Any rock fans in the house? Sad news....

Sad to report but Brad Delp, lead singer of Boston, was found dead. He was only 55.

Boston had some great jams back in the day and some real wicked cover art. I'm listening to some of their stuff right now. Now, this is music!

My sympathies to you and Boston fans. Losing a hero is tough. I'm still sad of the loss of Syd Barrett this past year. I was never a huge Boston fan, but could definitely rock out to their music.

Yeah, my sister called and told me.
I wonder what the hell happened.
From all accounts, he wasn't your typical boozing, druggie rocker.
The band was pretty clean actually.
My sis wonders if it was a possible suicide.

we've been losing alot of great singers over the past few years I'm more of an R&B fan myself but there just some musicians that can cross all boundaries and Boston was a good group over the years...sorry to hear about the news

[sevenhooks]

More of a classic soul fan myself.
I'm actually pretty close to Gerald Levert's family so his recent passing was a real shock.

[HwangDi]

yeah G. Levert was one of the artists I was thinking of that passed recently, besides James Brown and some others

I'm still sad of the loss of Syd Barrett Was just talking about Syd the other day with a guy at work. If I was stuck on a desert isle and could only listen to one band, 'Pink' is it.

I was kinda shocked when I found out too. I was even more shocked to find out he committed suicide.
