I can't believe he's gone still...

"Well, the Rev lived at my house for awhile and so I am probably closest to him, (as close as anyone can get). He was and is eccentric to a nearly dangerous level. I would guess his IQ to be in excess of 160 and he is possibly the finest and most natural musician I ever met." - Papa Gates

Maybe I haven't been his fan for the ten years he made music

I can't believe it, either. And to think, he's the reason that I met you. If it weren't for Jimmy, we wouldn't have ever gotten as close as we had. I got an a7x vinyl at Hot Topic today and right behind it was a Conor Oberst vinyl, and I just had to chuckle at the irony.

I'm still trying to comprehend this. I don't want to. I just have to thank him for what he's done.

Wow, that is ironic. It makes me smile though. Man, yesterday before I even knew I had to listen to all the songs he sung in for some reason. The world is one messed up place because someone like Jimmy could leave it so young.

I'm so glad you got me into Jimmy and A7X and that we became friends. It's meant so much to me. And Avenged has changed my life so much with their music and their personalities. More than I would have guessed one band could.

I'm with you, it seems wrong to just sit here and be sad that he's gone. I wish I could thank him too. I feel like I have to do something for him and to remember him. I'm considering writing a song, but I know it would fall so short.
