whys it that when brad nowel died not lots of people cried and held vigils and made specials about him? but with all respect thats due to him, kurt cobain- everyone was all like cryin and shit...obvious reasons are that they werent as much of a household name as nirvana...god damn politics

And why is it that when the guy from Drowning Pool died nobody gave a shit at all?

Popularity is a big thing, personality of the person is another, and circumstances of death really impact the response to it.

indeed...what did that guy die of? forgot...but anyway your right, they do...eh hem john lennon- was murdered by some freak, compare to john balushi- was doing speedball...like layne stailey from alice in chains died from n shit...and in this situation cobain killed himself and brad was just shooting up...i thought of that before, but in some ways suicide may be more looked down on then someone with a habit... its still fucked up though

I think it was because not as many people knew who Bradly was. I know of public schools in Corpus Christie TX that didn't have school the day he died. Sublime was pretty big there evidently. And, uh, no one gave a shit when that guy from Drowning Pool died cuz Drowning Pool sucked.

what did the drowning pool guy die of

As far as i know, he got alchohol poisoning, and drowned in his own vomit. Kind of makes ya think about the band name.

Because Sublime hadn't blown up nationally yet . His death as sad as it is may have helped garner more airplay , attention whatever for Sublime. R.I.P. Brad
