RIP Chi Cheng

Post by behndy »

after his car accident and coma and partial recovery Chi Cheng has just passed away. i got to meet him a few times, he seemed like a normal, good guy. sad that he died so young.

when he was active with Deftones they were making some of my favorite songs.

he'll be missed and i hope he's at peace now.

WOW, what a long drawn-out way to go. At least he is free, RIP. I saw them in 99 too. Great show.

i'm VERY lucky that we played with them a few times. insanely good, super intimidating to play with if they weren't all so nice.

RIP Chi. I saw you guys twice in concert and you blew my mind. One of my favorite bassists out of the modern-ish bands.

Definitely an influence on me. Saw them at Ozzfest in 99,...had it not been an afternoon show on the main stage; it probably would have been better sounding,...but it was cool to see them nonetheless. RIP Chi Cheng.

That sucks! I saw them in 98 and again during Oz Fest. Amazing band and bassist. He's always been one of my main influences in music. I'm sad now. Rest in peace.
