Apologies to those who this breaks the news to, but found out Bailey from Jets and Chillerton died from cancer earlier this month. Been a while since we saw each other, but this hits fucking hard.
He's never going to get to run into old friends at a gig again, reminisce and complain about getting old, get pestered about reunions, or any of that crap. Nothing in the grand scheme of life, family and friends, but it's a microcosm of the moments that are lost.
Have so many good memories of times at gigs with him as well, watching him play, or just chatting about life. There's probably a period in the old South Coast days where we saw each other every other week in the back room of a pub or a village hall, despite being at opposite ends of the A3. We were lucky to have him while we did. Absolute loveliest of guys.
Fuck cancer.
