    Very sad, RIP Greg. A talented, strong man with a passion to perform. Very successful career but sometimes tragic life. The loss of his brother, band member Oakley. Troubled marriages, failed marriages, Greg saw it all! His life should be celebrated.

    Another picture of a dead musician now hangs on my music room walls, they are full of them. The ABB has been one of my favorite bands since they started up. Rest easy Brother Gregg.
