      Wow.You probably never would have guessed how famous they would get.Thats pretty cool.Back in the early 80s my brother was talking to an old guy from England and he asked if he knew The Moody Blues,half way jokingly.He said "Oh yes.Justin and John raise horses on their farms".He was just very casual about it like everyone knew where they lived.

    Great to hear Graeme he is so funny when I met him in 1993 - he said "are you sure you are not Marie?" I said who is Marie- he said Justin's wife Oh wow didn't know about her. As I looked back at old photos of her in 1969-70 I thought yes, there is a similarity. He was right back in 1969!! Much love to you Graeme you will be so missed!♡

      I had to keep looking over and over if it was still the same lady.She just looks wayyy different now.I know age can do that but didn't think that much.I just know when she was young she was a model.Graeme gave you a pretty good compliment.Take it and keep it.Not every day someone gets a compliment from a rock star,if ever.😊😊

      @@mpatrickthomas Thank you I found a picture of her with Brown hair and wow we looked very similar This was before they got married in 1969. Before they both started to go Blond . Very early. That's the look Graeme was talking about. In fact he got Justin to met Marie. Long story She is a golfer. And the sun did some damage. If you are out in the sun you have to use cream otherwise lines will come up. Their daughter is still beautiful and I see both of them in her! I had a wonderful talk with Justin that night too! I would give him compliments and he would say "Well thank you very much!" over and over. I was on a mission to show them this glass piece "LIGHT and Balance, the Light and the Balance from Graeme's song "The Balance". It was supposed to get them back together and Hopefully get in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! It started with a dream my husband had when Archangel Michael gave him the design with a little bit of King Arthur added into it. I was just too much. I didnt know Justin was the Balance sign at the time. It was such a magical evening I asked for no autographs or pictures. I wanted to be a fan like no other wanting nothing from them! Keep the spirit going for another 3 it will be a longshot I even have the place to do the Reunion! a perfect Romantic Theater! Keep in touch.my husband in a Libra Moon I am a Libra Sun and he is a Capricorn Sun Michael P. and Graeme are Capricorn Suns!
