The dawn of a new year, for some of us can be sad for the distance in time between us and our loved ones past, but at peace for they are forever etched in our minds and will never grow old and their spirits are with us forever. thanks again Michael for the most fabulous memories and a peaceful and magical New Year to Kell and Susie, Tigerlily and Michael's close family and friends, only gets better, myself and my kids celebrate the passing of our Greg who was INXS's biggest fan. Lucky man is probably jamming with Michael as we speak! They never leaves us, ever!! love Ginni (Jesse & Kyle) x

I wrote a letter yesterday in the memorial book for michael

5th jan 2001 I made a mistake and wondered if it doesn't go into the book if you would be so kind to pass it on to Michael's family

Sincerly Yours Marcia Mackie

THANKYOU VERY MUCH

There is barely a day that goes by without me remembering Hutch and what he achieved. A man so rare and special, a man that's loss absolutely devastated me and still haunts me today. Loosing Hutch was like loosing a close brother even though I had never met the man if that makes any kind of sense. What it must be like to have known the man especially family and close mates the sense of loss must have been beyond description. I just hope every comes together for the Hutchence family, young tiger and INXS, all the best for the new year and your futures.

(p.s Thanks Bono, your a legend.)

Regards,
M.Holland

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful, heart touching site and all your memories of a wonderful man, father and musician!!! Also thanks to Bono/U2 for his inspiring song 'Stuck in a moment' (Can't get out of) - it may will help those who are searching for optimism and help.

All the best to you & Tiger - May things work out the best for her future.

I have been a HUGH fan of INXS and Michael Hutchence for as long as I can remember. I was lucky enough to meet him at Sydney Airport many years ago and he took the time to talk to me and sing autographs. When I told my auntie (from Queensland) she told me that they used to practice in her garage when INXS was THE FARRIS BROTHERS.

I am half way through reading “Michael Hutchence - Just A Man” and feel as though I knew him personally. My deepest sympathies go out to Kell, Patricia, Tina and Rhett. Michael will live on forever in his music and in our hearts.

ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE DIRECTORS OF MICHAEL'S MEMORIAL SITE

In reference to alleged censorship in this guestbook, we draw attention to the charter of this site which states, “This website is Michael's sacred site, dedicated to his memory and celebrating his life. It is a central location for all who love him and miss him to come together and pay homage to a gentle lovable spirit.

It is not a record company site, nor an INXS site nor a fan's web page.”

Recent controversial posts being left here on Michael's Memorial Site have been removed NOT because of censorship, but appropriateness. We re-emphasize that this is a consecrated site and not an appropriate place to leave contentious comments that should be perhaps placed on an INXS forum site. If you have a criticism particularly about personal family matters that are not directly related to Michael's Memorial site, please email us at ian@michaelhutchence.com and we will happily forward such comments directly to Kelland or to the most appropriate family member. Alternatively if you must post such comments on the numerous INXS forum sites on the Internet. Thank you to the other ten's of thousands who have visited this site and have understood and respected that.

i had never heard of INXS until the release of “elegantly waisted”. I had never heared music with their kind of sound before, so i bought it and have become a devoted fan. I found out that my aunt and cousins are huge fans aswell and have been for years. i just wish they would have introduced me to INXS sooner. once i heard of the death of micheal i went to my room and staid there for 3 days just listening to his music and wondering why. i can't help but think that if he had just talked about his problems, seeked help, that he would still be alive. i feel this because i used to be suicidal, i got help and learned how to deal with my depression. i wish he had found the same inlightenment in time. i appologize if what i have said brings pain and offence, that is not my intension. my intent is to maybe bring help to others before it is to late. i wish the best for family and friends.

Thankyou Mr Hutchence for this magnificent web site. I have been an INXS fan for a long time, have most of their albums and will forever play their music, but the shining light of the band has gone. I feel for the rest of the band members. INXS will never be the same, but the music will linger forever. Michael's memory will never die as long as Tiger is alive. She is so much her Dad. Thankyou for the opportunity to express my feelings. Goodbye Michael.

A fan forever,
Ann.

Thank you for this great webpage Mr Hutchence!

I 've been at the monument in the memorial garden just a few days ago when i visited Sydney after a long time again. The city is a bit empty without Michael....i must say!

Anyway, i saw the X-mas tree on the grave and i love to see that he is still in mind of many people. I also read about the custody battle around Tiger. I really don't appreciate Bob too much, but the sisters are all that'ts left for Tiger of her 'used to be' family and due to that i wonder if the court really does that girl a favour if they sent her to Australia. May it is a bit to early for that. She needs something close that she can stick to and rely on. Something that does not change. Although i don't like to hear she is calling Bob Dad. But the best for the girl is the best to keep Michael alive. She's got his eyes!!!!! It is beautiful.

Wishing you and your family a happy new year.

To the Hutchence family

I have been listening to Michael Hutchence and INXS since I was 8 years old. I am now 26 yrs old and I still love them. I read this site with interest and it's great to know that his legend is still around- I believe his legend will never die. To Kell & the Hutchence family, I really enjoyed reading this site- it made me realise Michael was not solely a rock star but a family man who cared for everyone around him. Again thankyou!!

I am half way through one of the most heart warming and yet deeply sadening books I have read in a long time, 'Just A Man' the real Michael Hutchence, when I thought I would visit this website. A legend who will live in my heart for the rest of my life, Rest In Peace, Michael.

Love & Peace

I have just finished reading the book “just a man”. It was a beautiful book and this is a beautiful web site. I am upset to see that a tragaedy like this has happened to such a beautiful man and “families” but he is one we'll never forget. I've always loved his/inxs music and will always be in my heart.

I am a writer/researcher for a web page and i see hundreds of sites per day. Your site touched me, as i can see the love and care put into it. i have always been a fan of Michael and INXS, and i'm glad to see such a great memorial site. God Bless.

I am a great fan of Michael and of INXS and I feel privilaged to have seen Michael perform at the Civic Centre, Caloundra, Qld. He was awesome on stage and it was amazing to see how he mesmerized the whole audience. Especially the girls. Beautiful seductive eyes. So sexy.

Sadly missed. The world has lost a great talent.
Matt Bolick, 03.01.2001

Just stumbled onto your site. It's beautiful. INXS was for me the Rolling Stones of my generation. I was first exposed to INXS in 1984 while on tour with the Go-Gos. I was hooked from them on. I saw the band perform over 20 times and it wasn't until 2 months before Michael's death that I was able to meet him. I took my tour poster from 86' and had the band sign it. I was the first person that Michael spoke to in a room of 30 or 40 people. I felt as if I was talking to an old friend. We talked about Tiger the most and how he missed her. I will always miss Michael. He was my idol as a teen, and my hero as an adult.....

Peace be with you as you watch Tiger grow and see Michael in her eyes.....

p.s.....it's so very sad about Paula as well........

I have just read a book on Michael's life and feel like I know the family. I remember I was so sad when I heard he had died. I was in shock. He had such charisma and energy. The world lost a great talent and wonderful person.

Just wanted to add - you can really be proud of Tiger! What a sweet girl!

It's been a few years now, but still at a loss for words. I never had the opportunity to thank Michael for all he gave to the world. I know I am not the only one, but I'd like to say that, Michael gave me more than just his voice, his words and his songs, he also gave me life. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be here today. Just wish he knew just how much more he gave to us all.

I just read in People Magazine that Bob Geldoff was awarded custody of Tiger Lily. Surely, this can't be true. Was any of Michael's family trying to get custody of her? This is so tragic that he of all people should get custody of her.
Cissi, 01.01.2001

I just want to say, that this is the most beautiful site I've ever seen. I've been an INXS fan since 1988 or something. As everyone else - I miss Michael deeply. But, I believe that we fans can't really imagine what you - family and friends - are feeling.

In my opinion, there will never be a singer with Michael's voice again.

Regards,
Cissi

I have been a major fan of INXS and Michael Hutchence for years. I was in my teens when their music became popular in America. What a great time to be alive. Michael's life is an inspiration and will live on in our hearts and minds. God bless him and his family.

It's barely the new year here in Colorado, and of course, my thoughts go immediately to you, Michael. Another year without you, and yet another year to enjoy the beautiful music you left behind. I certainly wish you could have seen your beautiful Sydney for the new year ... it was gorgeous. We continue to miss you, and hope all is well wherever you are. Love you always.
