Stereophonics' Kelly Jones Attends Drummer Stuart Cable's Funeral

Stereophonics singer Kelly Jones attended the funeral of the band's former drummer Stuart Cable in Wales yesterday (June 21).

Cable, who died earlier this month, was remembered during an emotional service at St Elvan's Church in Aberdare.

Comedian Rob Brydon and actor Rhys Ifans were among mourners inside the church, while thousands of fans also lined the streets nearby.

The funeral included a performance from one of Cable's favourite band's High Voltage, who played AC/DC's 'Back in Black'.

Jones told the BBC that “no one else could get a send off like that”, adding: "It's hard to walk out crying when they are playing Back in Black."

Cable was found dead at his home in Llwydcoed on June 7.

The results of a post-mortem have been deferred pending the outcome of toxicology tests.
