The Rev Ga Punya Catatan Buruk..!!!

"The Rev didn't have a bad bone in his body..."


Good Charlotte guitarist Benji Madden contacted Kerrang! to pay tribute to Avenged Sevenfold's drummer, Jimmy 'The Rev' Sullivan, who was found dead in his Huntington Beach home on December 28.

"This isn't something I have had to deal with a lot in my life, so I really don't know what to write," begins Benji. "Right now, it doesn't really feel real. [After Jimmy's service], we went to Shadows house and had a few drinks, telling our best Jimmy stories and we laughed until we cried. The Rev has more stories about him than any other person I know. Stories we couldn't tell in a church, stories that sound like exaggerations but they aren't. The Rev is rock 'n' roll through and through. One of the greats. One of those souls that comes along so rarely and just touches every single person around him. To know Jimmy is to love Jimmy. If you happen to have spent an evening out with The Rev on tour somewhere or at some get together or function, well, you were best friends for life after that. And Jimmy didn't forget it. It's not an act. I must have heard 50 people call Jimmy their best friend [during the service]. And they meant it. Loveable is a great word to describe Jimmy. Endearing. Kind hearted. Carefree. A fucking legend!

"I'm just talking about the kid who, as Shadows recalled, took communion in a 'Slayer Fucking Slayer' T-shirt when he was 12, dancing up the church aisle the whole way, making all the kids laugh. I'm talking about the guy that who stood up to his all time musical hero, for talking disrespectfully to his best friend's girl. He doesn't judge people. Rev didn't have a bad bone in his body. That quality... It is impossible to describe, he was just born with it. That's just The Rev.

"I took you for granted, Rev," he continues. "I took for granted being able to hang with you at the family get-togethers and holidays over the years. I took for granted watching you play drums. I took for granted our conversations. And fuck man, watching you play drums! You want to love music? Watch The Rev play drums. Listen to him play on a demo. Listen to him play on a record.

"Good Charlotte and A7X are more than just bands," says Benji. "We are family. We celebrate each other's lives together, holidays, weddings, kids being born. Successes and failures. Jimmy is at the heart and soul of all of it. He has taught me more then anyone I ever met in any church. And now you get to live forever, Jimmy. You are one of the greats.

"See you on the other side Rev," he concludes. "We love you forever."

"The Rev tidak mempunyai tulang buruk dalam tubuhnya ..."


Good Charlotte Benji Madden gitaris dihubungi Kerrang! untuk menghormati drummer Avenged Sevenfold, Jimmy "The Rev 'Sullivan, yang ditemukan tewas di Huntington Beach rumah pada 28 Desember.

"Ini bukan sesuatu yang saya harus berurusan dengan banyak hal dalam hidup saya, jadi saya benar-benar tidak tahu apa yang harus menulis," dimulai Benji. "Sekarang, itu tidak benar-benar merasa nyata. [Setelah Jimmy layanan], kami pergi ke rumah Shadows dan minum-minum, menceritakan kisah-kisah Jimmy terbaik kita dan kita tertawa sampai kita menangis. The Rev memiliki lebih banyak cerita tentang dirinya daripada orang lain Aku tahu. Cerita kami tidak tahu di gereja, cerita yang terdengar seperti membesar-besarkan tetapi mereka tidak. The Rev adalah rock 'n' roll lewat dan melalui. Salah satu yang hebat. Salah satu jiwa-jiwa yang datang bersama sangat jarang dan hanya menyentuh setiap orang di sekelilingnya. Untuk tahu Jimmy adalah cinta Jimmy. Jika Anda kebetulan menghabiskan malam dengan tur The Rev pada suatu tempat atau pada beberapa berkumpul atau fungsi, well, kau bersahabat seumur hidup sesudah itu. Dan Jimmy tidak melupakannya. Ini bukan sebuah tindakan. Aku pasti mendengar panggilan Jimmy 50 orang sahabat mereka [selama layanan]. Dan mereka sungguh-sungguh. loveable merupakan kata untuk menggambarkan Jimmy. endearing. Jenis hati. Carefree. Sebuah fucking legend!

"Saya hanya berbicara tentang anak yang, sebagai kenang Shadows, mengambil komuni di sebuah 'Fucking Slayer Slayer' T-shirt ketika ia berumur 12, menari menyusuri lorong gereja sepanjang jalan, membuat semua anak tertawa. Aku berbicara tentang orang yang yang berdiri sampai ke musik pahlawan sepanjang masa, untuk berbicara tidak hormat kepada gadis sahabatnya. Dia tidak menilai orang. Rev tidak mempunyai tulang buruk dalam tubuh. Kualitas ... Inilah mustahil untuk menjelaskan, ia baru saja terlahir dengan itu. Itu hanya Pendeta

"Aku mengambil Anda taken for granted, Wahyu," ia melanjutkan. "Saya menerima begitu saja bisa bergaul dengan Anda di kumpul-kumpul keluarga dan hari libur selama bertahun-tahun. Saya menerima begitu saja menonton Anda bermain drum. Aku menerima begitu saja percakapan kami. Dan fuck manusia, mengawasi Anda bermain drum! Anda ingin untuk mencintai musik? Watch The Rev bermain drum. Dengarkan dia bermain di demo. Dengarkan dia bermain pada rekaman.

"Good Charlotte dan A7X lebih dari sekedar band," kata Benji. "Kami adalah keluarga. Kami merayakan hidup saling bersama, liburan, pernikahan, anak-anak dilahirkan. Keberhasilan dan kegagalan. Jimmy adalah jantung dan jiwa dari semua itu. Dia telah mengajarkan saya lebih dari siapa pun yang pernah saya temui dalam gereja. Dan sekarang Anda bisa hidup selamanya, Jimmy. Anda adalah salah satu yang hebat.

"Sampai jumpa di sisi lain Rev," ia menyimpulkan. "Kami cinta padamu selamanya."
