Shit set of affairs.

Any idea what the story is? Was he drunk at Stone Roses? It seems weird how he ended up in Salford and his phone in Edinburgh...

Friends said he lost his phone at the gig didn't they? People came from all over the UK for those gigs so hardly surprising that someone in the crowd found it and took it home with them.

Fuck knows why he ended up in the canal though, other than drink-related. Post mortem today I think.

The canal is bang in the middle of his journey home from the gig to Timperley. He probably fell in pissed.

No, it's sad irrespective of the stone roses. It's getting more attention because of the stone roses, yes.

1763 people a day die in the u.k. so fucking sad. really really sad. Cry
can we take time out to be for sad for each and everyone of them everyday.
im even pretty sure at least ten of them each day are fans of even cooler bands than ians.
