RIP Casey Calvert

[Mike Money]

Guitarist/Screamer for Hawthorne Heights.


He died in his sleep last night... I'm not much of a fan, but they are really good at what they do and have some catchy tunes.


This sucks...

Wow, thats terrible. I'm not a huge fan of theirs, but I've heard enough of their stuff to be somewhat familiar with them.


What a loss...he couldn't be older than what, mid-20s?

The band stated he was fine before he went to bed and were sure he wasn't into anything illegal. At 26 I am curious what exactly happened. They found out right before they had soundcheck the next day.

All kinds of crap goes unnoticed....


I've known a few families who's 20 somethings just don't wake up....


Brain anuerisms, heart problems.... all kinds of stuff that no one notices until they find them dead one sunday morning.

Apparently they are from Middletown, Ohio which is like ten minutes from here, and I had never heard of them.

A guy I graduated with dropped dead playing a game of pickup basketball when he was like 24. Picture of health, never had any problems. It's sad when that kind of thing happens.

Holy cow. After posting, I started asking some questions around here. I'm a principal at the middle school here, and found out that his wife is a teacher at the high school. Terrible. The kids at the high school did a candle light vigil last night for him (and her).
