Nitzer Ebb was one of the first industrial bands I got into when a good friend gave me a bunch of burnt CDs. Sad to hear but I guess he's had health problems for a couple years now.
I remember the last time I saw him, and IIRC he was touring with his kid. Not playing the same venue but they were just traveling together to save on costs.

Nothing went according to plan today and yet everything today was positively invaluable. Interactions with family and neighbors, donations to a drifter, talking with business owners, well-being of the fur babies and feral furs and now eating some good food with my favorite drink.
It's amazing all the life you can live in such a short time...in this case, the span of a missed doctor's appointment.
