He seems to have gone back to a more acoustic sound on the most recent videos uploaded of him on youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvIdNWkyEg4 www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmuulNnhp4I One of these is a cover of one of How Come from the new Little Wings, but I think he starts improvising lyrics at the end. I kind of feel like these videos are quite hard to watch, he doesn't seem in a good place. Does anyone know anything about this show and what Adrian is doing next with his music? Watching these videos is straight up depressing.

This whole story sounds uncannily like Syd Barretts. It is WAY TOO similar. It's one thing to disappear from the public eye and another to just completely melt down as an individual. It's hardly discussed openly perhaps due to the extent of its seriousness or else out of respect for his privacy. I suppose there's a lot of fascination with artists like Syd Barrett or Skip Spence as a result of the tragic legends they leave, but it is particularly upsetting when you witness it happen to your favorite artist, to see the before/after, and to not have the pieces in place to understand how/why. We may never know. Really hoping for the best. *edited to remove speculative content

Yeah, at this point I don't really care about the music or anything, just kind of hoping the guy's alright, even though it really isn't any of our business.

This situation is very sad for me. Although i've yet to meet him in real life, through his catalog of recordings i've grown to know him as very real and close friend, one of whom i can easily relate to, and thus feel less detached from humanity. When most other people seem so completely different, it's amazing how much warmth and comfort music like this can provide. I wish i could do something to help him; but what?

I think "herenow" summarizes the situation best when he says "It's hardly discussed openly perhaps due to the extent of its seriousness or else out of respect for his privacy.". It's ok for fans of Adrian to express sincere concern and sadness about recent events in his life, but it's also very important to remain respectful and not to spread unfounded rumors or speculate about the state he is in and what kind of relationship he has had with his close friends. This will definitely hurt him. The situation is still very fresh and everyone is hoping for the best for Adrian. Please stop trying to figure out how his friends feel about it and what they are doing to help. There is nothing you can do. However dark that sounds.

I talked to Phil about the situation a couple years ago, and he was doing everything he could. I somewhat jokingly said to have Adrian stay at their place and hang out there for a while and Phil told me that he's tried that already. I can assure you his friends are trying to help.
