This shouldn’t slow the band down at all. As I recall, when the previous guitarist died they didn’t even cancel the ongoing tour. There isn’t all that much in the way of musical/vocal talent here, just a blood and guts stage show. There are probably 10,000 people that could quickly fill this role and the show can roll right along.

One of the most entertaining shows I ever went to... was at the Palladium in NYC. We rode in from Princeton Junction on NJ Transit... the ride back late that night was interesting... my buddy and I were completely covered in dried fake blood from the stage show.

I am going to use the most advanced linguistics I can summon, along with a vast vocabulary, to enunciate the following:

Dear Parents,

We’d like to have your children raised on music written by emotionally unstable individuals fixated on sex and violence.

Thanks,

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Brockie — a.k.a. Oderus Urungus — was found early Sunday morning dead, sitting upright in a chair at his Richmond, VA home.

We’re told foul play is not suspected ... and one law enforcement sources told us, “There were no drugs found, as far as I know.”

Another law enforcement source tells us it was not a suicide. No note was found. Brockie was found by his roommate.

This news breaks my heart. At 61, I’m probably the oldest GWAR fan alive. LOL! They played in a couple of clubs in the Raleigh area when I lived there and I never missed a show. Last time I got to experience a show was in Nashville in the ‘90s. I was always right up front and covered in “spew” when I left.

Now I’m going to have to break out one of my GWAR videos to watch.

RIP Dave/Oderus. You were definitely a unique dude and I loved ya for it.

Only saw them once. My wife’s friend was dating the (substitute) guitar player. GWAR hung out a lot with Ministry. I hear they did heroin a lot. Not saying that’s what happened but who knows.

He was the friend of a friend. She isn’t one to like that kind of music, but she is beside herself today - he was apparently a very kind, funny, nice man in person.

Rest in Peace, Gwar guy.
