Curt McGirt Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) Fuck, man... John Kezdy died. Say what you want about him going into law after being in a punk band, or some of his stupid opinions, he was a real motherfucker. And his group was the best Chicago had to offer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77lW-lEZCyM&ab_channel=LoboAttitudine EDIT: This is really shitty -- he died because he was on his bike and he hit an Amazon truck that illegally parked in the bike lane.

Travis Sheldon Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 I think Ginn styled some of his playing off Becerra. But, I take great joy in shitting on Ginn's legacy with the bad stuff that's come out about him over time. So I'm not an impartial observer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coletti Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 (edited) So I didn't see it mentioned on here, and I don't have social media, but Rick Froburg, vocalist of Pitchfork, Drive Like Jehu, and Hot Snakes, passed away at the end of June/beginning of July (seeing different dates, just found out myself so...). Dude was only 55 and apparently went by natural causes, an unidentified heart disease Edited September 6, 2023 by Coletti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it is not comforting to read about good men who die of natural causes that are the same age as I am. RIP Rick Froburg.

Teflon Turtle Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) This one's a bummer. As a teenager, when I first starting trying to find my own way in developing my personal taste in music vs. just relying on friends to tell me what was good, The Pogues were one of the first bands I explored.

Curt McGirt Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVznnoptsmM&ab_channel=yojimbo1978 That was my introduction to the Pogues. Weird, being that I was already long involved in the punk scene and people had turned me on to all kinds of different music, from early Tom Waits to the Smiths and others, stuff that I'd probably never have gone out of my way to find otherwise -- like the Pogues. A superhuman performer and a legend. He is counted, indeed. RIP 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
