Mick - Unanswered prayers.

Just some mournful thoughts following this Unique dude's UNTIMELY passing...

Anyone know of the Funreal? is there a memorial service for fans?

I noticed some associated artists didn't put out a statement- Bill nelso- Midge ure- kate Bush - unless I missed them.

How far did the new Dali's car project get? seems incredibe Mick could work at all on that when he did.

What happened tot he benefit gig Ure was supposed to arrange?

How about a benefit for Mick's widower and child- a sylvian/jansen/barbieri show? An auction of Mick's memoribillia?

The following is Bill Nelson's message posted on his own forum:

I'm deeply saddened to hear of this. I too was hoping that there was some chance of recovery for Mick, or at least a respite and extension of his life. It's like a knife to the heart. I pray that Mick's loved ones will find some way to endure this and gather some solace and warmth from the love that other friends and fans of Mick will send them. I'm so sorry.
