Unfortunately more sad news in the world of music, Robin Gibb has lost his battle with cancer, this follows the deaths of Donna Summer and Crowded House drummer Peter Jones, these are all great losses.

Governments of the world should feel totally ashamed with the fact that they spend more money and effort in killing, maiming and blowing things up than they do in fighting diseases such as cancer.

RIP Robin Gibb

RIP Donna Summer

RIP Peter Jones
