This is terrible news. So many great records, so many great bands, and seeing Hot Snakes in Cambridge in 2018 is quite possibly my all time best gig. RIP Rick

Was lucky to see Hot Snakes in about 2018 and he even made a joke about how old they were.

RIP man

Saw them in 2019 and they sounded great. You would not think the last two albums were recorded 14 years apart.

This is terrible news.

I only got into Hot Snakes when Jericho sirens was released but absolutely played all their stuff to death!
Apparently the new Hot Snakes record was nearly finished.
