Thanks to Boo for the link to the unfortunate news of Nikki Sudden's death. He passed through here several times and even played AthFest last year with a TDJer or two. For those not familiar, here's his site.

UPDATE: The Reuters story is here. Ongoing commentary also on his MySpace page including this quote that someone posted:

"One of the great things about being a musician is knowing you don't have to retire. I have a friend that will retire in 10 years because he's 55. I'll never have to do that. I can play until the day I die. I can't think of a better way to spend your life. If you make yourself happy and you make other people happy. What's more important? Your soul. I can't think of anything better to do." -Nikki Sudden

Our best to his family and friends.
