Or since he left the band before that album, something about Leaving Home or something.

Also, he produced Redd Kross' Neurotica, so that's pretty cool.

He was the last one left. :(

Sure Marky was in the band way longer, and he's still around, but whatever.

RIP

Beat on the coffin with a baseball bat, oh yeah.

What can you do?

Rest in peace, my drummer bud.

Someone on my facebook posted:

"Is there another rock band of comparable status whose original members are all dead? Are the Ramones the first? It seems meaningful in some way I can't explain"

I thought about it for 4 minutes or so and was stumped.

I can't think of another. Even Iggy probably has another few years in him.

All of Tyrannosaurus Rex is dead (Marc Bolan and Steve Took), but using a 2 person band should be considered cheating, plus the "comparable status" would be in question.

Excellent suggestion, Haq!


Guys, what about "Tyrannosaurus Rex"?
