Renaissance Williams Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 My son and I saw him at an amazing range of gigs around Bristol and just knew him as "Bristol Gig Man" long before we knew his real name. Best wishes from us both, Jeff - you really are a legend. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slacker Posted Tuesday at 09:06 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:06 Looks like it is going to be a long slow recovery. Hope Jeff will make the best recovery possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin TomF Posted Tuesday at 09:23 Admin Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:23 Really does sound horrible if he's going to be in that long, life changing injuries by sounds of it. I do know some people at Morriston hospital thou, he's in one of the best hospitals in country, they'll look after him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBB Posted Wednesday at 19:01 Report Share Posted Wednesday at 19:01 Such a nice guy. Any band that was lucky enough to clock Jeff at one of their shows, were guaranteed a lively audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
