Rest In Peace Daevid Allen

**Obscured** · 03-13-2015

Just because we knew this was inevitable doesn't make it hurt any less.

**HONDO** · 03-13-2015

Daevid and Planet Gong have been a huge influence on me since I was a teenager. It is very hard for me to swallow this as I feel as though I have lost a very close and dear friend. I have nothing but love in my heart for this man who came to this planet to spread the seeds of life,love and happiness to all who are fortunate enough to receive it. His Flying Teapot has arrived and will circle this earth spreading love, hope and happiness, Hope For Happiness until this old and tired planet calls it quits as well. He is a rare gem that is to be cherished and adorned. I am happy that he is at peace, I hope we can appreciate our own lives and "Never give a day away", take nothing for granted and take time to digest this gradually. "Shine On, Shine On Love, Shine On".......

RIP David Allen.

The other thread was not an "RIP" thread per se, though I've been reading every new post, hoping it would not end with this news. I will be listening to a lot of D. A. music and Gong music.

Ach... he left his mark, but it still hurts. At least his suffering has ended.

RIP Daevid.

Another timeless one gone.

RIP and live forever

Sounds like it would be a relief to him after following the other thread for a while.

Very much a singular body of work which will only grow in mystique. RIP.

RIP Daevid Allen.

Now listening: Gong - Live Au Bataclan 1973

A friend, bandmate and inspiration. I'll treasure our time together until I join you. See you next time, pal.

I'm glad he's free from pain now.

But this is my biggest "rock loss" in a long, long while. You just can't replace someone like this, and you're not supposed to have to. One of a kind.

Hero.

A very sad day, hugh loss for us all.

**Conti** · 03-13-2015

A hero is gone. I'm proud to have shared my existence in this planet with him. Rest in peace, dear Alien.

**Kieranfunzig** · 03-13-2015

Thank YOU for the music. Warmest wishes to you and you family x

RIP Daevid Allen. The outpouring of love for him from his friends, bandmates and fans this morning is a beautiful testament to his legacy.

**happytheman** · 03-13-2015

Like others.. so glad our paths crossed although it only through his music.. Fond memories of several of his releases.. particularly Now Is The Happiest Time of Your Life.. came to me as a present from my brother at an interesting transition in my life.. Rest in Peace Daevid...
