Sounds like a bizarre accident.

Was a great drummer, RIP.

holy balls. great drummer, yeah. played with a lot of bands, including !!! and LCD i think.

also juan maclean?

horrible news. yeah he was in !!!, LCD, Maserati, etc. I saw him play at my high school's powder puff football game when I was 14, in a band called the Martians. RIP.

do we know for sure? the video doesn't mention the name of the deceased and I can't find news of this on any of his band's sites

touching memorial from Henry Owings

Pitchfork: R.I.P. Jerry Fuchs, Drummer for !!!, Juan Maclean, Maserati, Turing Machine

lol @ that second video, esp. MIDI arms

rip dude.

weird didn't see this yesterday. let me repost a couple things:

JF was in one of the greatly greatest great unheard bands of the 90s (vineland) as well as the very first band recorded by the DFA proper (turing machine).

a horrible, horrible tragedy... fuck.

the first time i ever heard any production by the dfa was the very seldom heard record a new machine for living by turing machine (featuring my (and hstencil's?) dream lineup off ex-PITCHBLENDE members: justin chearno and scott desimon with gehrard fuchs of VINELAND). [search: "flip-book oscilloscope"].

but yeah, i think it's one of the earliest dfa's productions and it is neither disco nor punk... and to think, at the time, that the rapture were just some gravity records band from san francisco and !!! were dirty smelly hippies from sacramento.

my friend Chris turned me on to Turing Machine, they were really good

this is terrible. I kept seeing this thread but didn't realize who he was until I read the New York Times this morning

this is fucked. i checked out some maserati clips, he seems like a really good drummer.

i have turing machine stuff as well as a demo cdr

we're all totally stunned and shocked here. we lost a dear friend sunday morning, and we're devastated. jerry, drummer for turing machine, the juan maclean, !!!, maserati and 10,000 other lucky bands also played drums with LCD for some of the first LP tour, but that doesn't matter. jerry was more a great friend than... anything, and that includes how truly incredible of a drummer he was. we miss him horribly.

Verryyy sad for his family and friends - tragic death. Saw 'im with !!! a couple of times and was mighty impressed.

This is a horrible, tragic story. RIP.

ugh just saw this, r.i.p.
