welcome to the vip list fag!

[Dr. Gonzo]

I'm sure the other 15 members of the band will have to learn how to get one without him.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Sucks. I enjoyed Slipknot. He left behind a girlfriend and what was to be his first child that was 7 months in the womb. RIP Paul ):.

[BruceBowenFan]

sad to hear to hear this, pretty good bassist to.

[Stringer_Bell]

Being a founding member and bassist in a band formed in 1995, when he wasn't even formally taught to play bass and used odd tunings, is something that I think was worthy of mention and some respect. I blasted his music in middle school and by most accounts he seemed like a really chill dude even though it seems he had some personal problems. He did a good job with what he had, that's all anyone can do. Really strange sounding death, hope his family and friends and fans find closure.

I'm really starting to believe this "deaths happen in 3s" thing.. Lima, Murphy's Husband, and this guy all in 24 hrs.

[BRHornet45]

sons and they want to blame rap music for what's wrong with these white kids today ...

[Drachen]

@ BRHornet: Who? That is so passe. No one has really been doing that since the late 80's to mid 90's, where you been?

[Shaolin-Style]

That sucks. Not that I like the band.

Saw some car in the park the other day with Slipknot written across the side of it. Thought it was ugly as hell.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Needle in his arm. Etc.

Further proof money doesn't bring happiness.
