Was lucky to talk to George few weeks ago
His band Not Shakespeare opened for many of the WUVT sponsored shows I booked many of them and George was all class and pro. Famously when REM was a no show at after sundown they played for over 2 hours. REM eventually made up the show and played for 2$ right when Murmur album came out and George was just the best humblest dude. All love for George Wade his family friends and Band mates.He did a lot for the Blacksburg 80s arts and music scene. His spirit carries on!
