hideaki sekiguchi dead at 38

One thing you can always count on is people dying. Wild Zero is just about the coolest awful movie this side of Ed Wood. I mean a Japanese rock band battles zombies. C'mon. That's gold. You wish you'd thought of it first. One viewing rendered that band, Guitar Wolf, as one of my heroes. Today, I found out one of said heroes has fallen. Hideaki Sekiguchi, aka Billy, bass player for Guitar Wolf had cool hair and was clearly too rock 'n' roll for this world. He died of an apparent heart attack at the age of 38 and is now slaying zombies in the kingdom of heaven...one would hope anyway.
