Very sad news, I loved Doc and the Angels.


Quote:
DOC Neeson, the lead singer of Australian rockers The Angels, has died of brain cancer.
He was 67.
The singer behind hits such as Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again? was diagnosed with a brain tumour in January 2013.
He had battled the tumour for 17 months but died this morning at 7.15am.
His children Dzintra, Daniel, Aidan and Kieran and partner Annie Souter thanked friends and fans “for their support through this dark time”.

The Angels were a massive influence on me when I was a teenager. Doc will be missed - there was a documentary about his life on TV just six weeks ago which detailed his struggle with cancer. What a terrible loss.
