We recently said farewell to Wayne Static, in the only way possible, with a live rock show. Friends of Wayne gathered at the Whiskey A Go-Go to say "goodbye" with a memorial concert.

Snot, members of Coal Chamber, System of a Down and Dope as well as Static's band will be on hand to pay tribute to the late Static-X frontman.

Revolver claim to have conducted Wayne Static's final interview, in which he said, "I’m going to keep doing what I’m doing ’til I’m dead."

Like many figures in the rock and metal world, Jacoby Shaddix was quick to react to the shocking news that Wayne Statichad passed away over the weekend.

Wayne Static had been a user of hard drugs in the past, so many assumed an overdose was the cause of Static's sudden death.

A press release sent out on Sunday (Nov. 2) by Wayne Static's publicist states that the 48-year-old lead singer of Static-X died in his sleep, and that drugs were not involved. Apparently he and his wife Tery Wray were set to leave for their next tour on Halloween night, but decided to wait and leave Saturday morning...

Many rock and metal musicians have reacted to the death of Wayne Static via social media.

We're shocked and saddened to report that Wayne Static has died at the age of 48.

Another ticket stub from the Wilma added to the collection! Here are our photos from Friday's Wayne Static show with OTEP, Dope, Smile Empty Soul and Thira.

When Wayne Static called in to my show this afternoon, I asked him about the song he recorded with Darryl 'DMC' McDaniels. He's a huge fan of how "Noise Revolution" turned out, and you can download the song on iTunes now. Check this out.  

Happy Concert Day to you! Wayne Static brings the Civil Unrest tour to Missoula tonight, and he was kind enough to call me on his way to town.

Last night, Closing Chapter let me get a good look at the Civil Unrest tour in Butte and all I can say is be prepared Missoula. Even though I will be seeing the same bands Friday night, I cannot wait!
