RIP Nancy Arlen 1942-2006

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_(band)

Nancy Arlen, who was the drummer for No Wave pioneers Mars, has passed away following heart surgery in September. Very sad news, Sumner Crane (vocals, guitar) died in 2003. Basically, Mars were fantastic and you should rush out and buy, beg, borrow or steal a copy of '78+', which contains all their recorded work. Thoughts go out to her family and friends, and a huge thanks from someone whose very definition of music you guys shook to the core.
