Dear Lovely Ones,
Today we lost a man whose passion for country music was so big that it will take some time for community radio to recover. Roger Lloyd was a champion of country music on community radio and also a staunch social justice advocate for those in need. His fervour for country music extended to attending more live music shows that I can remember to diligently videotaping many of our live performances to upload to his youtube channel: Roger Lloyd. Over 200 edited videos are up there and will live on in the ether forever. Sadly Roger lost his battle with the big C this morning and has gone to spin discs with the angels and boxercise with the other spirits.
What I remember the most about him was his big grin, his honesty and his joy at playing new music on his Casey FM radio show "Rebels Rednecks Rock'n'Roll. His legacy will continue and so will his spirit.
Vale Roger, I'll miss your posts and your wit. Thank you for giving me a great start as a recording artist. You were there from the beginning....see you on the flip side xxxx
