Yeah, I've been reading everything I can about it. Like the epiphany he had while snorting coke while driving down the road and decided to switch to alcohol.
He certainly had some sort of pre-existing liver condition but I am still looking at something that gives concrete info about the spider bite.
The neurotoxin in the venom of some of them can be quite nasty. Letting one go for a matter of hours (much less days) can do major damage. Here, as I said, the Brown Recluse and Black Widow are the most common (with the BR EATING the BW). I've known people who have gone blind in an eye just because of shit luck. One crawling on the ceiling and dropped onto his face in the middle of the night. Yeah, REAL shit luck there.
Sure, Jeff had a pre-existing condition and letting a venomous spider bite go untreated for even hours just screwed him. Very sad no matter how you slice it.
Guido,actually Jeff Hennemans spider bite contributed to his liver failure he had...the combo was too much.

WOW! <==a proper interjection, DF. That is just too sad. Creepy at the same time. Died from a spider bite?! My house is full of brown recluse and I am well-aware of what damage they can do having both read and seen it in person. Not feeling the bite is typical as is necrosis of the surrounding tissue. DEATH, however, is not.
Yep, just saw the news myself. Came out of nowhere. R.I.P. Jeff [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Becks from Thursday, May 02, 2013 5:19:49 PM)

Thanks for posting the extended review as well. Once I get the tears of laughter out of my eyes, I might be able to read it properly.
One local reviewer likened his running about the stage to your grandmother running to catch the bus LMAO!

Nice full review, Becks! Good to hear you all had a great time.
Just got home from a weekend away at the first Black Sabbath concert in New Zealand since 1973.
The opening act was a local band named Shihad who I wasn't too fussed on seen as I have seen them live many times. They played a super short set of half an hour. They left the stage at 8pm and we were all settling in for a wait of maybe 45 minutes before BS came on. However a mere 20 minutes later the house lights dimmed and the sirens started up, and the band started to play their opening song, War Pigs, and the curtain that draped the front of the stage lifted.The people milling about buying merch and drinks etc suddenly came rushing in, I don't think anyone expected them on stage so soon! The whole crowd went mad and started to sing along. Ozzy had plenty of energy (for Ozzy) but we couldn't understand much of what he said LOL! The words I made out were 'fuckin' 'love ya' and 'are you having fun?'. While I really wish Bill Ward had been there, the drummer in his stead - Tommy Clufetos - was INSANELY talented and drummed like a monkey on speed. Tony Iommi was excellent as always, and Geezer Butler was great too.
The setlist was great and included two new songs, God is Dead? and End of the Beginning. Highlights for me were Fairies Wear Boots and Children of the Grave. There wasn't much stuffing about, the music came thick and fast and they played for just under two hours. Setlist:
War Pigs
Into The Void
Under The Sun
Snowblind
Electric Funeral
Black Sabbath
Behind The Wall of Sleep
N.I.B.
End of the Beginning
Fairies Wears Boots
Symptom of the Universe
Drum solo
Iron Man
God Is Dead?
Dirty Women
Children of the Grave
Encore: Paranoid

Thanks for the thinking of me. While I did run another 1/2 marathon a couple of weeks ago, it was closer to home. Not ONCE on that run did I ever think a bomb would go off. Who woulda thunk it?! All this time, the "powers that be" have been concentrating on sporting events like football and basketball games but, in retrospect, a marathon is such a soft target that you could have planted something MILES on the course. Impossible to protect when you have so many runners and such long distances.
Sad part was what I said. The people supporting the runners line the sidelines. All the majors have so many police, volunteers and med personnel there that it is almost impossible to leave the course, get onto it or leave a backpack on the road without someone being all over it. True vicitms were those who were NOT running. Haven't seen the news lately but I am sure the bystanders took the full blast(s) serving as insulation for the runners.
Thought of you when I first heard about it, glad to see you weren't there. Now every sporting event/ gathering of people will never be the same.

The timing of the bombs? Well into the heart of those "common" runners. Even worse as the runners themselves were more insulated. Unfortunately, by the onlookers / family / friends who were cheering them on at the finish!

I haven't voted in any of these polls but because I said "Priest vs. Dream Theater" shouldn't even be close I decided to look today.
Man...really???
I was partly right, it wasn't close.
I'm pretty sure no one here considers me a fanboy so I don't feel like one for saying this but man, I'm shocked, I never would have guessed that one.

At least you were able to catch them while they were doing their so-called last tour. I'm still kicking myself for not seeing the Scorpions on their last tour. Ah, well. Might as well buy one of their live DVDs and pretend.
Unless asked I'll try to make this my last post about Otep.
I'm glad I went to their show Tuesday night. I let many chances to see them go by the wayside.
Had I done it again I might not have gotten another chance. I found out the day of the show that
this was their last hurrah. They claim this is the final album and tour. Not a big deal to most I'm sure
but I really like this band. I've bought three of their cd's and downloaded a couple more. I've always
wanted to see them and would put them on a list of about five bands that I really want or wanted to see
and didn't. For me the show was pretty awesome too. (except for "One Eyed Doll")
