Kev started out as a member of the audience (in a pub in Long Lawford in about 1994). He followed us around for years and began to help us pack down occasionally.
Kev became good friends with the band (and Stu and Rache in particular - he was Stu's best man) and at some point he started pushing the buttons for the odd gig, eventually becoming the bands full time lighting engineer, roadie and out front trouble shooter.
On 17th January 2007 Kev was involved in a serious accident at work and died of his injuries.
He is much missed and remembered everytime we play.
The world is a poorer place without him.
