It was a pleasure meeting you and thank you for signing my leg at your show. It has been tattooed on and will now always be a part with me. DK has always been a favorite band of mine and I have to say when the news hit me of your passing I broke down and cried. It made me feel old and reminded me to always smile about how life can be full of great memories. I really hope the DK continues to play. I plan to frame your book you signed to me. Godspeed my friend.

On my 12th Birthday, I got my first skateboard and my first Punk Rock album The Dead Kennedys “Frankenchrist” and it was what ignited my love of Punk to this day at age 50, with the Kennedy’s still being my all time favorite band. I still listen to them quite often. The world has lost an amazing talent. Rest East Darren. Your contribution to Punk Rock and being the beat to the soundtrack of my youth and formative years can never be understated.
