I wish I'd taken along more pockets now, that stuff kept me going for days (pocket cream cheese does tend to get smelly though, and fluffy)juskidn, too late now though you have that image in your mind. A big thanks to those who made it happen, it was mostly a sad-free day, although it did break through a couple of times. I've know Matt for almost 20 years even though I didn't see that much of him during that time outside of rehearsal rooms, and know him as a great musician so I learned new stuff about him at the memorial, and it was of course, just like Matt, non-religeous. Your words about Matt were touching, thankyou also.<BR/><BR/>PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13140037.post-62974243042788395842008-09-19T08:30:00.000+01:002008-09-19T08:30:00.000+01:00Hello again,Sara.I didn't really know how to get i...Hello again,Sara.I didn't really know how to get in touch with you so I am sending my msg here.<BR/>I have just posted a comment on my blog regarding Matt's memorial.I have included a link to your blog with the letter that was included in the pack.I hope you don't mind.Please drop by if you have some time.<BR/>Regards.<BR/><BR/>Maria Jose/SpaewaifSpaewaifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08479486455381093792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13140037.post-85736061288641223282008-06-04T13:10:00.000+01:002008-06-04T13:10:00.000+01:00Sara,Thank you for your wonderful and very touchin...Sara,<BR/>Thank you for your wonderful <BR/>and very touching words about<BR/>my dear brother Matt - he was<BR/>unique and as you so warmly<BR/>say, greatly gifted.

He would listen politely to my dodgy demo tapes and make polite comments whilst brewing coffee. He was always alive in my mind and I wondered where he was and what he was doing. It is a great shame (on me) that I find out what he has been up to in the event of his death. He actually helped me play bass at one point when I was at University and it became a favourite instrument. He also gave me on one of my midweek visits a small roll-up and said to smoke it when I had a few hours spare. He was right - it did need a few hours . I just wish Matt that you had some more.....<BR/>I hear there might be an album coming out....that would be great to listen to<BR/><BR/>peace and love<BR/>AAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13140037.post-70549021397545563222008-05-31T15:22:00.000+01:002008-05-31T15:22:00.000+01:00HiI'm sorry for your sad loss.

I knew Matt many years ago, he lent me a bass for a couple of weeks and got me hooked -- I'm sure he would have have some withering comments about my feeble efforts ever since! He had a rare, offbeat intelligence and an incredible sense of humour. I lost touch with him more than 20 years ago, but hearing that he has gone makes the world a sadder place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13140037.post-77855616313090092008-05-14T00:51:00.000+01:002008-05-14T00:51:00.000+01:00Hi Andie...Yes, Matt on facebook with his blue x-r...Hi Andie...<BR/><BR/>Yes, Matt on facebook with his blue x-ray passport pic...I am the one responsible.

So it was you who was responsible for Ma Wellpost getting an account, eh? I remember his blurb on his short lived myspace page which was very, very funny. He made me laugh a lot. You also reminded me of the bi-weekly rehearsal CD's he sent which always had that distinctive hand writing and a little picture of some description. Once, a bright orange flyer type thing with a picture of a soft toy eating a biscuit. Very Matt and very funny. I'll never look at a vegan gummi bear again without thinking of him.
