Great band, sorry to see he died.

Such a bummer to hear of this. Much fine music from a talented singer!

If you are a fan of Boston and Brad Delp in particular, you should pick up the Album RTZ: Return To Zero. It's by Brad Delp and another member of Boston and sounds about as close to the original albums as you can get.

He was playing with a band called BeatleJuice which he started years ago as somewhat of a hobby. They did shows with all beatles music.
A couple of years ago, I went to see them in Derry NH (he lived in the next town over).
It was a great show.
The show was for a benefit, so they had a silent auction before the show. When we were leaving, my wife said she had to pick something up. Turned out she bought a guitar for me and they bought me up to the stage to meet him and he autographed it.
he was very down to earth and seemed like decent guy.

I was shocked to hear the news last night.

lol, i really had no idea how to type the last part of that verse.... well done!

I was listening to that song today and thought of the singer passing away. Such a great tune.

I was shocked to hear today that it was suicide...people with so much talent off themselves while people who have no control on their health die of cancers etc....such a shame

No one said why he did it. Maybe he did have cancer or some other disease and wanted to end the pain?

Many rockouts to Boston back in the day :beer:

Oh heck ya...Boston Don't Look back tour happened through the bay Area for an appearance at a Day On The Green! I will never forget that show. A Couple days listening to Boston tunes and I definitely have had a few lumps in my throat thinking of the loss to rock music.
