Just moments after finding out about the tragic death of Pete Steele, I discovered that Vinnie of Pretty Boy Floyd had passed away over the Easter weekend.
Sad news on both deaths.
Can still vividly remember discovering both bands in my teens, and not far apart from each other. PBF in '91 and Type O in '92. Both acts seemed larger than life to a kid in his mid teens.
Pete Steele died from heart failure. Men of his stature rarely make old men. A sadly common cause of death in men his size.
Vinnie Chas died after a sudden and brief illness. That is all that is known about this at this time.
Rest In Peace Peter and Vinnie
