I couldn't believe the news when I heard that Stephen Gately had passed away this morning. He was so young and so talented. I have created a memorial for him at Friends At Rest (http://www.friendsatrest.com/memorials/stephen-gately/)
He was irreplaceable in boyzone and was so full of energy and enthusiasm on stage. My heart goes out to Andy, his partner and the rest of the boyz. Rest in peace.
I really liked his stuff especially in GLAM ROCK. It seems a mystery, a shock, and a terrible terrible loss.
This article was corrected to reflect that Boyzone was an Irish pop group. It originally read "UK pop group."
