In Remembrance: Arsonists Get All The Girls bassist Pat Mason (1986-2007)

Scott Heisel on 12/1/07 @ 12:29 PM

Santa Cruz, California-based metalcore band Arsonists Get All The Girls have confirmed the passing of their bassist, Pat Mason. Mason passed away in the early morning of November 30 due to currently unknown causes. The band released a statement on their blog, a portion of which is reprinted below:

"Pat was an amazing person and brother to all of us. It was his 21st birthday and we all got to see him at band practice. He then proceeded to go out to the bars. He went to sleep at a friend's house. We don't know the full details but when friends tried to wake him up this morning he didn't wake up. We could never trade him for the world and could never replace him. We will always love him and will always be in our hearts."

AGATG recently released their second album (and Century Media debut) The Game Of Life. They have already stated they will continue their band, as "that is what Pat would have wanted."

Yellowcard postpone tour

Due to a family emergency, "Ocean Avenue" rockers Yellowcard have postponed their tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The tour, in support of their latest release Paper Walls, has not been rescheduled thus far.

The band posted this message on their blog:

"Hello everyone. I have some unfortunate news. We have been planning on coming to Germany, Austria and Switzerland for a tour in January and were very excited about it. Unfortunately we are going to have to postpone the dates indefinitely. LP is very close with his Grandmother who raised him in Jacksonville, FL and her health is failing. He has asked us if he could take some time to be home with her over these next couple of months. We of course support him and know that this is a difficult time for him and his family. The tickets for the shows are fully refundable and we will let everyone know as soon as we have any information regarding the rescheduling of the tour. I hope this doesn't inconvenience anyone too much and we look forward to making this tour happen as soon as possible. Thank you."
