Unfortunately Boyzone's Stephen Gately is deceased, alas no more, gone to meet his maker, the singer is dead. He has quit his mortal coil to join the great boy band in the sky. He died suddenly and for no obvious reason after a night out in Majorca whilst on holiday with his partner, Andrew.
Stephen, an average singer who didn't play piano or guitar and a decent enough actor without being particularly special, was well loved by many people including his mother.
Louis Walsh, Boyzone's manager, said "We're all devastated" the lad was like a son!
As we go to press, the other members of Boyzone: Lynch, Duffy, Keating and Graham each a household name, have landed in Majorca to be close to each other.
So whereas minor stars like McCartney, Jagger, Springsteen, Page, Plant, Coverdale, Gillan, Tyler, Wilson, Bono, Rose, Daltrey, Fogerty, Rodgers, Ridgeway, Cocker, Anderson, Henley, Corgan etc are all condemned to struggle along and suffer the iniquities of old age.
The greats live on forever in the lasting image of their heyday. Except for Jacko who obviously got his dates mixed up, however at least he has a new album out to herald the pending release of his first ever full length feature film!
