Very big shock.

He got an awesome metal'ish tone out of his Marshall's. (refering to when he was on Hey Hey It's Saturday a few years ago)

The really sad thing is, he was a very wild man in his younger years, but had turned that around, he had given up smoking and had become the fittest he ever been and was full of energy supposedly. I guess when your number is up, nothings going to stop it.

Aww, that's sad. He was a cool musician.
