SIB HASHIAN OF BOSTON DIES UNDATED (AP) Musicians are mourning the loss
of former Boston drummer Sib Hashian. Tom Hamilton of Aerosmith
remembers Hashian as a "really good guy and fine drummer as well. Lou
Gramm says his thoughts and prayers go to Hashian's family. Michael
Sweet, singer for Stryper and sometimes singer for Boston, says it was
an honor to be a member of the band Hashian helped create. Hashian died
Wednesday while on the Legends of Rock cruise in the Caribbean at the
age of 67. A cause of death has not been determined. His wife says
funeral arrangements will be made at a later date. Hashian played on
the first two Boston albums and left the band as they were working on
the third one. He also was famous for his hair, sporting one of the
biggest afros in rock. Sound: 197-w-24-(Margie Szaroleta
