Cranberries singer Dolores O'Riordan

one of the most powerful voices of the 90s and one of the very few female vocalist I could stand.
saw her live twice and was impressed

interesting character with a very complex life done of anorexy, alcholism, abuse, etc.

DikMik -- Hawkwind electronix guru

already gone in november, duh. bring on the space ritual!!

(Dave) Brock has also offered his own tribute, saying: "I remember when DikMik joined the band – he bought himself an audio generator from Tottenham Court Road, got himself a Watkins Copycat echo unit, a fold up card table – complete with green baize – and became one of the innovators of electronic music. It was on DikMik's suggestion, and later persistence, that we got Lemmy to join the band and you know the rest! Goodbye old chap your legend lives on."
