Peace go with you Gil ....



I always wonder at public grief for the deaths of those we have never met, but some people work their way into our hearts, and so their deaths feel personal.

R.I.P. Gil. Thankyou for the wonderful, intimate show you performed in early 1999 at the Bottom Line in New York.

Check out some bootlegs on this blog.
