VIDEO CLIP OF THE WEEK: GRANDADDY:
'NOW IT'S ON'
Less than a month ago I went to see Grandaddy live at The Roundhouse in Camden. Last week, I posted my live review of said gig. This morning I awoke to hear the awful news that bassist and founder member Kevin Garcia had passed away at the shockingly young age of 41 after suffering a massive stroke. Terribly sad of course, and made all the more poignant due to the memory I have - just 4 short weeks ago - of the man grooving away on his bass behind Jason Lytle on the Roundhouse stage whilst wearing a massive grin and looking like he was having the time of his life. Here at No Static At All I send my condolences to his wife and family and also to the rest of the Grandaddy guys.
Here is my own small tribute, a clip of the band giving it their all on Letterman some years ago.
RIP KEVIN GARCIA.
