RIP. Gonna blast Vol 3

 

Whaaaaaaat

 

God that’s terrible.

 

His drumming on the track Three Nil is insane

 

Can’t load that article, but forgive me how did he pass?

 

Doesn’t specify the cause except that he died in his sleep

 

according to Pitchfork he "passed away peacefully in his sleep", that said he did quit Slipknot due to some sort of neurlogical disorder but this is just largely baseless speculation.

 

Ok thanks. Don’t like to ask that question usually, but he was one of my favorite drummers.

 

I totally get that. it's shocking, he was truly an incredibly gifted person.

 

Joey long had said that he never quit and the band kicked him out for being sick with transverse myelitis and not being able to play. The band in turn has never come clean about what happened on their end though and we probably will never know what truly happened with Joey and them.

 

Wonder if the band will make a statement

 

I would hope so, Joey was one of most visible members of the band aside from Corey and he straight up elevated that band to where they are now through his playing. They owe a lot to him.

 

damn thats scummy :(

 

That’s a shame. It was pretty recently I learned Danny’s son Rick played one of the police officers

 

ZZ Top’s Dusty Hill dies at age 72

Sad. :(

(Gray News) - Dusty Hill, bass player for the band ZZ Top, has died, the band announced Wednesday on Facebook. He was 72 years old.

 

Fuck, that one hurts. ZZ Top rules so hard.

 

Jesus.

 

damn

 

rip to one of the greats

 

I watched the Showtime Rotisserie infomercial more times as a kid than I would like to admit.

 

I just assumed he was dead already.... we joke in theh ouse with the line.. 'But wait, theres more.. order now and you get 2...'

 

yikes

 

RIP Dusty Hill

I know I haven't listened to much from ZZ Top outside of their 80s period but I genuinely love Eliminator and Afterburner, easily two of my favourites from that decade.
