 Re: Rest in peace Rab Never met the guy in person. (Almost met him at Wacken.) Seemed a good guy here on the BB.
Sad turn of events.

Re: Rest in peace Rab He always seemed like a fun and loving soul, who treated everyone kindly and with respect. My heart & thoughts go out to his friends, who are in fact his family as well, and I know this must be a really rough time for you. Hang in there for each other~~peace.

Re: Rest in peace Rab I was very sad to hear this today, but the saddest part was not being overly surprised. At every opportunity I had to see him or talk to him I asked how he was and told him to take better care of himself. The last time I heard from him he sounded happy and positive and of course welding his unorthodox but hysterical humor. He was a talented man with some interesting creativity coupled with a warm heart.
RIP Rab your a legend now.

Re: Rest in peace Rab Never met him, but my god did the Desto(can't spell it) stuff make me laugh and smile. Anyone with a sense of humor like that could only have been a wonderful man.
RIP

Re: Rest in peace Rab EYEBLISTER wrote: Rab your a legend now. You ain't kidding. For some reason, I did a Google search on him last night, and I was happily amazed at the immense number of people he touched; even if it was just over sharing a beer or two for ten minutes. What a legacy he led in such a short period of time. I have yet to come across anyone who truly did not like him. Even if they wanted to, his personality was so infectious that it seems impossible that they could.

Even if they wanted to, his personality was so infectious that it seems impossible that they could. the only people i can think of were the norwegian black metalers who threatened death upon him for Detsorgsekalf a few years back (and obviously those people didn't know him). but Rob seemed to fucking love that that was happening, and from what i recall, he was even pleasant to those guys, lol. that's what was so amazing about the guy, he was who he was and he didn't appear to get negative when negativity was thrust upon him. Rab was a truly good guy

Re: Rest in peace Rab R.I.P. Rab,and my sympathies to all who knew him & his family.I managed to meet him in September 2006 in Toronto at the Gigantour show.In fact,thinking back now,I think I saw him a few times in the week preceding that show,possibly at the Celtic Frost,Day of the Equinox, & Dragonforce gigs,too.That video from the Metal Cruise only confirmed my fleeting memories of him.I had no idea he was so young.Damn.

Re: Rest in peace Rab - Funeral Info In First Post I'm never sure what to say in these situations, even with those close to me who have passed. So most of the time I just don't say anything at all.
However, I think I would just like to say that my thoughts are with those who were close to Rab. This board will not be the same without him.
