David McComb
    (1962-1999)

We are very sad to announce the death of DAVID MCCOMB,
singer, guitarist and songwriter of the Triffids.
Taken from a Usenet message of Graham Lee, former member of the Triffids  :
"On Saturday 30th January David was involved in a car accident.  He was not badly injured but spent the night
in St Vincents Hospital. He was released on Sunday and went home to recuperate.  On Tuesday (02/02/99) at about 6pm
he died suddenly.  Everyone who knew Dave either personally or through his music will always remember him.  He is sadly missed."
