Hell yeah I love this guy. Leon has lived much longer than most do with Progeria and he has done a lot of cool stuff in his life. I give him much respect.

guessing his death was drug related?

I was a fan or a maggot as they say, but I am willing to bet that it was heroin, unless he had some weird desease that no one knows about. Any hard core fans who know every movement of these dudes out there?

Sad that the guy's GameLive.com eulogy is what he does for a living rather than who he actually was. RIP Slipknot bassist guy.

RIP scary bassist dude with a fatal bad habit

Meant to put his name in the thread title but I screwed up and then of course I could not alter the topic after I posted.
