Hello Frank,
(Phew, at last I'm receiving mail again in 60S_70S. It's been months since 
the last message, and now a whole bunch popped in, about 250 messages. I have 
a lot of catching-up ahead :)
MR>> I am trying to think of the song that was written to a guy who killed
MR>> one of the band members' friends. The guy was in the audience when
MR>> this song was sung for the first time at a concert ...which song and
MR>> who wrote it? Do you know anything else about this incident?
FS> The song you're think of is "In The Air Tonight".  It was a Phil
FS> Collins solo song from his first album _Face Value_.
FS> In any case, I believe that story is apocryphal.  In other words, not
FS> true.  But it does make a good story...
I've also heard this story about a song by Sick of it All (or was it 
Madball?). No, I don't listen to their music (stop throwing things at me), it 
was a friend who told me.
Best proof that it's not true is if you hear it a lot.
