Lizzy Borden guitartist killed in car accident

Former Lizzy Borden guitarist Corey Daum (a.k.a. Corey James) was killed in a car crash on Saturday morning (January 24th) in Nashville, Tennessee. He was 39 years old. According to The Tennessean, a Kentucky man has been charged with vehicular homicide after police said he drove into a concrete wall, killing Daum.

Daum died at the scene of the accident on an Interstate 40 on-ramp on George L. Davis Boulevard. According to police, the car was driven by Charles Wolford of Owensboro, Ky., who admitted at the scene that he had been drinking.

The Ford Explorer driven by Wolford crossed three lanes to get to the interstate on-ramp before striking a concrete wall about 12:30 a.m., witnesses told police.

Wolford is also charged with vehicular assault for the injuries of another passenger, Ravin Wells, 27, of Goodlettsville, who is in stable condition at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

Wolford was not seriously injured, police said. None of the passengers were wearing seatbelts.

Daum was a member of Lizzy Borden from 1989 to 1996, although he apparently didn't appear on any of the band's studio albums.

Another former Lizzy Borden guitarist, Alex Nelson, was killed in a head-on collision on May 17th, 2004.

I just noticed that. And Lizzy's current guitarist is in jail. Is the guitar position in Lizzy Borden cursed or somethin'?

This is Metalrob's chance at rock n roll glory since the guitar slot is now vacant, he can beat the curse.

R.I.P.

Sad R.I.P

That's sad. Did they inherit Def Leppard's bad luck?

way too big of shoes to fill there.

RIP thoughts and prayers with your friends and family

On the album “ Love You To Pieces “
The album starts off with “ Council of the Cauldron “
Starts off with a backwards message....just found out - finally -
After all these decades....Lizzy Borden says, “ Hello Suckers “.

Whoa until now I had no idea two members of this band had died, sad.
