Chuck Biscuits almost certainly not dead
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 30 October 2009
One might have thought that in the uber-communication age, where nowhere on earth is more than a few seconds away in terms of contact, Mark Twain’s famous “rumours of my death” quote may have no need for being quoted, confirmation or denial of any new false death rumours being surely on tap. And yet the communication network that should provide such immediate clarification seems to spend more time starting the death rumours in the first place, meaning Twain’s “are much exaggerated” line can be used by new people on a more or less on a weekly basis.
Anyway, there has been much confusion online overnight regarding Chuck Biscuits, the original drummer with metallers Danzig, a former member of DOA, and one time Black Flag collaborator. Reports of his death circulated yesterday afternoon, with claims he had died on 24 Oct after losing a long battle with throat cancer. It now seems certain the reports are untrue.
