God, that scares me so much. That people who are living what I would consider to be the dream life, creating and traveling around and being surrounded by great, supportive creative people, still find reason enough to kill themselves.
Listening to Dusk right now and it's making me feel sad. I still love the music but I feel so empty knowing Bill Doss is gone.

I actually re-wondered a few weeks ago and found that cause of death still wasn't released.
someone on reddit claimed to be one of the EMT's that responded to the call that night.

"I had a chance to speak with Bill on April 2nd of last year as part of an interview slated for an Austin Psych Fest mini-zine that sadly never made it to print. I found it among some unpublished conversations in my voice recorder, and decided it should be shared in remembrance of one of our heroes."

I was kind of sad when I first saw that this thing existed, but actually the interview made me smile. You can just tell how wonderful and creative and giving he was, and it's really great that he and Will mended things.
