R.I.P Robin Gibb
Robin was one third of the Bee Gee brothers and the older of Barry Gibb's younger twin brothers. Robin in late 2010 was diagnoised with cancer of the liver and recently awoke from a coma caused by pneumonia in his already weakened state. It seemed despite the grim diagnois he was going to pull through. After all perhaps his biggest hit was "Stayin' Alive". His four kids, current and former wive as well as older brother Barry surive.

Another music legend passed on, may he RIP. Also, I wish Barry well, being the only of his four music artist family left.

Yeah, I just heard about this. R.I.P, Robin. You'll be truly missed. Now Barry is the only one left. So sad.

When I think about the Bee Gees, the thing that stands out the most is when the three made TV Gold on The Clive Anderson Show. A textbook means of trolling. (This really is all Anderson is rememberd for these days)
R.I.P Robin. |

What a shame...
I love the Bee Gees! They were in Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (the movie), and I Loved their One Night Only version of 'Lonely Days'... I would listen to this album everytime I traveled back and forth between college and home. There were a lot of good memories there.. |

Barry Gibb posted a tribute video to Robin as a way of expressing his grief and reaching out to fans in a creative and heartfelt way. I thought I would post it for you all and for some of the fans that may want to post a nice comment to Barry personally.
