Sad news...we lost a forum member and friend

Post by kbrkr »

I don't know if any folks on this board know NuSkoolTone. His name was Wes and I was very good frieinds with him and his family.

Sadly, he passed away unexpectedly yesterday morning from a brain aneurysm. He was in his 40's. He was a great lover of the Kronos and a heavy giggin musician who I worked with over a 10 year period.

Please send positive thoughts and prayers to his family.

Very sorry to hear about this. I pray that Wes has found peace. I've seen his posts for about 10 years. He will be missed.

Very sad news, too young by half. Always seemed a very nice guy from posts on various forums. Give my best wishes to his family.

RIP NuSkoolTone.


Perhaps Korg could fulfill his setlist feature request as a posthumous recognition of sorts? :)

What terrible news. :(
We had some good discussions on gear and sounds, I think we had similar musical backgrounds/situations. He also gave me advice when my car (with gear) got stolen, it was only a few weeks after his got stolen. He was a very nice guy and from what I could make out, a gifted musician. Shocking to hear he just passed like that. Thank you for letting us know.
I'm so sorry, my thoughts are with his friends and family.
