December 20, 1956 - September 2, 2009

Hercules has learned that Elton John band member Guy Babylon has died of a heart attack while swimming in the pool. He was only 52.

Everyone who knew Guy knows that he wasn't only a very talented keyboard player, arranger and composer, but also one of the nicest persons on the planet. So the Elton John band is not only loosing an irreplacable musician, the Elton John band and the Elton fan community are loosing a wonderful person that will be greatly missed.

We would like to convey our deepest and sincere sympathy to Guy's family: We are thinking of you at this very difficult time.

This is a very sad day and everyone in the Hercules team still is in deep shock.
