Pretty sad news. The opening guitar riff of "Walking on the Sun" is epic. Solid late-90s band.

Walking on the Sun is on my list of 90s favorites.

No transplant opportunity?

That’s sad.

That sucks. One of the bands from that era I really liked.

I actually met him, drove him to Frye's electronics store in the Dallas area some 10 years ago.

Good guy.

The opening of “Shrek” with “All Star” always puts a smile on my face, one of the first movies I enjoyed watching with my kids. We would sing that song together all the time.

So, no one gets transplants anymore? They only need part of someones liver to do one. Sometimes as little as 30%.

I was trying to understand how his mouth got smashed.   Then I thought, oh.   I don't know Smash Mouth from Shinola.

Y’all can mourn this man all you want but make no mistake that he and the rest of his bandmates despise you. All you have to do to confirm that is to check out the official Smash Mouth Twitter account. They are vile.

Wow, major shock this one. Though from what some here are saying, not so much. Way too young.

I just can’t imagine who who killed his liver.

Time to get right with God
