I heard on the radio today (WAAF, the number one station in the Northeast) that he said he was really hot and went into his trailer to cool off. He then may have collapsed from heat exhaustion, started vomiting, and choked to death on it. Pretty gross and sad. I never really liked Drowning Pool (although they were VERY popular among the girls at my school), but it's still sad. I also hope it wasn't drugs or alcohol. The media may say it was suicide, because he was into metal, and of course metal is violent, and blah blah blah. It obviously isn't suicide, and I just hope it wasn't his fault. Crazy, dying when your 30. This death may cause a riot toward heavy metal and rock's use of violent lyrics, like "let the bodies hit the floor", may be considered violent, and will cause censorship. I don't think so, I'm just pretty much blabbering on and on. But one thing I do know, is that it won't get NEARLY as much media attention as the deaths of Aalyia and Left Eye from TLC. I didn't hear anything about it on the news, and if there's nothing about it at the VMAs, I'll be pissed. Why does the media/MTV act like rock isn't popular? Like it's only pop and rap? The only good band nominated for this year is System Of A Down, and that's for Best Editing. Anyway, I send my condolenses to Dave Williams of Drowning Pool.
