Mr. Not Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Horrible way to go, really.The pro is that he died rocking. RIP 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) That's very sad news. :( His drumming was just incredible...Rust in Peace, Countdown to Extinction, and Youthanasia are among my all-time favourite metal albums of the 1990s.

Turbine Freight Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Nick made a huge contribution to Megadeth at the height of their powers. RIP. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Although not a Megadeth fan, very unfortunate. A very ironic 'spinal tap' ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthemic Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 onstage, wow. on the one hand he died doing what he loved! on the other, that's a heck of a way to ruin a gig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraroc Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Better than dying a slow, agonising death in a hospital, am I right? Anyway, RIP :( Edited May 22, 2016 by fraroc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat 3 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Very sad, indeed...my thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends and fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombstone Mountain Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 My favorite thrash drummer. He was sooooo good. If you're a Peart fan, listen to Menza. Gone too soon. His dad was a musician who recorded on the original Pink Panther soundtrack. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cygnus 2112 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 He died doing what he loved, playing music. On the other hand, he ruined a great night of music by dying during a gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 5-3992 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 There are worse ways to go, it's nice to go out doing what what you loved. But 51 is way too young 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormtron Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Best drummer Megadeth ever had. I always held out hope that the Rust-Cryptic lineup would reunite for just one tour at least. Dude was incredible. RIP. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 RIP He only just joined that band as the replacement for another guy who died suddenly. Sounds like that drummer spot is the kiss of death! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 I am in shock ... RIP Nick I was just looking at his youtube channel the other night - he posted this awhile back - he videoed a UFO with his kids In disbelief . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 RIP Got his intro to Rust In Peace going through my head since I read the news. Always hoped that lineup of Megadeth might reunite one day. The first time I saw Megadeth on the Youthanasia tour, I didn't know drums could be so thunderous live. The guy hit hard and was a hell of a drummer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
