Hate to hear that. Great band to see live. I wonder if they will continue ?

They did when Mike Houser died, so maybe so.

Their shows at Oak Mountain Amphitheatre in Pelham, Alabama were epic !

Was it an overdose?

Not what I’m hearing from someone close to the band. He had supposedly kicked pills, but not alcohol. His liver and kidneys shut down, presumably from years of alcohol abuse.

Spent a good portion of the 90’s chasing that band around, and pretty sad tonight.

Wow, had no idea...kind of lost touch with them after Houser died. Still love their music though.

Dude just never even seemed to pretend to give a frick about his body or health.

Sucks. I worked with his wife for a while at Uptown Lounge.
