This one was semi-personal so I never thought to post here. Though 52 (next week) I played bass in a couple bands with Detroit musicians 5-15 years older than I, from bands of the same era as SRC, in particular The Sillies. So I met many of these people through those contacts. I saw Gary play a couple times in the past decade but didn't know him apart from that. Still, us Detroit-area music scene folks are a bit of a contingent, and any losses from the ranks reverberate. RIP Gary Q.SirC [Edit: Y-Dub I think we have been putting prog rock stuff here (at least I have lol) http://www.deathlist.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=3234 And SRC was straight up rock n roll despite the song linked. No danger of confusing them with prog rock I don't believe].

Gary Quackenbush, guitarist with SRC, 68, pulmonary fibrosis. http://www.detroitnews.com/story/entertainment/music/2015/06/22/gary-quackenbush-guitarist-helped-power-detroits-src-dies/29129115/ Daystar: https://youtu.be/1EI2vYcsAho Edit: it's probably more prog rock but I don't know the thread for that.
