I read a probable drug overdose.

Among the drugs found by a urine toxicological test performed by officials were marijuana, opioids, tricyclic antidepressants and benzodiazepines, the statement said. An exact cause of death was not announced, and the National Institute of Forensic Medicine continues to investigate, the attorney general said.

So terribly sad.

Turning 50 in a few months myself so this hits closer to home.

I'm old school rock and I only know about 1 song from the Foo Fighters.  Here's a link to a drug report on his death.  If you did a toxicology report on me last night all you would find is Alka Seltzer.  I also had no chest pains.

His last performance...

i'd bet it was fentanyl in something he didn't even know about.

[bitflipper]

Quite likely. Seems like they're putting it in everything these days. Apparently you can make it in your garage with cheap ingredients from Walmart.

Tom Petty was felled by what he thought was a headache remedy.

I once wondered if I was gonna die after drinking a single rum 'n coke after a gig. I'd forgotten about the cold remedy I'd taken earlier, to clear my sinuses for singing.

Sheer dumb luck?

That's how I did it!
