All of the legal documents from his adult lifetime in metal have a birthdate about ten years later than the one on his birth certificate. |

Holy crap, I can't get this through my mind. My brain doesn't want to process or accept it! 
Is it true? Is it true? I've read it earlier from Metalinsider and googled a few sites that confirmed it. 
I'm so bummed! I thought he was recovering from his fight with the dragon.
I decided to post this here cause he was a bassist in his former band, Ronnie and the Redcaps. 
Edit: There's a source saying he's still alive although he's in the hospital right now. THANK GOD! http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/bla...sitemID=140115
