Location: Isle of Man, UK | I know that this is off topic, but I didn't know where else to go.
Have just heard that Paul Hester the drummer from Crowded House and many other projects is no longer with us.
A wonderful personality on stage, and a poetic songwriter, who it would appear had far more demons than he ever let show in his private life.
I have no idea what drives anyone to the depths of ending it all, but nonetheless I'm saddened to hear it. My thoughts for all his friends and family, and any else similarly affected by such a sudden and painful loss.

from Crowded House's "How will you go":
"How will you go, how will you go?
Drive through the wind and the rain.
Cover it up, cover it up,
I'll find you a shelter to sleep in" |

He was a good songwriter. |
