    :eek: From Crazy Days & Nights:

    This drummer of a three person band who is one of the top bands of all-time has more money than he could ever spend. Did he spend it on his nephew when his nephew was dying of leukemia? Nope. Not one penny. He wanted nothing to do with it or death and told his sister that he was not going to help her or his nephew.
    The nephew died. Think about that when he is out promoting a new record.

    If true it sounds like there is another side to that story. I wonder if the sister or nephew did something to make him cut them off.

    True. You do hear those those stories. Though i don't think the nephew should pay for the sins of the sister.

    I can only think of one three-person band that might be described as 'one of the top bands of all time'. They spent some time Walking On The Moon. But is the drummer still in the music business?

    I can think of another, and the drummer has a reputation as one of the nicest people in music, so I really hope it isn't him, (well, I hope it isn't anyone really), but nevermind.

    One who's daughter is doing quite well as an actress? I googled him and got "He has a brother: Clive and a sister: Carole"

    I think that refers to his band before current ( the one referred to in the blind as one of the top bands of all time)

    Not saying it is him as he doesn't seem the sort

    Ha, I completely missed this clue and automatically read it as "there goes my theory" :D

    I hope it's not him, he seems like an extremely nice guy.

    I typed "there goes my hero" into Google it gave me a band with whom you share part of your user name :D and I went on from there to find his previous band.

    Oh, right! Thanks, I didn't think to go back that far:).

    My initial fear upon reading the blind was that it was a fellow countryman, but his band has more than three members. I want to think better of him than that!

    Nevermind. There's no way it's that drummer.

    I do think the line "He wants nothing to do with it or death" is interesting. Does it mean he couldn't deal with the illness and the approaching death? If so it gives a new spin on what i thought.
