You'll live forever in the minds and hearts of pure metalheads... I love your brilliant work, especially in Rigor Mortis' almighty "Freaks"! R.I.P. axe-warrior, you were a great influence for many!

This makes me think of Dimebag a lot. Anyway, I'm always sad to read news like this. RIP.

RIP I don't listen to them but it is always sad to see a musician die. Especially, a day after the bassist for Iron Butterfly died. And this man was very young, 47 isn't very old.
