Kid in the Riot Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 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, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 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, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
