was killed yesterday
in the Blue Mountains.

Was it Toby who was the first to solo Soul Doubt at Froggatt? Do I remember seeing a vid of that somewhere?

Agreed I love that piece of footage of Soul Doubt. The guy was a total natural. Quick repeat of Harder Faster was really impressive too.
V sad news.
