I just heard it myself. They're doing a tribute to Boston on 105.7 in Boston.

I read that he's been a vegetarian for over 30 years!
I can't think he died of a heart attack !

All I have heard tyhem say is that there is no sign of foul play and they are waiting for the coroner to finish the autopsy before they give any more detail.

Stunned doesn't even come close.
Childhood memories.
Boston is pretty much the first music I can ever remember hearing.
I was seven or eight.
Amberjack IV out of Lynn and WCOZ and "Star Wars" and the band "Boston".

I knew I should have left the computer off......

yeah, I guess he may have had some kind of heart problem that wasn't publicized? Either way, he was one of the greatest rock singers of all time, he will be missed. I was lucky enough to meet him during a performance of his Beatles tribute band "Beatlejuice", who were just amazing. He seemed like a such a nice guy and was very willing to talk to me (just a fan) between sets.

Terrible loss but Don't quit. Don't ever quit. EVER.
Long story.....
I lived in a condo with a bad ass Boston Skyline/Esplanade Fireworks/blender drinks on the balcony view for three years.
Stripers running through the river out back. 30 feet away.
Gave it up for an old friend that lost EVERYTHING to a house fire.
Property,pets(dogs) and his home. The one he grew up in.
Over a shared case of Bud one night
"Anyone that is stupid enough to do that;........ I lost everything, and I'm still here."
Tommy C. I'll never forget that one statement

He's got a nice house in Derry,NH now.
