We are greatly saddened to have to you that at about 5.30 pm Saturday Nov 13th, Jhonn Balance, was killed in an accident at home.

Under the influence of alcohol he fell from the first floor landing, hitting his head on the floor some 15ft below.

Just read it.

Damn.

"Horse Rotovator" is one of the best records ever made IMHO. Incredible.

Heard about this yesterday from a mutual friend. Very sad news... and a great loss. It's a shame that Geoff was never able to shake the alcoholism off completely, which might have prevented such an untimely end. But, despite his difficulties, he was always a very bright light.

Very sad news indeed. Their version of "Tainted Love" is one of the best covers I've ever heard. It really brought out the sinister side of the song.
