Ian Curtis's Gravestone stolen






Now a couple of days ago i came across a story describing the theft of legendary Ian Curtis's gravestone. Now for those of you who don't know who he is ( shame on you by the way!) Ian Curtis was the lead singer of the band called Joy Division ( known for songs such as "Love Will Tear Us Apart" and "Ceremony") . Ian Curtis was a brilliant poet and songwriter. Sadly, Ian committed suicide at the age of 23 in 1980. I am not going to speculate as to why he had done such a thing- all i know is that the world had suffered a great loss. Ian Hung himself in his kitchen on may 18, 1980. Without a doubt he is still missed and remembered by many.


Now what i really want to talk about is how his gravestone was stolen by some idiots in Macclesfield, Cheshire. I honestly do think that the person who stole the Gravestone must've been one of those crazy "fans" who would do anything to own some memorabilia from their 'Fave" artist. How low and stupid can you be to do such a thing. Honestly what can prompt a person to steal a gravestone? Why can't they just leave Ian alone-let him rest in peace. The man had a chaotic life-why can't they let him have a peaceful death!



It baffles me to the graetest degree to fid out that someone could do this! However what baffles me even more is that people do not care. Has anything been done to catch the idiots ? No! Does anyone else care? no! I just sincerely hope that the idiots would be punished for what they've doen one way or anothe.



Ian, we still love you and miss you! You are always in our hearts and minds and we hope that whover did this will be punished!



Rest In Peace Ian ~~~Love Will Tear Us Apart!~~~
