Jay Funk Dawg

Awful news, I am very moved by all the out pouring of emotions. Although I didn't know Jesse very well - I sense his spirit and memory will live long. Much love to you and your family Eric. My sister went through a 2 year fight with leukemia and it was a very hard and difficult time for my family. It was the reason I moved back to Toronto in 2004 from a happy life in Nova Scotia. It's a miracle that she is still alive - at the hospital there were very few survivors. Cancer is such an awful disease and I know way too many people who's families have been deeply affected. I'm very sorry to hear your loss, may Jesse live on in the music that made him so happy.

With Trey going for upwards of $100k US I wouldn't consider the 'promoter' guys the people who would set up Trey - we are music business people not drug dealers!

FOC deciding to quit and the network canceling the show seem to be two different things, although the same result.
