    A brilliant life lived, and a brilliant death died. I can only dream of going out like that. To die on your birthday surrounded by adoring fans and loving friends, during an encore of love light as the band full of incredibly passionate and brilliant musicians serenaded his soul out into the universe and onto the next part of his journey. What is dead never dies...Bruce left an indelible mark. Probably the most poetic and beautiful way to go. godspeed colonel.

    I was there. Thanks guys for putting together this piece, he was larger than life and we are all so crushed. But he left us doing what he loved.

    Bruce Hampton died at the feet of his little protégé, Brandon "Taz" Niederauer. I saw it on Dailymotion. He slowly knelt down and collapsed, with one arm over a monitor speaker. It was sad because the band played on, thinking he was joking around.

    No one helped because he moved several times periodically after his collapse. They thought he was ok. Fortunately He died on camera, on stage, doing what he loved.. Preforming with & in the presence of adoring fans & fellow musicians

    So surreal. There is a chance he could have been saved, but the band was oblivious to his stressed position as he lay dying on that monitor.

    Certeza que morreu feliz, fazendo o que gostava, no lugar que gostava, em cima do palco com sua guitarra.
