i met him a few times at a festival i help with, near gore, virginia. he always seemed happy . . . but what do i know. keyboardist for the dead always steal a face of an untimely doom. if you kill yourself, you will eventually meet the god almighty, so say high to jerry when you get there. your music on the stages of the last three Wilderness Jams will stay with us forever. thank you Vince Welnick.

Which position is more cursed - keyboards for the Grateful Dead, or drummer for Spinal Tap.

What's odd is that the keyboardist curse carries over to dark star orchestra too. Their orig. keyboardist just died recently right after buying Brent's old rig.

i thought he died years ago. before jerry. if he did not, where has he been? what has he been doing?
-
Playing small solo gigs here and there. I don't think the other x-dead members were too fond of him.

Dozens of people spontaneously combust each year. It's just not really widely reported.

Keyboardist's Death Ruled Suicide
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Authorities in California are calling the death of Vince Welnick , the Grateful Dead's last keyboard player, a suicide. Welnick, 55, died Friday in Sonoma County. Police say an autopsy will be performed this week. He had been taken from his home in Forestville, Calif., to a hospital, where he died.
The Grateful Dead, which started in 1965 in San Francisco, retired its name and quit touring after lead guitarist Jerry Garcia died of a heart attack in 1995.
"The big thing about Vince was that he had that fearlessness to be able to go and just jump into our madness and just operate on it like it was a normal, everyday procedure," Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart recalled over the weekend.
