Walk Off the Earth Keyboardist Mike ‘Beard Guy’ Taylor Dies

https://variety.com/2018/music/news/walk-off-the-earth-keyboardist-mike-beard-guy-taylor-dies-1203096943/

I don't know much about this band, but their cover of Somebody I Used to Know (5 people playing one guitar) was inspired.

Here's a great parody of that Gotye cover, moment.

Tom Petty cover by Walk off the Earth  and

Pharrell Williams cover by Walk off the Earth  featuring  Parachute

Tremendous loss... R.I.P.  Mike.

"Unknown Legend" written by Neil for Pegi......what a beautiful song...but a very hard listen at this time  :'(

Yeah, this is seriously devastating news to me, the news of her death.  Only finding out about it here.  What a mess of emotions I'm feeling right now.  After all she went through, as if it wasn't more than enough, she had to fcukin' duke it out with bloody cancer too... losing that fight in the end, too.  Happened New Year's Day, according to web details / news outlets.  Pegi was only 66 years young.  My thoughts, positive vibes, prayers are with her spirit, her kids, extended family and closest friends.  Man.  You had a steak there... why d'ya have to go after the burger?  Why?   :'(   Can't imagine how he's dealing with her death.  What a mess.  What a mess.  2019 has darkened already.  :'(

Windsor Davies. I thought he'd passed years ago tbh. Quite an interesting life story.
