Twisted Sister drummer, A.J. Pero has died of a heart attack.

:(

A.J. Pero, the drummer for the heavy-metal band Twisted Sister, died Friday. He was 55.

The band said Anthony Jude Pero died of an apparent heart attack while touring with Adrenaline Mob, a group with which he played in between engagements with Twisted Sister.

Twisted Sister guitarist Jay Jay French said Pero was on a tour bus Friday morning when Adrenaline Mob band members tried unsuccessfully to awaken him, then called an ambulance. He was taken to a hospital in Poughkeepsie, New York, where he was declared dead shortly after 11 a.m.

“His drive was the heart and soul of the band’s sound, the engine that drove us,” French said. “We lost a friend and a legend.”...

I was in shock at the news yesterday when I heard it. Only 55 years old.
He will be missed greatly.

55 is hardly old, bub.
 
That sucks. I was never a huge Twisted Sister, but Ive known Jay Jay French for years and met AJ once or twice. Too young.
