67Rolla-Ken Posted March 22, 2012 Report Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) Hey guys, Some of you may have heard about my brothers passing on Saturday night. It's been a week I'd never like to go through again... Gary suffered a suspected heart-attack while performing on stage as the front-man for his band "Pyramid of the Coyote" at the Civic hotel, aged 34. He leaves behind 2 daughters, 10 year old Trinity and 8 year old Madison. Another local band Stone Circle and DC Productions are putting together a benefit gig on April 1st at the Civic Hotel to honour Gary and raise funds for his girls. I've put forward the name "All Jokes Aside" for the gig but not sure if they are using it :) This will be from 4pm - 10pm and will have quite a few local bands playing (8+ bands). Entry will be $20 per person. Please get the word out, the more people the better!! It's been really hard to know what to do, not really wanting to eat... waking up tired even when I do sleep. I'm so glad these guys from the local music scene have organised this gig, gives us something positive to work on! Edit: more details will be going up on the bands facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pyramidofthecoyote Edited March 22, 2012 by 67Rolla-Ken Quote
ke70dave Posted March 22, 2012 Report Posted March 22, 2012 condolences to you and your family mate. I read about this in the news. Gives a whole new perspective when you hear of someone who was close to the person in the story. 1 Quote

67Rolla-Ken Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Posted March 30, 2012 FYI there is another tribute gig on tonight from 7pm at the Rock Inn (Brookton Hwy, Karragullen). This will be featuring Hells Bells... not familiar with them but I think it's an AC/DC tribute band ;) Quote
