A Tribute To Our Fallen Member

Jan Eiken (Old55) passed away in February.

He was an insightful and funny guy. He loved to have a go with a play on words (especially lyrics). He will be missed.
 
Some "Weird Al" lyrics by Jan were:
 
VSTs
Monkey Songs Are Funny
 
Some of Jan's serious work:
The Mermaid and The Bouy
The Last Time I Died
Crissis du Jour 
Obsolete
 
Please keep good thoughts for Jan's family.
 
East and West Coast Memorials will be held for Jan.

    I am so sorry to hear that.  He seemed like a really nice guy.  Our thoughts go out to his family and to you all who worked with him.  Another star in the sky.

    Wow.. this sucks.    I only "knew" him through these forums, but he seemed like a genuinely nice person.   RIP.
