From Victory:
Bayside Drummer John Holohan Killed in Tragic Highway Accident.
There has been a tragic loss. Bayside was in a terrible accident this morning while driving to today’s concert on the “Never Sleep Again” Tour, which includes their friends and label mates Hawthorne Heights, Silverstein and Aiden. Their drummer John “Beatz” Holohan was killed when their van flipped after hitting a patch of ice outside of Cheyenne, WY. Their bass player Nick Ghanbarian was also seriously injured. Anthony and Jack have thankfully been discharged from the hospital. Members of the band’s crew also remain hospitalized.
Also, “Tonight’s show in Salt Lake City is cancelled. An announcement regarding the rest of the tour will be made later today.”
Donations to John’s family can be made via Paypal to the John Holohan Bayside Memorial Fund.
[thanks, Jay]

That is horrible. I pray that God will somehow give everyone that loved his strength to keep going.
A friend of mine recently died in a car accident and it is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to go through. Pray for his family and his friends.
