jdgm Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Sad news.... Classic Rock band and solid drummer... RIP Totally agree. I saw them at least a couple of times. The only other band with 2 drummers in those days was the Allmans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonzoboy Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I guess that it's a fact of life these days,a lot of the stars we grew up idolizing are getting up in age and in some cases living a life of excess just catches up with them even if they cleaned up their act years before.It's still really sad to see another one go.
