What a loss. The entire world seems to be grieving all together. Such a legend cut down far far too soon. Although It’s comforting to know that he’ll be close by whenever we tune in to any foos track. He was the definition of a legend.

In June 2015, I went to my first FF Show in Hamburg.
After their hard rocking show, their roadie threw used drum sticks intor the audience and I catched one.
I have never seen a more worn out and rocked piece of wood. I still can hear it and smell the sweat.
