RIP PAT MASON..we love you

We can't describe the pain and sorrow that we all are feeling right now. Last night/early this morning our bassist, Pat Mason, passed away. Pat was an amazing person and brother to all of us. It was his 21st birthday and we all got to see him at band practice. He then proceeded to go out to the bars. He went to sleep at a friend's house. We don't know the full details but when friends tried to wake him up this morning he didn't wake up. We could never trade him for the world and could never replace him. We will always love him and will always be in our hearts. We are going to continue with the band cause that is what Pat would have wanted. There will be a donation account set up soon for his family and possibly a local benefit show as well. Thanks for everyone for the support that the band has since the beginning. We love you all and Pat loves you all as well.


Another musician dead at a very young age... seems to becoming more and more common. :(

Dude was lacking common sense if he did o.d on booze. My 21s will be no where near the bars. Still, it sucks that this happened. Booze can kill people, stick to O Douls, like balls here.

Common sense tends to go out the window on your "legal" day, though. It's just as much your friends' job to keep you under control as it is your own, I'd say. And you really don't have to turn every comment into some unintentional advertisement for how incredibly gay you are.

He was having a 21st birthday so stfu. Who gives a damn how he died; he obviously just wanted to have fun. Sure, he took it too far but like Coke said it's his 21st birthday so something like that shouldn't be looked down like that.

RIP; this is starting to get to be almost too serious, with everyone dying

i wouldn't be so quick to pass judgment when the band doesn't even know how or why he died.

Hmm, I don't know the band, but it's still too bad.

Honestly Spat, you know that it was probably alcohol poisoning. Now that said, no one should be calling him a retard regardless.

Ok, on my 21st I went out and got shit-faced drunk but I mean c'mon... you really would have to be a bit idiotic to virtually drink yourself to death. It's not that I have no sympathy for his family and for this band, I'm just saying the guy was being an absolute idiot and made terrible choices which ultimately lead to his untimely death.

This really sucks. I liked this bands first release, it's really too bad. We should make a counter so we can keep track of how many its been. It's a shame.

It's sad he died, but if it was for something like overdosing on alcohol, then it was a pretty stupid way to die.
On a side note, Australia's legal drinking age is 18. I find it hard to fathom how crap it would be to wait until I'm 21 before I can legally go out and drink.

There is your cause of death right there. I'd bet all the money in my wallet on it.

....I got shitfaced on my 19th birthday (legal age in Ontario to drink) and managed to still exist. Sorry for being blunt, but I don't think anyone here can drive this point home enough:

When you drink a lot, you are responsible for yourself. Yes, his friends should probably have limited him at some point. But they didn't. I hate how this is supposed to be tragic because he was in a band that a few people know about. If I felt bad every time someone died (of their own volition, no less) I'd be miserable now... and now... and now.. and now.. Sucks he died. But it's not like he died fighting cancer, or fighting in Iraq. He died on a floor, because he drank too much.

If it turns out he died from some random ass cause that's not alcohol poisoning, I'll be very surprised. And if and when that happens, you can all rip into me as much as you please.

I drank 40 shots and two kegs on my 21st birthday. You just have to let out a good belch every 10 or so drinks and you'll be fine.

Regardless of how he died, it's still a horrible. Unfortunately, it's another musician that can be added to the list of people that have passed recently.

I didn't drink myself to death when I was legal (and that's years ago as I turned 16.)

Anyone on here who thinks he's a loser for drinking himself to death (if it was an alcohol induced death), your a bunch of hyprocrites. As if you have never drank yourself under the table before!

^ Actually, I have never done that and I'm 18. Sure, I've been slightly drunk before, but I know when the hell to stop. I don't let it get out of control. I've never even puked from being drunk because I know my limits. I have no sympathy for someone who drinks so much past their limit.

It may not be the cause of death so I will not condemn him yet, but I am pretty damn sure it was.

Same with eakflanderyof, 18, never gotten smashed. No respect for deaths like this. Notice how the article doesn't mention any obvious signs of death, like a gunshot or stab wound. No, he died sleeping, and there are not many ways to do that at the age of 21
