| Sum 41 Mourns Jerry Finn |
| |
|
Following the formal announcement of Jerry Finn's death by MTV, Sum 41 posted one of their rare completely serious blogs on MySpace yesterday to express their sadness about his passing and to send out their condolences.
"Jerry Finn, a good friend of the band passed away last week on Aug. 21st, 2008. We met Jerry in 2001 when he produced our album "All Killer No Filler". He was a great producer/engineer and just an all around great guy. Anyone who knew Jerry knew how awesome he was. He will be greatly missed and our condolences go out to his family and friends.
Jerry Finn - March 31, 1969 - August 21, 2008

Jerry Finn
March 31, 1969 - August 21, 2008
Nearly two weeks after being taken off life support and a previous announcement of his death, Mark Hoppus, Mike Fasano, and MTV have confirmed that "All Killer No Filler" producer Jerry Finn died on August 21st. Hoppus called Finn "one of [his] best friends" and "one of the most talented, funniest, coolest, smartest and honest people [he's] ever known."
Family friend Mike Fasano confirmed that he died at 5:25 am with a smile on his face, and that a memorial will be held within the next couple of months.
RIP Jerry. You will be missed. |

| Cone Loves Fans' Bass Love |
| |
|
| Not big or surprising news, but upon reading what TheresNoSolution's finest had to say in the forum about his bass parts on Underclass Hero and the arguments that surrounded them, Cone let me know that he was both amused and touched by the dedication, saying, verbatim, "Haha. Thanks. I love my fans!" |

| The B-Side Chronicles: NEWS! |
| |
|
As you probably know, Deryck's been mixing a new Sum 41 b-side with vocals from Cone for about 6 months now. Well, I (Phili) got a knack for investigation and went to the source (Cone) and got this promising response:
"Deryck is going to try and finish the b-side. I just gave him the last of the vocals to mix it."
So it turns out what's been slowing down the process is not a lack of effort on Deryck's part but a lack of vocals from Cone. Hopefully these new resources will kick the production of this b-side into high gear.
Cone also expressed an interest in hearing what TNS had to say about the bass parts on Underclass Hero and also once again confirmed that the songs for the Operation MD are going very well. |

This blog should've been posted ages ago, but your admins are a bit busy.
Cone posted this blog on August 7th:
"Hello everyone. Just wanted to update everyone on whats been going on with us. We finished our Underclass Hero Tour a few months ago and we have just been taking some time off and relaxing trying to get back into home life. Everyone is doing good. We want to thank all our fans for coming to the shows, buying Underclass Hero and supporting this band, you made the last 14 months a real good time for us. What are we doing now?
Well you can catch Steve on the Warped Tour from Aug. 6th-17th drumming for The Vandals, I (Cone) am going to start recording the next Operation MD album soon. You can go to www.myspace.com/theoperationmd for info. on that and Deryck, well since he writes the songs in Sum 41 he will be a busy guy for the next little while. We haven't planned when the next Sum 41 will come out but you guys will be the first know when stuff starts happening. Thanks again for all the support and we'll see you all soon!
Cone." |
