mrc Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 man, reading this news this morning hurt a lot. Still remember the first time i saw them live when they toured with 10 Foot Pole back in 1994-95ish (This i was 14-15 years old). the making friends cd will always bring back some of my most fond memories from my youth. beyond bummed.

tittus Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Let's make today "International You (Tony Sly) Day"! Listening to this song(and most) is hard. Feels like Home is a killer. This really is the worst news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudsoncomplex Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I'm not wanting to spread any rumours or anything, but I saw No Use last month, and Tony said he was taking pain killers for his back issues. He was also drinking. I wouldn't be surprised if he od'd on a mix of booze and pills. Such a bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I'm not wanting to spread any rumours or anything, but I saw No Use last month, and Tony said he was taking pain killers for his back issues. He was also drinking. I wouldn't be surprised if he od'd on a mix of booze and pills. Such a bummer. Yea I was kinda thinking the same thing. Someone in this thread posted a link to an interview with him and in that he said something about taking some pills for his back, having a few drinks and getting up on stage to play. Sounds like this might have been a possible accidental OD. Regardless of what happened this is so sad. Ive been so bummed out all day.

steviex2shoes Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I was at Warped Tour all day today, and saw later in the day the explosion of Tweets about this. Honestly I was holding back tears when I heard this. I've never really had an emotional reaction for when other musicians in the past had died, but something really struck me with the news of Tony dying. I loved his music and its sad we won't get anymore of it, but I celebrate everything he's released and just hope his family gets some much needed strength in this time.

adamlikesmusic Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Huge bummer. I was finally going to get the chance to see NUFAN a couple years ago, and then the show was cancelled the night before. Tony put on some good shows when I saw him solo, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanRees Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Fat posted this last night Hey Tony, thanks for giving us One More Song. We’ll miss you. I listened to NUFAN and Tony's acoustic stuff all day yesterday but that was a little rough to hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mclz Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I remember getting leche con carne like 13 years ago cause I liked the album cover and it was in the punk section at the wall in the mall and listening to soulmate over and over .
