Richey Edwards. Christ. Who knows if he even died at 27. The Manic Street Preachers could have stood a good chance at being the best band on the planet if he was still at the helm. Instead we are subject to Nicky Wire's obnoxious views and appaling wannabe Martin Gore shemale shenanigans.

I'd be happy for Andre to just piss off back to Australia

Death would only bring on more media coverage for him.

I'm 27 and an artist, albiet not a musician, but a poet. If fate brings it, then who can argue with destiny?
