RIP Armand Butts Crump III

04-02-2012, 02:01 AM

I don't know if any of you guys knew him, but my friend Armand passed away yesterday. He was Kerry King's guitar tech and he just finished touring with Guns 'N Roses. I've known Armand several years and I have done quite a few tours with him, including all the Big 4 dates in Europe. He was a good friend and one of the best techs I have ever known. I can't believe I will never again look stage left and see him playing air guitar while I line check Sleep riffs... He will be missed.

Very cool guy. He was on the Moser forum for a bit and we chatted on the phone about gear. He will be missed.

That is very sad man. I feel for your loss. That is way to young. If I may, what happened?

Just found out. Man. My deepest condolences to his family and friends. I only knew of 'ABC3'. Nothing but good things.
