Hell, if we're using Wikipedia as a source for this kind of thing, I could have died this month as well.

Sh*t, I heard nothing about this.
When did this happen?

For Mitch Hedberg who died in 2005 but was born today (February 24) in 1968.

Here's Mitch as a young, fresh-faced comedian in 1995

And here he is strung out on heroin and cocaine performing on The Late Show guest-hosted by Elvis Costello in 2003

Peace to Mitch who was a master craftsman of comedy.

Mitch was truly great. Great loss as well. Rip.

Just found out that Alvin Lee passed away due to complications from surgery.

A great guitarist with a great rock band, his performance with Ten Years After at Woodstock is a classic and one of the highlights of that festival.

Alvin Lee (December 19, 1944 - March 6, 2013)
