Wow, what horrible news. I never got to listen to Gotthard but I heard him on Ayreon's 01011001 album and I thought he was amazing. Definitely one of the best vocal performances on the album (his final line in "The Sixth Extinction" literally gave me chills the first time I heard it), and the album includes the likes of Hansi Kürsch, Daniel Gildenlöw, Tom Englund and Jørn Lande. That's a pretty talented bunch, and I thought he was right up there with them. R.I.P

Written by LeChron James on 07.10.2010 at 07:49 It was a semi trailer truck that killed him. Apparently he was at the side of the road putting on a raincoat when a semi trailer jackknifed and hit the parked motorcycles toppling them over and falling on the Gotthard guy and killing him.
