We'll keep it going and look forward to updates when we can. The more info the better but cath has done a good job here especially considering the language barrier too.

can someone write down the words bob sang in rainy day opening ,i think, one of last tour dates?


It was the very last gig indeed, on July 8 in Jérez, Spain. Seems Bob was singing the third verse as the second where he changed the third line and put it as the fourth. Something that indicates it wasn't just a mere improvistaion made right on the spot.

They'll stone ya when you are young and able.
They'll stone ya and then they'll say you, "good luck."
They'll stone ya when you're HIT BY A TRUCK.
I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned."


For sure BD played that before!
Don't interpret too much in changing lyrics

Re:For Thomas, with a little help from my friends 5 Months, 1 Week ago  
Thomasī sister just confirmed that 1000 EURO
arrived at her bank account.
She thanks all who donated.
Thomasī body will be buried in Italy.
The italian authoritys will not give her any information
were and when the burial will take place.
A german newspaper from Thomasī hometown Halle (Westfalen)
promised to help her finding out where the gravesite will be.
It seems that it canīt be far from Gardone Riviera and it couldt
take place any moment or happened already.
So if you are from that area and find out something about
where and when please pm me. Thomasī sister would be very thankful
for any informations or datails about that.
Thanks,
Mark

This is unbelievable. Do you know why?
And any news about the criminal investigation?

That's really just so sad. Like it's not bad enough not to be able to bring him home, but not even knowing where his grave will be, that is truely tragic....

Re:For Thomas, with a little help from my friends 5 Months, 1 Week ago  
Thomasī Sister isnīt able to bring his body back cause the high costs.
She declined Thomasī heritage.
Thomas wasnīt insureanced.
In this case the italian state knows that they wonīt receive
any money from the family neither a insureance-company
and they have to bury him on state-costs.
The burial will be assigned and financed by the italian state and
in this case authoritys see no reason to contact relatives.
Thomasī sister also told me that the communications with the italian police and authoritys has been very hard.
They didnīt cooperate with her german lawyer and advised her
to a italian lawyer. That would have been expensive, too.
We donīt know any news on the state of the infestigations right now.
Causeī the italian state ceased the communications with her i think they wonīt keep her updated with news on that.

Thomasī sister ask you all for appreciation on her decision and ask you to believe that she did everything what was possible
to bring Thomasī body back.

Someone speaking italian could send an SOS to maggiesfarm.it. Maybe there is someone who can find informations.

And if each of us send a letter to the German Forein Minister as someone proposed, and one to the italian Foreign Minister, maybe someone will move.

There must be something to do! This situation is not normal. We can not accept that!

Pardon my ignorance, but, if his sister can't bring his body back and she isn't paying for it to be buried (Imean, she doesn't even know where he will be buried!), what will she use this well intentioned money for?

That is what Sabine said:
The money donated I will use like following (if it is okay with you):
Part of Iīll pay my lawyer from it (there was no possibility without a layer in that case),
part of Iīll pay from it the dissolving of Thomasī apartment and part of Iīll finance
from it a passage to Italy.

Re:For Thomas, with a little help from my friends 5 Months, 1 Week ago  
Hi,

A lot of people were wondering why not easyly incinerate Thomas in Italy and bring his ashes back to Germany.

Just to get Thomas' body would be very expensive. For example, she would have to pay for the hospital and the 'fridge' in whitch Thomas has been lying for one month.

Can you imagine that?? The italian police didn't want to release Thomas untill the case is closed, and now, Sabine would have to pay for that.

I can not cool down my anger.

The good news is that we now have 1846 EUR that will be very helpful for Sabine.
We are a good team.
