Johnny Brandybuck

Johnny Brandybuck (9 October 1965 – 5 January 2013) was an English musician who was the Guitarist for the rock band Skull on Parade. Nicknamed "The Bull God" and "Lightning", he was the band's only member with formal musical training and also provided backing and occasional lead vocals. 
Brandybuck was in Room 526 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Paradise, Nevada, on 22 December 2012, one day before the scheduled first show of the bands 2012 United States tour. He was 47 years old. Brandybuck had gone to bed that night with Sabrina Mcalley, a local stripper and groupie, who awoke the next morning to find Brandybuck unresponsive. He was taken to the hospital where they were able to revive him, but he was on life support. On January 3, 2013, after much discussion with his family it was decided to take him off life support where he passed away on January 5, 2013. The Clark County medical examiner determined that his death was due to a heart attack induced by an undetermined amount of cocaine. Brandybuck already had severe heart disease and usually smoked 30 cigarettes a day.
His body was cremated, and his ashes were buried privately on the grounds of his mansion, in Woodlake. His huge collection of guitars and basses was auctioned at Sotheby's in London by his son, Christopher, to meet anticipated taxes on his father's estate.
