Former Weezer bassist Mikey Walsh was found dead in a hotel room in Chicago on 9 October of an apparent drug overdose. The rocker had predicted his own demise a couple of weeks previously on Twitter, posting: "Dreamt I died in Chicago next weekend (heart attack in my sleep). Need to write my will today. correction - the weekend after next."
Walsh joined Weezer in 1998 and left the band three years later after suffering a nervous breakdown and attempting suicide.
Weezer paid tribute to their former band-mate on their twitter page, posting: "We are shocked and deeply saddened to hear the awful news, our friend and fellow weez rocker @mikeywelsh71 has passed away. We love u Mikey."
