As a long time Dregs and T fan, I am really sad to hear about this. Thanks for sharing, I did not know. Fortunately, I got to see him play live more times than I can count. When Mark Parrish bowed out of the Dregs, he was an excellent replacement.
Thanks for all the great music Mr. Lavitz.
By the way for those who didn't get a chance to see him live, he can be seen in a re-formed Dregs here: ../album.asp?id=13779 - Sects, Dregs & Rock 'n' Roll
