What a bummer. Always liked Fountains of Wayne. Bright Future in Sales is one of my favorites.

What a loss..
Love each other, Motherfuckers!

RIP. :cry:

Loved Fountains of Wayne from the first moment I heard them and followed them pretty closely. Another great talent, gone. Another piece of me, gone.

And yeah, "Bright Future in Sales" is a favorite of mine too. Everyone knows a guy like that, nobody else described him quite as perfectly.
What used to be is gone and what ought to be ought not to be so hard
