John Entwistle, bass player for The Who, has passed away at the age of 57. He was found dead in his Las Vegas hotel.
Entwistle was in Vegas for the launch of The Who’s U.S. tour, which was to begin Saturday night. He had arrived early for an exhibition of his artwork, one of his lifelong passions.
He was on medication for a heart condition, the AP reports, and it is thought that he might have died from a heart attack.
