Put an asterisk in the header as I've only been able to locate one piece confirming Hairball's (Eric's) passing on Sep 9th.
Perhaps others here who knew him could also confirm. Was able to match his full name etc from correspondence we had some years ago.
As much as we disagreed and argued on here (got banned arguing with him once) , I was pleasantly surprised to discover we got along great when we met in person a few times.
Good guy, big Beatles fan
Condolences to his friends and family.

Oh no. This is so sad to hear.
Yeah, there probably aren't any poster here that could drive me more nuts, or I could have not disagreed more with in regard to almost anything - and for years we did best to ignore each other's posts - but I feel really down now. He like belonged to the constitution of this site. Actually when he stopped posting it felt odd because I, like I guess everyone, was so used to his daily posts. Felt like something was missing. And damn, he not just missed the new album he had counted so long, but also the Macca track (and in a way he was always right with his annoying 'hit the wall' comments). Does not sound fare.
I only knew him via his posts here. As a person - outside the moniker and presence here - he surely was something much more and else. Social media just sometimes makes communication so difficult. I just checked his site and he was a great artist. I like his works.
RIP Hairball
