Casey Calvert passed away november 24th. I've never got into this band but what got me is he was 26 years old. 26 FUCKIN YEARS OLD. such another sad day..

That happened to one of my favorite bands, BiPolar, last year. Their drummer died in his sleep. Probably the same thing that happened to him and Dave Williams.

That's why I don't worry about dying in the slightest. When it's your time, it's your time.

It is very sad. Zach has a blog about this on his myspace page.

Yeah I just heard about his death today.He was the same as as me.That sucks.I liked there music it was pretty good.

i hear he died of chronic asthma. that sucks.

Thanks guys. . . for all your emails and everything and this post. . .

Case was one of my best friends in this crazy music world that we live in . . he was the one guy you could call at 4 am . and he'd answer and talk to you no matter that the situation . . .

And im sure hes feeling all of the SD love from a better place . . im supposed to attend the funeral . . but as most know i dont take these things very well . .
i like to remember people the way they were. .

Thanks a million for all the love

-One Love-

sounds like he was a great guy and a blessing to this world. I understand the funeral thing. I beleive it is much better to celebrate a life with good memories and laughter then to mourn it with tears and pain. I know mourning is a natural thing and we all do it, but the good is what should be remembered in the end.
The 4 am phone conversations and the shoulder to cry on and the guy whose freindship meant the world to someone is what should remembered. We can hope he had charmed life and reaped all the benefits possible in the world. We can be greatful for the presence of such a wonder human being and know that he will be rewarded for being such.
My thoughts are with all who knew him even though I did not and I can only hope that this time of pain and reflection will not hurt too bad or last too long. My prayers and sorrows extended.

Hawthorne Heights guitarist Casey Calvert died of “acute combined effects of opiate, citalorpram and clonazepam intoxication” according to autopsy results released today. His death was ruled accidental, but brought on due to substance abuse. Citalopram is an antidepressant drug and clonazepam is a potent muscle relaxant and is used in cases of amphetamine overdoses to reverse some of the affects.
