Sad news. I met him at the first BARC. North of Malibu really rocked their set at that event and he seemed to have a real passion for everything instrumental surf. R.I.P., George.

My condolences. Very sorry to hear about this.
There is no reason to ever be bored.

...why yes, I suppose I do have a double bound guitar fetish...

Loved his work and his passion. R.I.P. George. You were always very kind to me. I am certain that the RRF will miss your positive energy.

Just now learned of this. Sorry to hear that we are minus another great and beloved person. We lost Ken Joseph way too soon, too.

All the best to George's friends and family.

Just now learned of this as well. George and I had many dealings together and we shared a love of surf music. So sad. RIP George.

Today would have been George's birthday; his 68th, I believe. A day doesn't pass that I don't think of him fondly.

Let's remember George and his wonderful spirit as we go about our daily routines, shall we?

I still think of George each time I log in. He so loved his music and introduced me to a fine amplifier builder. Seeing his name here and having people reminisce about him continues to be a comfort.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
