It was a privilege and an honor to collaborate with someone who had such an impressive heavy metal resume and someone who was just such a cool dude.

Talked to Shaun last month. He was intense, enthusiastic and personable. We talked mostly business, as Repentance had some new material, and we were planning on bringing back the burger for the band. He also talked about his family and friends. He told me who he was with while we were speaking. We loosely planned a party at our Schaumburg location to coincide with the burger and new material. All of that will be there for the band whenever they want it. Right now, we extend time, give space, and send our love and condolences to Shaun’s family, friends, and bandmates.

Rest In Power
