I knew Lionel for more than 40 years - he and I were 2/3rds of Eyrie - Beattock/Moffats only progressive heavy rock band when the band split Lionel wanted me to buy a bodran. Luckily for BlackeyedBiddy Kris took up the wee drum.I'd often thought of an Eyrie reunion in Beattock hall but sadly the windows will remain safe.Lionel Kris and Billy played at Helen and my wedding in1988 what a great night that was.Lionel also played the big and wee pipes at my 50th sadly that was the last time I saw him the world will be a dull place without you big man - I'll never forget you.
