Hi guys,
This is my first time actually doing anything on myspace, hope I get this right...

Most of you would already know that Wayne passed away peacefully in his sleep on Monday, 21st May. I still can't believe that Wayne is no longer around. It's hard to lose someone, harder when we'd shared dreams. Wayne was a rockstar, a drummer, a brother and a hero to us.

Here's a short story I did at the Eulogy but I was choking on tears, I'm not sure if anyone could comprehend, so here it is on text

"When I first got to Melbourne, before I could even unpack, before we even settled on our band name, Wayne passed me a piece of paper, he said it was a contract. The contract was the simplest I've ever seen, hand written and crumpled, it had San's and Wayne's signature on it and with only one clause.

1. One day we will be Rockstars!!!"

After seeing the mass of people turn up at the wake, the radio dedications, numerous posts on blogs, Wayne, I hope that San and I have helped you live your dream, we hope that we have fulfilled the contract. That "One Day" has come and you are a true Rockstar!

Always in my heart
Justin (JBoss)

Justin.. You, San and Wayne were already stellar rock stars a long time ago in so many people's hearts.

I wished I spoke to you at the wake. I wanted to say something comforting, but I was afraid cos' you were so sad and I simply didn't have the balls.

Please press on and continue living those dreams like before. I know this sounds stupid but please don't take things too hard man.. Take care.

WAYNE OWNS.

HE OWNS EVERYTHING.

He looks cute like an elf and much better than Orlando Bloom. Period.

hey justin,

even as an outsider, just another commoner who'd only met and spoke to wayne less than 5 times ever... i just had to see him one last time that wednesday afternoon... because i know as much as lim bo seng was a war hero, who never gave up fighting for what he believed in even till his last moments, same was wayne thunder to the struggling musicians of the local scene...

that afternoon, i realised how much wayne meant to you and san... i guess living in each others pockets for 12 years really made you guys family, and the determination you guys have can only be leveled with men going into the battlefield ready to give up their lives for what they believe in...

what you said that afternoon really brought me to tears... i will remember wayne and the suns for as long as i live...
