For those of you who don't know, he was best known for the Punk anthem, "Sex and
Drugs and Rock and Roll". Yes, more than a lifestyle, it was a song.

The original spelling, "Dury" is correct. I checked my copy of the
Blockheads album, Lord Upminster.

nevertheless.

There was an item on the radio recently, commemorating Ludwig van's
birthday. It is now believed he died of lead poisoning, contracted from
crude plumbing or a lifetime of drinking leaded wine. Apparently they
added lead to wine to reduce the bitterness.
Bleah!

Dec. 20, 2000 | PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Rob Buck, lead guitarist for the rock
band 10,000 Maniacs, has died of complications from liver failure. He was
42.
Buck died Tuesday night at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, said
Blair Woods, the band's publicist.
Buck wrote the music for some of the band's best-known hits, including "Hey
Jack Kerouac,'' and "What's The Matter Here?''
"Rob was a great guitarist and very underrated,'' band member Dennis Drew
told the Buffalo News. "He had a big influence on other bands. This is a
very sad time for all of us.''
Buck, who was born in Jamestown, N.Y., started playing guitar at the age of
6 and decided to become a professional guitarist at 16 after seeing "The
Jimi Hendrix Story.'' He formed 10,000 Maniacs with Drew, Steven Gustafson,
John Lombardo and Natalie Merchant in 1981, taking their name from the 1964
horror film ''2,000 Maniacs.''
''10,000 Maniacs was one of the seminal bands that helped form the shape of
modern pop in the '90s,'' said Jack Barton, music director at radio station
WYEP in Pittsburgh.
Merchant left the band in 1993 for a solo career and was replaced by Mary
Ramsey. Buck and the band last performed Nov. 6 at a rally for Hillary
Rodham Clinton at Buffalo State College.
