	Plain Ol Steve	Mel, I'll drink a pint or two to you tonight. I blogged a bit about you on my MySpace. I hope it does you some small justice. Now, I'll pick up my guitar and pretend to be you for a a few hours. I know that I will do you no justice there. Best Wishes in this life and the next, Steve   Posted by Plain Ol Steve on Wednesday, May 21, 2008 - 1:48 AM [Reply to this]

	Tom	Mel, Your vibe is stronger than ever! I can feel it inside. For 35 years I have been rocking to your music. Always trying to turn my friends onto it as I thought it was so unique and ahead of its time. You guys in Trapeze were so filled with electricity in every show I saw which was quite a few here in and around St Louis Missouri. When I think about those shows it truly takes me back to some incredible feelings about past summers in the 70's. Your song Touch My Life is so true. I'm sure you take much satisfaction in knowing there are so many people whos life you have had such a great influence on. I'm 50 and you have been with me for 35 years man. I did have the priveledge to meet you one time at a meet and greet in 94 and you were really a fine gentleman having a good time with everybody. Mel, Cheers to you! Wishing you and your family much peace and love from the midwest of America. Tom   Posted by Tom on Sunday, May 25, 2008 - 10:15 PM [Reply to this]

	Blood River	Just heard of Mel's passing from the Glenn Hughes newsletter...very sad but glad he has gone on to a much better world. All of my Memphis guitar buddies and myself who grew up with Trapeze have been immensely influenced by him.
