Hello Good people who read this blog
I just made a complete and total arse of myself online…a stupid story. But maybe fated.
In the process of being an idiot I just found out that Jason Stuart, keyboard player from Hawkwind died today after a sudden illness.
Please send a loving thought his way and to all those close to him.
Lots more on the Official Hawkwind site

Sad to hear of the death of a Hawk. The videos I’ve seen, he always looked like he was really enjoying what he was doing. Cheers Jason.
very sad that Jason should die so young.
Thanks for your comments and sweet thoughts. I only wrote a brief post because I think those who knew him should really be the ones to tell his story.
If you would like to pay your respects go to the blogroll and click “Hawkwind” on their forum they have an online book of condolences and tributes from members of Hawkwind.
See also the official Hawkwind myspace site.
Sorry I have not been more specific about his illness. I saw my own mother have a brain haemorrhage a couple of days before she died, it was extremely traumatic to witness . So my best wishes ( however lame that sounds) go out out to the family , friends , other members of Hawkwind and all the musicians he worked with..XXXXXXXXX
I hope that Jason’s funeral went “ok” today. I was not able to attend but I hope that many people did. I just wanted to send my regards to all those who attended.
Love and Peace
