Matt, you were one of the first people I "met" on this forum. You were always available to help me with my recording equipment whenever I had a question or problem. I'm glad I got to know just a little part of who you are. This forum will never be the same without you. There are few people here who I consider a friend. You were definitely one of them and I was hoping to meet u next year when I tour the U.S. Visiting different karaoke spots. I'm so glad I was lucky enough to do a duet with you. I will be sure to sing one for you next time I'm out. R.I.P. My friend.

Like a few others, I haven't been here long, but I learned plenty from him and I'm very grateful for it.
I found him to be very welcoming, knowledgable, helpful and passionate about what he did.
Shocking news. Condolences to his family & friends.

So very, very sad. Godspeed Matt. Your dedication to the business and your willingness to contribute great advice will be missed by all who frequent this board. I'd like to extend my wishes of peace and condolences to Matt's family as well in this sad time.

Just doesn't seem real or possible. Life is precious. RIP Knightshow, you won't be forgotten.

WOW! Unbelievable! Matt was one of the FEW KJ's I would specifically go see and spend time at his shows here in Portland.

He also made an EXCELLENT magazine story interview!

http://www.positivelyentertainment.com/ ... queen.html

This one i got to do in our local Porltland mag.

I also was fortunate enough to be able to do a KARAOKESCENCE MAGAZINE feature spotlight article for the KS mag which as pretty much a full page article

His gig at The Queen Of Hearts bar a few blocks from my house made it easy and convenient to go visit him. Ill make a point of stopping by there and let them know whats happened.

Very depressing news!

I am not a host or a singer.. But been a member here a long time. I am a spectator at
karaoke shows..
Always went to Matts posts to learn stuff I knew i would never use but was just good
info that maybe someday would come into play. I will miss his presence here....

RIP Matt....

I really don't know what to say that hasn't already been covered. Matt always had something positive to say. He was good for an honest opinion and had a ton of experience having already had most of our problems in the past. without a doubt his contributions here will be missed.

I'm very sorry to hear that, too. I got to know Matt as a straight forward shooter and very passionate in what he was doing. And even though I did not always agree with him, I respected his opinion. RIP Matt. :(

Thank you all so much for all of your thoughts and wishes. Harry posted the link to this thread on FB for me and I've just read through it all.

He became very close to many of his online friends and had such hopes and dreams to one day meet you all.

It helps me to see how much he was loved by all and how he will be missed. My thought through all of is this is how much he would be humbled by a thread like this. I don't know how many times I told him what an impact he had in just my life, and he would shrug it off because to him - he didn't do anything special. That's just the way he was.

Again thank you all - have a shot o' the Irish for him and keep singing your hearts out. That's how he'd want it.

~Ruthie

We had our differences, but it's the differences that make life worth living, and forums worth posting in. I hate it when people go. RIP Matt.

I am beyond shock by this news ! My deepest sympathies go out to his wife and family. He was a wonderful man who will be fondly remembered.

Thank you, Harry for posting the link for Ruthie. I knew it would mean a lot to her to see it.
Ruthie, I haven't been on the forum long, but your husband was a wonderful contributor, and even in his last post to me, the day he passed, it contained some great advice to me that will be taken to heart. He also had a great sense of humour that I'm sure you will cherish always. He never missed the subtle humour in my posts and was oftentimes the only one to pick up on it.
He truly will be missed more than you know. I am still in shock. His passing has reminded me of how truly mortal we all are. Here today, gone tomorrow.
Bless you Ruthie, in this difficult time.

OMG.....I just found this. My sincere condolences to Matt's family and friends.

Matt was a good guy. Helped me out alot when I first came here. Always had a level headed response to anything and offered wise advice willingly.

I'm really saddened by this. RIP bud. :(
