Norm
Sweeney dies
1.7.09 - I had an e-mail from the Darcys a few days
ago informing me that Norm Sweeney, ('one of the good ones'),
had died on the night of Friday 26th. It wasn't entirely unexpected,

and I recall he wasn't too well even then. Norm was ever the
gentleman and always fastidiously turned out - often leaving
in his sartorial wake the musos in his care..

1.7.09 - Speaking of Aztec, I

have arrived in the office and we're now just waiting on the
digipacs, (covers), which Ted expects should be in sometime
next week.

45th anniversary gig at the Palais on Friday August 14th. (See
the concert flyer
for more details). I said I would.. |
