    Our Dear David has left us. I still can't believe he's gone. His vocals were unique and his flute playing was so soft and beautiful. Why, just why, why is life like this. I am speechless.

    I am 64 and started listening to pop, then rock, then when Jethro Tull came out with Thick as a Brick and Genesis was doing Lamb lies down on Broadway, I started gorging myself with progressive rock and it was freaking awesome. I still will choose prog. over any other music. Each album you listen to you can relate to in some way. I wish we had more prog music coming to the USA but their is not enough smut and metal in prog to satisfy them. Focus, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, ZAPPA. The new prog I am just discovering and it is awesome. BBT being one of my most favorites.

    I just found out about David's departure. I am heartbroken. I went to this show: the first Big Big Train live show. I went from France and my dad went all the way from Bolivia. We met David several hours before the show at the entrance of the venue. He was so nice... We have a picture with him that I will cherrish. I loved their music and it accompanied me through so much. I basically listened to BBT non-stop from 2013-2019. My favorite band. Rest in peace. So much talent.

      I am so very afraid to say - because Genesis is really great - but this band is better than many Genesis songs that I have. (Not talking about post Gabrial era, that is surely weaker.)
      Ok, maybe not better - stupid to say - but closer to my musical taste. Yes, it is the correct phrase.
      My hat is off.
      (And my pants are shited...)
      okay, these guys are twice as many in the band than Genesis, so they have some advantage. :)
