From The Globe and Mail:  Drummer of You Say Party!  We Say Die! apparently suffered brain aneurysm.

... the 31-year-old musician’s sudden death, from an apparent brain aneurysm which hit during the opening set at the Rickshaw Theatre, was “just devastating” to his family, friends and work colleagues.

When he wasn’t  with his band, which was just ending a successful North American tour and was scheduled to head for Europe next week, Clifford worked in emergency shelters for the homeless.

“He was right on the front line,” said Townsend. “He was faced with difficult situations dealing with hospitals, ambulances and police, all while trying find people housing.”
I got to see YSD! WSD! perform as part of the Olympic shows that were going on around the Lower Mainland.  This is a tragic loss to both the band and the Downtown East Side.

loss, sad, death, music
