one month passes...
Huge fan of Musical Youth here! I'd heard of the reunion of the band, and was eagerly looking forward to new tracks from the fellas. Then, the tragedy.

From what I read back then (in the Voice newspape fro London), it was Patrick's brother, Freddie (drummer). He dropped at the home of a friend, and the death was believed to be drug related. What a pity!

two weeks pass...
I am glad to inform you all that Dennis and Michael of Musical Youth are allright these days. Sadly enough, Junior (Patrick's brother) is in a mental hospital and Kelvin, well... I'm not really sure about his whereabouts these days. I met Michael and Dennis last week and I heard the most important thing I wanted to know: Patrick did not die of drugs! He died from natural causes, heart problems to be excactly.

Dennis and Michael are great guys to be around and I am thankful to the Musical Youth members for giving me so much pleasure, enjoying their music!
