I don't think that Paul Cannell commited suicide because I lived just around the corner from him and he was an angel!he was absolutely amazing! And my family and his best m8 Patrick thinks that where he was staying killed him

Hey Lavinia,
Interesting comment; I met Paul 25 odd years ago, young punks. Hadn't been in contact with him for years and found out about his death by chance on the web.
What do you mean by "where he was staying killed him"?

Only found out about Paul's death recently through the net; can't believe it, fucking shame. Were in bands together in our teens and twenties; only lived a few doors apart.Hadn't seen him in years but thought of him a lot...RIP mate!!!
