some heavy shit...
was he killed ?
Re: The Official Postive/Inspirational Quote thread..
No it was one of the surviving members. I actually amn't sure which one, although I'd like to track him down to thank him as those words have helped me a lot.
At the time I didn't know the background of the band, thought he was just a cool musician - I think I was around 12 and approached him at a wedding gig to give props + express my interest.
When I found out some time later what had happened his bandmates the words took on a new meaning...

For ages I thought that was Aphex Twin, then I read it was from Willy Wonka. But apparently it's really old - originally by some guy called Arthur O'Shaughnessy:Richard D. James wrote:We are the music makers,

Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;—
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems.
