    I'm also using a wallpaper on my phone in honour of Keith.

    My shot of Patron went down well!

    In addition to his many other accomplishments, we can also thank Keith for being Ms. Flowers main inspiration.

    It was just the water from some melting ice, but the thought was there... And I was listening to Knife Edge.

    Missed it (I'll do it a 8 p.m. EST though) I pulled out Isle Of Wight earlier today in his honor though. Just wanted to keep it simple.

    I didn't see this thread until today, and didn't realize the significance of the date, but yesterday I happened to listen to the Boys Club album (Keith, Marc Bonilla, and Glenn Hughes) 'Live From California' and recalled the times I saw Emerson, Lake & Palmer in concert. Thank you, Keith.
