“Guy Babylon, from New Windsor, long-term keyboardist for Elton John has passed away” http://explorecarroll.com/obituaries/3374/babylon/

September 3, 2009 By Kevin Dayhoff

Guy Babylon, 52, died Wednesday evening in Los Angeles, California, according to family sources and Elton John’s official website.

He was born on December 20, 1956, in New Windsor, the son of Graham and Mary Babylon, owners of the Babylon Vault Company, a Carroll County business that has manufactured burial vaults since 1930.

After he attended Francis Scott Key High School he earned his BFA in music composition from the University of South Florida. In 1980, six months after graduation he moved to California, where he quickly established himself as an accomplished keyboardist and composer and respected session musician.

Babylon, as a young man, was known to be a national level swimmer and a family member noted with pride that he once beat Mark Spitz, of Olympic swimming fame. Babylon died of an apparent heart attack while swimming.

Elton John, who according to his official web site, is on holiday in Nice, France, said: “I am devastated and heartbroken at the death of Guy Babylon. Guy played over 1000 shows with me, and we worked together on The Road To El Dorado, Aida, Billy Elliot, Lestat and Gnomeo and Juliet, as well as on countless albums.

“He was one of the most brilliant musicians I ever knew, a true genius, a gentle angel - and I loved him so much. David and I send our deep condolences to Kathy, Max, Ben and Jessica, to Guy's parents, to Kathy's parents and to all his immediate loved ones.’

The web site reports, “Guy's first performance with Elton was for a benefit at the Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles in July 1988, and his first world tour as part of the Elton John Band began two months later in Miami, Florida.

“Guy became lead keyboardist on May 26, 1992, and has been the only synth man on stage since the Walden Woods Benefit Concert in the fall of 1993.”

UPDATE: Be sure to read Jennifer Jiggetts’
Carroll County Times story. She did a great job: “Elton John's keyboardist, New Windsor native dead” at 52 By Jennifer Jiggetts, Times Staff Writer Friday, September 04, 2009

http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/articles/2009/09/04/news/local_news/newsstory3_keyboardist_new_windsor.txt

When he was in seventh grade, Guy Babylon and several of his New Windsor friends formed a band.

They performed at the New Windsor carnival, gave small concerts by Babylon’s pool and won many talent shows in Carroll County. The band rehearsed wherever it could.

Those practices would set the foundation years later for a more famous gig for Babylon: backing up Elton John.

Babylon, John’s lead keyboardist, died Wednesday night in California. He was 52.

Dining at Bud’s at Silver Run

My Sunday, September 20, 2009 Carroll Eagle Archives column - http://tinyurl.com/yca3non - was about visiting historic Silver Run on Sept. 11, 2009.

I ended the column by sharing that another one of the great pleasures in visiting Silver Run is, you guessed it, eating. And why not; Silver Run happens to be the home of one Carroll County’s elegant fine dining experiences, “Bud’s of Silver Run.”

Dinner with my wife


Dinner with my wife

August 10, 2009 - August 13, 2009

http://kevindayhoffart.blogspot.com/2009/08/dinner-with-my-wife.html

Dinner with my wife at Ledo’s. It must have been a mistake that neither Caroline nor I had a meeting last Monday evening and we could actually have dinner together. (On Twitpic here: http://twitpic.com/dftqm)

Of course, we took our child, Mr. Moose.

There were quite a few folks in the restaurant that enjoyed the fact that we took Mr. Moose with us. Mr. Moose has become quite a litmus test about people.

I frequently find it amusing to find folks who do not seem amused with Mr. Moose. For me, it is sort of a test as to who is human and who is not… And yes, I still deny that I am a cylon…q.v. http://tinyurl.com/ovlbrb and http://twitpic.com/8qsyp or http://tinyurl.com/psljze

However, some folks do not get it. Usually an indicator that such folks should get a life.

Yes, dear reader, my extended family is the very essence of bipartisanism. For that matter, so is my extended network of friends and colleagues.

The building is being named in honor of David S.

This new two-story building will replace the current outdated structure and is designed to continue to function as a snack shack and storage facility, but will also include a community meeting room and office facilities for Westminster Fallfest Inc.

The building will be owned by The City of Westminster and will be operated and maintained through a partnership with The City of Westminster, Westminster Fallfest, Inc., and The Westminster Optimist Club.

Funding for this exciting project was made possible by a lead private sector gift of $50,000.00 from the family of David Babylon, along with A State of Maryland Project Open Space grant of $59,470 and matching grants from Carroll County Government and The City of Westminster of $3,304.00 each.
