DiazDude has passed away

For those of you who read the Gear Page often, you may have read Jim's posts under the name DiazDude. I have played in bands with Jim for over 24 years. Below is our press release on Jim's untimely death.......

It is with a heavy heart that I send the sad news that our cherished guitar player Jim Henry passed away Monday, March 16th. For those of you who came to our shows and saw the band play, Jim was our soul and centerpiece who will be missed forever more. The world has lost another great talent and a friend..........R.I.P Jim

Russ - bass player from

My condolences. He was too young, indeed. Just 2 days ago he posted a similar message on a thread about another deceased TGP member.
