So I heard the news from his wife a number of days ago about an "infection & aputation" & thought "diabetic".
Though it was unclear to me (& the public.) at the time..
So..... Digging I found this "cynical" piece by the interviewer & the musicians wife. (Thanks Facebook.)
He's quite big on the Metal scene..

Insurance? Personally I don't think he was entirely honest about his "business" abroad... Trust me when I say he wasn't "loaded" but lucky to make ends meet with what he did. He's a musician. (Personally? The "day job" is more solid. I do both..)
Yep, I actually toured on the circuit with him & met him backstage a few times. Ironically? He also did a JDRF "benefit gig" a while back...

Sad news. But I looked like it all caught up with him.... Talented. But I felt he struggled.
Even his wife don't seem to have a clue???

Can't say I was a big fan of the band but am sad to hear the news.

I'm not a massive fan. But I do find it straingly tragic.
