Hope it all went well.
Oldrocker Page 7
Very sad to hear this news. He and I didn't always see eye-to-eye (who does?) but he was a much-valued and genuinely liked member of these boards. He also had a dry wit about him, which was much appreciated. Condolences to his family - and I hope he's having a giggle wherever he may be.
RIP
I wonder if Oldrocker is up there having a pint with Lemmy? 
Aw, I hope so!
What did he think of Bowie?

Not a big fan, I think. Oldrocker liked early rock n roll...and had a soft spot for Status Quo (Chappers, Herc, correct me if I'm wrong). Can't imagine him dancing to stuff like Fame or Let's Dance or smoking pot to Space Oddity.
To be honest, I found Bowie a bit boring.*waits for rock police to arrive and crucify her*

How can you laugh...locked away in the rock n roll gulag for the rest of your life?
I'd be locked away from Bowie, unless they made that my punishment.

Yes, he was a big Quo fan. I am/was slightly older than him and I would smoke pot while listening to Space Oddity. 
Right on man.

Smoke pot? Disgusting! You young people....

No you are right, but making it up in a nice brew would be OK.
