He's so dang cute! I met his son Roag when the Pete Best Band came to town. In fact, I spent about four hours talking to him and playing pool. A really sweet person, his voice sounds just like his dad, same inflection and all! I too love Neil. Dana ; )

A very BIG thank you, Dana!!!  That is so cool.  Roag is a good person, as his dad, Neil, was.  Too bad Neil didn't know all these people liked/love him.  Maybe he does now...............now................and now..............

really R.I.P Beatles roadie and one of those 5th Beatles



btw is there exists any audio of Neil's funeral where Pete Townshend played "My Sweet Lord" for him. I have read that he and Pete were quite close friends.
 just look at Pete, looks like he was so suffering after Neil's death :(

^ Most of the Aspinall video on Youtube appears to be from The Beatles Anthology, which we've probably all got. I can't find anything from the funeral, but don't let that stop you from looking.

^It's odd, because I do remember (or think I remember) seeing some footage of it somewhere. But I can't find anything at the BBC, CNN, MSNBC or Youtube. There are photos, though.

because rex.com probably have the most stupid register system I have ever seen in my life. ever try to register? don't worry, they will never let you in there, and probably noone was got in there. I always hated that website. they have so many great photos, but those pictures are 100 x 130 pixels. WFT I could do it with these kind of size of photos? ANYONE, HELP...
