Not sure what happened but 57 years old is too fucking young to die. Rest in Peace, Todd. You will be missed. Thank you for helping to provide a huge chunk of the soundtrack to my life.
August is a brutal month.

Shoot, saddened to hear this - had my Panic period, saw em at Hampton Beach Casino w/Mike H playing seated
Rest In Peace, Todd Nance
Sad news. 57 is way too young.
I first saw Todd & Panic at the '91 Super Jam in Athens and then probably 10 more times in the 1990s. I jumped back on board for another 25 shows since Jimmy Herring joined. Todd was a part of all of those through 2014, including WSP with the ABB in Charlotte in '09 and when they started playing Wanee.
His heavy snare use is a key part of the WSP signature sound. Duane Trucks really honors that in his playing....wouldn't quite sound like Panic on those old tunes without it.
Family said sudden complications from a chronic illness. Rest Easy to the Toddfather of Athens.
Sad, I didn't know he had left the band. So I guess I've seen them with and without him. I liked the shows they did with the ABB.

Everything in Moderation. Including Moderation.
He was a very good drummer. Not sure the band improved with DuaneTrucks who is also good.
Great drummer. Seemed like he was always up for a jam. He played an amazing, loud show with Stained Souls (Col. Bruce & Tinsley] in Atlanta.
