Sad to announce that Michael Fame Günther, founding member of Agitation Free, has been found dead in his appartment in Berlin yesterday

Michael still was a member when touring Europe in 2012, but recently left the band.
This is a snapshot I took at their Berlin concert

I got the news from Alan Burant of The Erotic Dancer's Guide to Fine Music.

His show is playing now as I write this message.

I certainly loved him.  Although he was down on his own playing.  He felt he may not be up to the standards of the band.  Hard to believe given his skills!

^ He was a perfectionist and had a style so great he probably couldn't see it.   Which is amusing since he and Jones held the band together musically.   Without his solid foundation it wouldn't have worked.

Oh Bonzo, you are missed.   Everyone imitates you and some don't even know it's you they're imitating.
