I wonder if anyone knows what became of Brian Jones, who was a long standing roadie for the band and I think Bev Bevan's drum tech, right through to the end. Brian used to live just down the road from me in Birmingham (with his mum) and along with several other ELO roadies used to drink in my dad's local pub (he knew them quite well and got quite a few bits of ELO merchandise for me from them). I would often see him in the 80's driving around in his blue Range Rover and Bev mentions him several times in 'The ELO Story' including one hilariously drunken encounter with a dominatrix!
He'd be getting on a bit now, I assume, probably around the same age as Bev or Jeff but would be interesting to know what happened to him?

Probably tried to sue them all for something or other. Seems to be the de rigour for ELO on their demise.

Cheers thanks, I live in Sutton Coldfield and so was interested if it was anywhere nearby.

Bev Bevan and Jasper Carrot (or Bobby Davies as he was then) were both born and brought up fairly close by and went to what was then, Moseley Grammar School. I think Richard Tandy was also fairly local too.

Is this actually true? Anything posted as an image rather than text is a bit questionable. This also ends in a question mark, also a bit odd.
