11-16-05 Bohannon Dies at 42

Published on 11/19/2005

On November 16, 2005, local musician (and 'Artistopian') Bohannon died as the result of a one car accident on highway 61 in Lake County. There were no witnesses. Bohannon's vehicle, a gold 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, flipped over a guardrail and dropped more than 350 feet to the rocks below.

According to Lake County Sheriff Sonny Vaselovic, “There were no signs of anyone being forced to lose control of a vehicle.” The car, he said, “apparently turned to the right, when the road wrapped left around the second bay's cliff. The wreckage was found much further from the cliff's face than we usually see.”

“That Cutlass,” Vaselovic pointed out, “was equipped with a Rocket 350 engine, capable of speeds of well over 150 miles per hour.”

With an autopsy pending, there was no official word about whether or not alcohol or drugs were involved, but Bohannon was known as one being particularly fond of a couple of (extra) pints, and for writing music for a website known as Artistopia.

His wife, Urquell said, “Bo had planned one full year on Artistopia – a site he really respected as he was a web developer himself – publishing as many song ideas as he could write and record in one year. He started in February 2005 and made it as far as November with 140 or something song ideas. I think the music he created was on some level brilliant; and another couple of months, who knows?”

Others are looking closer at the songs themselves for a key to what happened. Denny Waxo, writer of the blog Waxo Philosophical, points out “The guy sings in one song:
'Death's after me.
It's around every corner.
I'm a gazelle.
It's a puma.' "

Waxo guesses: “I'm thinking that Bohannon's got a bit of a death wish.”

Point being, please listen to his music – and pass it on. He's no longer here to be his own champion. He laid down his life in music as a sort of musical weblog for the better part of a year. He had a baby, grew a business, failed, fucked up, succeeded, and all the rest. And he had the cajones to report it all – artistically through his song ideas - mostly, it seems, drunk. You don't have to like it, but you really got to respect it.
