that is very sad, but thanks for lettering us know, mike. i feel lucky
that i got to see him play one last time again, when he and this
special band wowed the audience at the mercury lounge a couple of
years ago. the simplicity and clarity of this guitar playing was a
pure delight. turns out that he wrote the words to most of their early
songs, too.

condolences to our typical girl vanessa and the rest of the band...

We love Randy
From Pylon
Today at 7:41pm
This past Monday evening, Randy Bewley had a heart attack while
driving his
van on Barber Street in Athens, GA. He was taken to Athens Regional
Medical
Center. Today, our bandmate and brother passed away at a little
before 5
p.m. with his family and friends at his side. He will be missed,
even as we
celebrate his life and creativity. His guitar sound was as special
as he was
and always will be. Randy's guitar work defined not only a
generation of
sound but Randy himself. His visual art, painting and photos,
combined with
his signature sound formed a loose set of boundaries that helps
understand
him. His quiet devotion to family and friends will become a
benchmark for
those he leaves behind.
