My first sight of you, Garry, was at the Sony cd launch in Toronto on November 23rd. You were being interviewed in an upstairs hallway, and you looked down at me and my daughter and smiled. Later, when the two of us were huddled in the cold outside the building, and you were leaving because it was an acoustic concert being presented that evening and you weren't playing, you stopped and spoke to us. It was bitterly cold, your driver and security man were urging you to get in the car, but you took the time to stay and talk with us, even though you must have been freezing! At the end of the concert you were on stage and JD was being a little playful with you, and caused you to grin -- what a wonderful smile you have! Your whole face lit up! Two days later at the Toronto CD signing, you remembered both me and my daughter, and were so warm and friendly and real! You touched my heart because you let me see the soft side of yours. Thank you.

Garry, I thank you for the times you have spoken to me and smiled at me and given me back warmth I gave to you. The bass in a band has always been my focal point for feeling the heart of the band, along with the drums. INXS has a sound unlike any other band, and although each one of you contributes to the whole sound, for me it always starts with the bass, like the resonance of a heartbeat.

I've watched your face when you are playing and pouring your heart into the music. Your joy is obvious. Thank you for passing on your love of music to INXS fans everywhere.

Thank you for remembering this humble fan, and being kindly towards me.
