Very sad Grant, young talented band, now we will never know what those young men could have achieved.

I'd never heard of them. Sad though. Shame for that to happen to anybody.

Nor I, just had a listen and there was great promise there for future material. Agreed awful.

Same for me - though I do wonder if it had been any other four people, would it have received the same coverage? Sad nonetheless.

That is always the case when someone well known or in public eye etc dies. Alas, there are tragidies in the making going on all the time that get none but are none the less tragic; like my neighbour's daughter, which breaks my heart.

I know Grant, there are heartbreaking stories behind most front doors :(
