Rich Hall, head of one-person booking company 1000 Knives and overall legend in the New York metal world, sadly died this January.
At the time, his wife Carrie Whitney-Hall wrote: “It breaks my heart to write this, but the man I chose 14 years ago has passed. I knew the second we met, that I was going to marry him. I knew we’d make a cute kid too. This is our last family photo from Monster trucks on Sunday. We went out for Mexican food and C’s birthday dinner. His last meal was a giant burrito. We kissed good night and he thanked me for taking care of him. I’m thankful our last moments were happy and content.
“You guys this is so hard, he loved and is loved by so many people. I want to see all of you and hug all of you. Just let me figure out the hard stuff and we’ll plan celebrations on both coasts! I always say this, but tell each other you love them and give big Rich Hall hugs to everyone, you never know how much time you have together!”
