From Les Claypool's Facebook page:

Hello everyone,

I am sad to report that my little nephew Matthew Pierce who has come to be known as Baby Matthew has passed on from complications related to his more than two year struggle with infant's leukemia. He passed this evening (Friday, February 8 ) just after 7pm pacific time at St. Jude's Hospital in Memphis Tennessee.

My heart aches for my Brother Ron, his wife Aimee and his kids Isaiah, Noah and Lilly. It has been an extraordinarily tough road for my Bro and his family and I want to thank everyone that has reached out to help them over the past couple years. The amount of support they have received has been phenomenal and very touching.

Matthew was a tough little guy who beat the odds for much longer than anyone every thought. Because of him and his tenacious struggle, there has been more knowledge accumulated in the procedures of how to treat Infant's Leukemia and the potential for survival is that much greater. Even though he was just a tot, he has done a great service to those future children that may be misfortunate enough to contract this mysterious and deadly disease.

Thank you all once again for your kind thoughts and generosity.

Les Claypool


Very sad...

Quite sad, indeed....heard that Wilco is very ill and possibly dying.

This happened a week or two ago, but the last surviving Andrews Sister (Might be Patty) passed away at aged 94. Now the three of you can harmonize again.

I've got the first album by DC5 with the plastic wrapper still on it!

I would say El Bummo ect,but PJ don't seem to like that expression.Why I haven't a clue,so I haven't said that again.I just want to get along without people telling me what I say is crap or "it's getting old" or for any reason they don't like my "mantra" which is just something that evolved.Fucking haters! Not anyone's bizz,dig? I'm getting an itchy *ignore* finger! I like arkays signature,"don't be stupid unless you want to." :evil:

I'm going to guess that he's the My Bonnie guy that the Beatles played with.
