It's with much sadness that we bring you the news this morning that Mick Kluczynski passed away on Friday after a short illness. Mick was a key member of the Pink Floyd touring crew from 1972 and highly valued by the band. After many years as the production director of The BRIT Awards, Mick was looking forward to retiring after this year's BRITs.

Mick won the TPi (Total Production International) Lifetime Contribution Award in 2005 and the TPi Awards being held tomorrow (Monday) will be dedicated to him.
