It’s weird how things come full circle. I remember posting to your site Carrie waaayyy back when they were touring, and we chatted a few times.

I feel devistated, not because I knew him closely, but more like because his music impacted me in such a personal way I can’t really comprehend. People will say how can a lyric like “I’ll do anything to make you cum’ be considered memoriable, but logically the shock of it made it so. And that was Pete. He was everything I’m not, and it’s why I respected him so much. Type O gave this fantastic voice to things you don’t say outloud but he wasn’t afraid to say, and in turn it gave more of us the balls to be more progressive even if it was in smalls ways.

I find myself mourning for the loss of someone with such amazing geinus, who was on the precpice of beginning anew, only to leave us too soon. It’s so much less about the music, but so much more about wow just when it started getting good for him he was gone.

So yea, I’m sad, I’m totally freaking bummed out. I won’t hear him live again. Type O won’t be a band anymore, but thank all that is holy Type O exsisted so we could know the genius of Pete. That really would have been the saddest thing of all.

Carrie, it is normal to feel the way u do about the loss of one of the GREATEST MEN to ever live. I, myself cried for hours after learning about the death of Peter and still cry over him. He will be missed by many.Our World Came Down the day he died. I never got the honor to meet him, but I have met Kenny,Johnny and Josh,but I feel that I knew Peter through his music.I will meet him on the other side. R.I.P. PETER!!!! I will love you to death.

I don’t know about the rest of you, but it’s starting to piss me off that an entire week has gone by, and we don’t even know if there was a funeral, where Petrus is buried (or if he was cremated)…. this is starting to become ridiculous.

Nobody knows ANYTHING?????

How did he die? Where was he? Who found him? What the hell happened??????

I got the opportunity to see Type O at the Charlotte Ozzfest show in 97. They were the only band I have ever seen (and my favorite to boot) that sounded perfect.. Dimebag came out to do the solo for Kill All the White People.

As I have never met any of the band, I cannot claim to know them, but just share my story of how “negative” music uplifted my soul. In 1998, I was dating a gal that ended up cheating on me. I drove 45 minutes to confront her about it, the whole way I had Unsuccessfully Coping With the Natural Beauty of Infidelity on loop.. I was jacked up mentally by the time I got there. No more whimpering, blithering idiot that would have only bowed down and groveled for a second chance… only strength, self confidence, and a middle finger pointed in her general direction when I saw her pathetic being. Someone else’s pain I could empathize with.

My first tattoo was of the hammergear logo. I carry with me the reminder every day that self worth and a stout soul can be found in the deepest agony and pain.

Thank You, Peter. And thank you, Type O Negative.

I would just like to say those who mourn Peter should not question why. Those of us fortunate enough to know him, whether personally or as a fan who refused to go home until autographs were signed and photos taken, have reason to grieve and be sad. Someone we love has been taken from us. I live in NY and have had the most wonderful luck to have had seen the band many times live and run into them in the most oddest of places (car washes and starbucks and sam ash). I will not lie and pretend I was closer than I was or that I was a friend. I was a fan who showed his ugly mug around enough and pushed and shoved his way up front to every show (sorry if i knocked u out of your spot) and managed to get backstage on a few occasions. I have my Peter stories like everyone else, and I will cherish them forever. So, If you weep, scream, punch the shit out of something or just sit in silent reflection. Do not question why. Our commitment and love and support for Peter and Type O have given us the right to grieve.

Rest In Peace Peter, Thanks For The Memories
You Will Never Be Forgotten

The majordomo list so long ago started me off with you (and the lovely Myron) and so many other friends, Carrie. In the past 2 days I’ve been thinking about the reasons I loved TON so much, and how I’ve changed as the years passed. I went from vehement defensiveness about their music to anyone who disagreed with my love for them to realizing just how tongue in cheek they really were, and how much they loved to laugh at themselves, just as much as sharing pain, and desire. We’ve matured (I hope) along with the boys, and it’s like losing a distant family member, really. I cried, like you, and will probably still tear up from time to time when I listen to those four dicks from Brooklyn…And I’m perfectly fine with that. I <3 you Carrie!
