Fatalities include booking agent Dave Shapiro and former The Devil Wears Prada drummer Daniel Williams. May they rest in peace.

 

Dave Shapiro was in Count the Stars too!. Huge loss for the scene, seeing all the tributes come in.

 

He played drums for Craig Owen’s pop punk band too

 

Did Dave have a label imprint under Rise too or am I thinking of someone else?

 

Velocity Records. I just got my Thursday/Drugs order from them the other day.

 

Velocity Records, yeah.

 

And they still exist? I had no idea.

 

Wow that's insane and terrible

 

ugh that sucks

 

i've known dave for ... years. he was on one of the very first absolutepunk podcast episodes.

jesus.

 

That’s terrible. RIP.

 

I’ll never forget touring in 2013 and he was the booking agent for ALL the big bands. Every band i met on tour wanted to be booked by him or was jealous of someone who was.

RIP

 

Woah. That’s terrible. My heart goes out to his family and colleagues :(
