The details surrounding his death were scarce, but TMZ reported the musician slipped in the shower and fell while housesitting in Brussels, Belgium. At the time of his death, his\u00a0social media profile<\/a>\u00a0said he was living in Belgium.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

“He was THE sweetest guy and what a handsome chap,” Train said\u00a0on social media<\/a>. Let’s make a band that’s the only reasonable thing to do. His unique bass playing a beautiful guitar work helped get folks to notice us in SF and beyond. I’ll always have a warm place for him in my heart. I always tried to pull him closer but he had a vision of his own. You’re a legend, Charlie. Go charm the pants off those angels.”<\/p>\n
