From www.goldstandardlabs.comWe are very saddened to announce that our dear friend Jeremy Michael Ward of THE MARS VOLTA and DE FACTO passed away from an apparent drug overdose at his home in Los Angeles on May 25, 2003. He was 27 years old. He and the rest of The Mars Volta had only just returned to L.A. for a week of rest between legs of their support tour with RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS. No further information is currently available.

Personally, I would be taking a break if my brother died.. But since their family is so music based, jim may feel differnently. Like Jeremy would have wanted him to go on touring.. but i know i would be so ef'd up I would be taking a break.. but thats me..

Yeah, that definately is very strange.. Especially since Cedric says he doesnt even talk to Jim(or anyone from sparta). So there must be some personality conflicts.. Well, maybe this tragedy will bring them all closer.. I imagine both Jim and Cedric/Omar will be at Jeremy's funeral. Maybe that will be there chance to bury the hatchet and leave the past behind...

wouldnt it be ironic if the reason ATD-I got back together was because Jeremy died? its a very sad thing, but having ATD-I back would be awesome.

I thought Cedric and Omar were really anti-drug?? Anyway, yeah that sucks, hope it doesn't affect Sparta touring, man.
