re: mid-city pizza/banks st bar owner dies at 33

Heroin?

Drugs are bad for you

Please respect the man's privacy until the autopsy is released, if it ever is.

Festival of Pizza was great, hope it becomes an annual event. Rand would approve!

Rand's mother Becky and my wife have been friends for over 55 yrs...we attended the memorial at House of Blues and Festival of Pizza at Mid-City last nite. Very nice way to remember a young man that loved life and loved people..a word of caution to his friends remember that sometimes your actions have tragic consequences leaving your loved ones hurting for a long time....please think before risking your life and destroying the ones you leave behind !

Friends with good friends of his. You can tell he was a great dude by the turnout on Banks.

My friends played in his memory until NOPD shut them down...then they partied in BSB for another 48 hours or so.

It doesn't matter how you die, boys and girls, it is how you LIVE. This cat apparently fit a few lifetimes in his one by being bold; being good to his friends AND strangers; and taking some financial risks in the name of searching for a good time.

RIP.
