Drew Glackin RIP

01/10/2008
.
(PR) Drew Glackin, instrumentalist and bassist for The Silos passed away suddenly on Saturday, January 5th. According to his band, he was unaware of an overactive thyroid condition that led to severe heart damage. He was surrounded by family and friends during his final days.

His bandmates had this to say, "Drew was adored around the world and his larger than life spirit and contagious jovial energy touched everyone he met, everywhere he went. He was a musician of the highest talent and made his mark in countless bands, record albums, and many thousands of live performances. He will be sorely missed and the memories of his music, his great humor, and his magnanimous generosity of spirit and love will be with us forever."

From Bloodshot Records' Rob Miller: "The Bloodshot family and the music community in general is poorer, and less fun, with Drew's untimely and unexpected death.
Drew liked having a good time and he loved making sure those around him were having a good time, too. I will sorely miss getting caught up in his joyful slipstream whenever and wherever our paths would cross."

There are sites where photos and stories about Drew can be posted – please visit drewglackin.com, drewglackin.blogspot.com, and myspace.com/drewglackin.

A fund has been set up in Drew's name to help with funeral costs.
