I haven't posted or read anything in a long, long time, and coming back I find that oc_ca_slash is gone but a7X_slashness still stands and I miss the slash and the funny moments. I know this might be illegal on the community, but given the circumstances I think it can be overloooked:
It's strange to think how band members can become your friends, but with their music they go through everything you go through and so when one of them passes away, it's like losing a close friend. When I found out from my friend that Jimmy had passed away I felt a pang of sadness like I haven't in a long time. He was one of the best drummers the world had ever seen and Avenged Sevenfold will never be the same without him, he was one of the founding members and he has been more than just a drummer for them; he's been a childhod friend and a brother. For anyone who bought the Avenged Sevenfold MVI, we all know the story of how he lived in a laundromatt for a while and kicked people out so he could watch cartoons and how he liked to terrorize people at school before leaving, it might sound off track, but that's who Jimmy was, and now all we'll have left are the pictures, DVD's and the music, but for everyone who knew him intimately they will have fond memories and the fortune of having been friends with such a person.
We are all lucky to have known of him and heard his music and to have partaken in a part of his life, the largest part, because as Avenged Sevenfold fans, we are all part of their lives just as much as they are to us, even if they don't know us individually.
May you rest in peace, Jimmy.
