He seemed like a decent guy. I knew him from a bunch of message boards over the years - didn’t realize how young he was. A drag, innit?

TheLazenby once wrote a PM to say he liked something I had contributed. But, he then pestered me a bit when he wanted me to share some stuff I wasn’t too keen on giving out. (In the end, I did send him the material…) He seemed a bit odd at times, but he wasn't a bad fellow. A genuine RIP for him…

That's a shame. The Beatles guys, in the end, are harmless. Well, except for Jeatletits. Pestering, sure, but they ain't hurting anyone.
The fact like people like this go while clowns like giantleech stay just goes to show how unfair life can be.

That’s what happens when you try to spread the truth about Paul McCartney.
His first wife - dead His mother - dead John - dead John’s mother - dead John’s first wife - dead George - dead Other George - dead Ringo’s first wife - dead The real Paul - dead Mal Evans - dead
Don’t fuck with Macca.

You're forgetting his second wife's leg.

That's sad. Wasn't TheLazenby the guy who did something quite altruistic - like buying some one of a kind expensive music audio thing and then making it available in digital form to everyone else who wanted it?

I've given his homemade version of The Wall a quick scan. Even if you like the album (which I do, about once every five years), he's turned it into an even longer moan by dropping in a lot of songs from The Final Cut, or alternate versions from the movie soundtrack and it looks like an even more tortuous slog. On the plus side, he's made a nice clean rip of the track that was dropped from the album at the last minute and otherwise only appears during the film.

It's none of my business, but how does a 34 year old just suddenly "pass away peacefully in his sleep"? I am not making any claim or speculation about TheLazenby.
However, my understanding is that it's often used as euphemism for suicide.

Here's an acapella performance by TheLazenby of a song he wrote: Frankly, the lyrics to this seem to go a long way toward validating the suicide theory... From what I can tell, a girl left him (he calls her a "friend", but she may have meant more to him than that), and the refrain goes "some of us just shouldn't have friends" It was posted earlier this year. It is the last thing he ever posted on his YouTube channel. He wrote other songs too, and taken together the titles are not very cheerful sounding although that doesn't necessarily prove anything, and some were posted as long as three years ago: Don't Walk Away, Confidence (Somewhere Out There), This Is No Life, And She's Gone... www.youtube.com/user/BedroomScenesMovie/videos
