 Sad news for the world of music. Mike Starr, the original bassist from the legendary band Alice in Chains has sadly passed away at age 44.
Starr, who led a life marked by drug addiction, was found dead on Utah on Tuesday, at a home in Salt Lake City.  His body was found approximately at 1:45pm.

After the news started spreading we saw how fans and friends turned to Twitter to mourn the death of the rock star.  Among them were virtuoso drummer Mike Portnoy, Dane Cook and Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx.

“RIP Mike Starr. Another fallen Soldier to addiction… :( ”  Nikki Sixx

“RIP Mike Starr… I watched his struggle on Celebrity Rehab and had my fingers crossed for his recovery… this disease kills… sad stuff…”  Mike Portnoy

“Mike Starr may you RIP, Your music loves on forever.”  Dane Cook

The history of Mike Starr and drugs never ceased.  He was in “Celebrity Rehab” were he recounted how his addiction got him kicked out of the band he helped forming. Just last month he was arrested after being caught with six Xanax and six painkiller pills.

R.I.P. Mike!
