What a bummer. Way too young.
I've got tickets for a Foo Fighter's show in June. I'm not all that pumped, at the moment. RIP

Very sad to hear. Was a huge Foo Fighters fan back in high school and college. Still enjoy some of the old stuff. Don't know yet what happened but the rock and roll lifestyle takes its toll. And the music world just lost Mark Lanegan. :(

The worst musician in Nirvana died back in the 90s.

Another OD?

In all likelihood. I read something where some official in Columbia or wherever it was said he had 10 different drugs in his system, but I have no idea how they would get toxicology results that quickly. maybe there was a blood draw or something. 50 year olds die of natural causes of course. But you have to suspect he partied too hearty.
Lotta coke in that area. REAL coke.

I only ask because he's done it before.
It seems your thought is probably correct.
Just found this. Sad that people with so much talent get caught in such dangerous behavior.

"The report showed he had at least 10 different psychoactive substances in his body including "THX (Marijuana), tricyclic antidepressants, benzodiazepines, and opioids, among others," the Attorney General’s Office in Colombia said in the document shared on Twitter."

Sad. Drug addiction has taken much from this world.
