Never heard of him? Not many people have. He was a workmate of John and I in broadcast audio. He was also a roadie, and a very good one, as well as being rather nifty as a sound engineer.

Sadly he passed away of a brain haemorrhage aged just 45 last weekend. Very sad.

A dapper dresser, James would turn up for a days work looking more like he was going on a VIP lunch! He last worked for me on a theatre install in 2003, and I only have a photo of him up a rather tall step ladder being as cool as only James could be, rigging the overhead wiring.

A lovely chap we'll never be able to chat with again Cry
That none should be able to park up and enjoy the view without a smartphone and the knowledge in how to use apps

Sorry for your loss Graham. Living life large is what matters not a larger lifeline...and it seems James lived by that motto.
