I don't know if anyone else has read the news, rather it be on blabbermouth or anywhere else it has been posted, but Poison Idea guitarist Pig Champion died in his home on this past Monday night. I knew there was a reason I couldn't fall asleep that night.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I really love everything I've heard from Poison Idea, they were one of the best hardcore punk bands of the eighties into the nineties. Pig Champion (real name Thomas Roberts) was a major reason for this, and I'm very sad to see such a great talent go. RIP Pig Champion!
