Bassist Mick Karn has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. Mick is an amazing player and very humble man. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

For some inexplicable reason I was in the mood for some Marillion and found this great live version of Heart of Lothian. Whoever said that prog bands were clinical live (yes, I know Marillion is a cobbler of Gabriel-era Genesis) has never met Mr. Fish:

Giant hay bale crushes ex-ELO star to death
'Tragic accident' kills cellist who quit band at height of its fame

updated 9/6/2010 9:34:23 AM ET
LONDON — A giant bale of hay has killed a founding member of Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) after it tumbled down a hill and crashed into his van.

Cellist Mike Edwards, 62, died after the 1,323 lb bale rolled down a steep field in Devon, southern England, smashed through a hedge and careered on to the road.

Sgt. Steve Walker, of Devon and Cornwall police, described the crash as "a tragic accident," the BBC reported.

YouTube footage
Police said they used photographs and YouTube footage to identify Edwards and are investigating whether the bale may have fallen from a tractor working on farmland near the road.

Edwards, who played with the band between 1972 and 1975, is believed to have swerved into another vehicle as the bale crushed his vehicle.

ELO eventually sold more than 50 million records worldwide.

Britain's Mirror newspaper reported that Edwards quit the band at the height of its fame to become a Buddhist.

No, I'm not trying to be disrespectful (although perhaps bit ironic)-- it's my favorite ELO song:

This has caused something of a mini-sensation amongst a few friends of mine on Facebook, so why should I deny those here the pleasure:
