Just got email from the director of the nursing home band. One of the members died in an accident on the 14th of Aug. 39 years old, leaving behind a wife and two kids. Being a musician who recently started a "regular" job at a guitar manufacturer he had limited family benefits. He did a lot of studio work on the Guitar Hero franchise and played with various band including the "Reinventing Bonoduce" reality show. I shared the stage with him at the VA Hospital gig on the 8th of Aug, and here is a pic of us playing a nursing home in Highland Park on 23Jul. Crazy life.
