Have some fucking class. Seriously, you fucking internet gossip vultures. Shut the fuck up with your bullshit speculations. If you don't already know, it's clearly none of your business.people need to respect the memory of the dead and the privacy of his family and friends. everything i've ever heard about the guy was that he was a really good guy. he's gone now, and regardless of why, his loved ones need to mourn, and that's all that matters. |

| _________________________________ [May 14,2008 6:04pm - anonny ""] it is obvious. Either he cowardly killed himself or he did too many drugs. end of story. he definately didn't die of old age. I'm dedicated band practice tonight to him though. RIP |

| ______________________________________ [May 14,2008 8:39pm - the_reverend ""] to powerkok: it's like when rusty died. no one said anything bad about him either. awesome in life and now awesome in death. i hope he got to see the meatmen before he left... though i doubt it cause if he had been there, i would have talked to him no doubt about it. he sometimes acted a little akward, but permanently had a beaming smile. |

| _______________________________ [May 14,2008 10:10pm - IanB ""] Kinslayer, or others, I am a family member, let me be the Martyr, I am Frado's only blood cousin, and probably the only family member that really understood him, and his demons. I was one of the pallbearer's at the service today. I am only here for the truth and some answers, we are desparate for closure. I'm speaking on behalf of my entire family..The Coriner told us it will be 6 month's for autopsy results, thats a long time to speculate. To everyone who supported Matt, Both yesterday at the wake, and today at the funeral it was amazing, and a wonderful tribute to Matt. I knew he touched lives, but I had no idea how far his arms reached.... Never let the memory of Frado Fade... Please PM me and share what you know, honestly. Thanks |
| _________________________________ [May 15,2008 4:07pm - azrock ""] I was at the wake and funeral also and am a family friend and the tribute to Matt was totally amazing..all of you who came to support the family and pay your last tributes to Matt and honor a fallen warrior will always be remembered...we don't know what happened or why and it really won't matter at this time it won't bring Matt back to us but you should all take a step back and realize that life is to short...be smart ..be safe...stay well and always remember your fellow warrior |
| ____________________________________ [May 15,2008 4:24pm - Kinslayer ""] I cant PM but if you wanna email me, go for it... |
| _________________________________ [May 15,2008 4:51pm - azrock ""] whats your email |
| ______________________________________ [May 15,2008 4:57pm - Stevey_Capri ""] frado was such an awesome dude. he will be greatly missed. |
| _______________________________________ [May 15,2008 5:03pm - y_ddraig_goch ""] it sucks that people would never take this time to notice a man until it is too late. Let this be a lesson to you to not take the lives of your loved ones too lightly, you never know when they will be gone. |

| ____________________________ [May 15,2008 5:06pm - . ""] Please be careful what "details" you pass on to strangers. Matt's immediate family knows how to get in touch with his roomates and close friends. They do not need to post on message boards to get information. |
| ____________________________________ [May 15,2008 5:39pm - Kinslayer ""] I agree. I'm not going to post my email... |

I was thinking nothing of posting here, cuz it was none of my business, nor did I give a shit, but when I see these fucking hypocrites saying shit like 'respect the dead', when I KNOW for a fact that these same fucking schmucks have disrespected the dead in the past, it got my goat. Im not sorry. Oh well. |

For example, I've composed at least 5 posts in my head making light of all of this, and only the BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWing that would ensue has prevented me from following through. 'Course, I didn't know the dude, sure he was a solid guy. But, yeah, welcome to the intertubes. |

| ______________________________________ [May 15,2008 7:38pm - goatcatalyst ""] sincere sympathies to all those who knew / were close to Matt |
| ____________________________________ [May 15,2008 7:49pm - RichHorror ""] haha and I am sorry for the phrase 'hand out room'. I am really stoned. |
| ________________________________________ [May 15,2008 7:51pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] RichHorror said:haha and I am sorry for the phrase 'hand out room'. I am really stoned. And here I had all kinds of fanciful ideas of what exactly handing out room would consist of. And whether or not I did, indeed, do said handing with Dimebag. |
| ______________________________________ [May 15,2008 8:28pm - dimeforever ""] Everyone here thought it would be funny to bash dimebag when he died and he was way cooler and a way better musician than this matt guy who od'ed. Shame on all of you. |

| ____________________________________ [May 15,2008 9:05pm - RichHorror ""] My point was that despite the fact his playing touched a lot of Pantera fans, it's not like any of you hung with the dude on the regular. Or were members of his family. That's all. |
| _________________________________ [May 15,2008 9:50pm - petailk ""] I love Matt. The only reason I give a shit how he died is that I just hope he didn't die because he thought he needed to. He hurt so much so many times, I just would rather think he was having a great time that day, and did more shit than his body could handle. |
| _______________________________ [May 15,2008 10:17pm - IanB ""] Kinslayer, I respect the fact that you don't want to share things with strangers, and your right...he's gone, and we can't do anything about it I get it...And your right I don't know Matts close friends or roomates, thats why I put this post up. I imagine you were at the services Kinslayer?...The only way I can think to prove myself is that I was a Pallbearer, and the guy with the Toddler at both the wake and funeral...he was the only toddler their, he definitly made himself known... and if this helps...we went to Lenzi's after the service on Weds, and had Lasagna, Chicken and meatballs. I know this is lame, but I am trying to let you know I am legitimate. Again I am just looking for some insight. Email me what you know.... Euphoric_1@yahoo.com, I know the truth will hurt, but I am okay with it. |

| ______________________________________ [May 16,2008 3:20am - the_reverend ""] I remember making fun of him ever time he got kicked out/quit a band. I think the second to last show, I saw him at, I made fun of him for being out of the unholy goat fucker for not having scary enough tattoos. Wished I knew he was in the knox. I would have made more of an effort to get to their show(s) at welfare. |

I told the door girl that if he showed up it would have been awesome but we lost someone way too early. RIP MATT. And bless everyones hearts that knew him. |

I think the second to last show, I saw him at, I made fun of him for being out of the unholy goat fucker for not having scary enough tattoos. Hehe... he did have some bad fuckin tattoos. But nah, more of a combination of him living way outside the city and not being able to make practice ever and being way too fucked up to play shows a few too many times (pretty sure it was the same for Trinity). He was talented as fuck and cool to hang out with, but not exactly the easiest person to play in a band with. Either way we all stayed good friends. As for all the respect vs. laughing at the dead, honestly Frado fuckin lived for tasteless jokes and dark humor. Nothing was off limits. I remember once he picked me up to go somewhere and was blasting a Skrewdriver CD with the windows down (and locked) through my not-very-white neighborhood in Jamaica Plain just to watch me squirm. I can pretty much guarantee he would appreciate people having a laugh at his expense more than all the somber remembrance stuff. |
