Just had a thought- it would be nice to have a good bio on Tim. There may be one on the DA website but I am not aware of it. I think we fans would like this; I would.

wow. what can one say. i saw it in an email and kinda hoped to get on here and find out it wasn't really true.
got to meet him before briefly. big guy. funny guy. big heart was how he came across. great bass player.
i remember when i borrowed a the who DVD from the library and saw john entwistle playing and thought he was pretty good and sounded almost as good as tim.
at least i realized it sooner than i realized gene was gone. life is kinda crazy at times.

It's still a shock for all of us, MF....

I just came across this thread, and... wow, I'm stunned.
I remember reading an interview with Tim (don't know where to find it now) wherein he said something about how the bass guitar part is "the least important thing" going on in any given song. I shook my head and thought, "not when you're the one playing the bass, Tim."

Still feeling the loss.

yeah..

a phenomenal talent and obviously well liked and respected member of the band... not sure I saw a band tribute to Tim. Was there one?
Posted by wayneb on 12-09-2018 at02:43:
Terry did a great tribute to him. And, of course, The Choir did one.

I would like to see a video of each of the remaining guys in turn telling us about what Tim meant to them, personal stories , etc.

I remember feeling fairly devastated when Mark heard died. And when Rich Mullins died that hit us pretty hard mainly because we had just seen him at Cornerstone playing football with some kids. Both of them were part of that 'cornerstone-ish' community of people. We met Rich very briefly a couple of times, didn't really come close to 'knowing him.' We had hung out with Tom Howard briefly a time or two and when he died it still felt like a punch to the gut.
When it came to Larry Norman and Gene Eugene they were different for us, mainly because we knew it was coming with Larry and never got to know Gene really at all.
But I think a lot of it has to do with all of us being part of a weird little community or 'family,' these artists have/had special unique relationships with their fans. That and the fact that their music is personal and real as opposed to CCM fluff. We all empathize and relate to what they say through their songs and often most of us are square pegs or outsiders as well. The type of people cornerstone was made for.
It's like losing a brother, uncle or cousin. |
Absolutely spot on.

I drove by Tim's old home in Monrovia yesterday while on my way to a Mike Roe concert. A fabulous base line was playing on Motorcycle, and the tears came again.

mr. chandler..

I wonder if the choir will have an honorary empty chair on their upcoming tour? didn't look into details; just assuming derri and mike were both playing guitar. but while certainly nothing like tim, derri did play respectable bass on some dogs tours...
Posted by wayneb on 02-27-2019 at01:02:
I suspect that Mike will play some of the bass parts - I will ask him on Fb and let you know.
Posted by WoaaahJelly! on 02-27-2019 at02:39:
I think I just now figured it out. Some guys on tour play the bass because someone needs to fulfill that roll. Tim was a Bass Player. That's what he did.
Posted by WoaaahJelly! on 03-09-2019 at13:06:
I think we all saw that one. Quite the intimate look at his life.
Posted by Audiori J on 03-09-2019 at17:00:
Thats the one they played at the memorial service.
Posted by sondance on 03-16-2019 at17:47:
that's really nice
Posted by Mountain Fan on 03-22-2019 at22:39:
Yes, Mike played bass and did a pretty good job. Great show in Kannapolis, NC! Wish Dan coulda been there too. Full house! After Weather Girl, Derri said "i'm exhausted"
good mix of tunes, mike, kerosene halo, derri solo, choir past and present. really liking some of the new tunes too.
