RIP Dennis Irwin

UPDATE: You must read this post from Dennis Irwin's brother Dave, who was at the March 10 benefit concert that sadly became a memorial concert.

-----

He was just 56 years old. My sincerest condolences to Dennis's family and loved ones. Cancer fucking bites.

Read Ethan's tribute.
