Rest in peace, John


Well like my words is what I'm seeing through my own eyes
A little vision of the truth in a world of lies
When it comes to coming off I like to get my fill
Well I got the skills....
I've got the skills to pay the bills!!! (RIP, my man MCA)

Frontal lobe dementia, that's horrible.

It makes me think back to April 2012, I wonder if Berry was suffering.

Mike and Adam were up there on that R&R HOF podium while their brothers were dying.



Long Burn The Fire. Rest In Peace Adam.

I got to meet him at a show in Long Island. He was in the VIP area with my friend and I. Really sweet dude. I got a chance to nerd out with him before the show. Too soon to go. RIP.

Always loved the photograph used in the Guardian article about John Berry. Sad news.


"A lot of record companies look at the numbers and they'll be like, 'Your first record sold 5 million and your second record sold only 800,000. What happened? You guys fell off, I think the band all feels that the record did really well. Most musicians I grew up playing music with would probably shoot me if I ever complained about selling 800,000 records."
