I woke my wife up and told her "Jimmy's fucking dead". It was the only time I cried over for a non family member. He was a severely gifted dude and he left us way too soon. I still cry when I was Twenty Four Core's tribute. I found Oingo Boingo because of Jimmy dropping their name so much... Sorry if this is REALLY long winded, but I had to say it.
A fitting tribute to the greatest drummer of all time, anywhere, RIP, Jimmy.
