  Dead (musician) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dead was also part of the "inner circle" (a cult-like group that most of the early Norwegian Black Metal musicians were involved in), a selective group with members such as Øystein 'Euronymous' Aarseth, Varg Vikernes (Burzum) and Faust (Emperor).
Aarseth was also said to have eaten parts of Dead's brain, and to have made necklaces out of fragments of his skull, although Aarseth himself dismissed the former of these claims in an interview (1).
Dead also had an appearance in the Candlemass video for the song "Bewitched." He is part of the group who "doom dances" to Messiah Marcolin's grave.

 Techdirt: Non-Existent Publicist Sends Out Fake Email To Promote Dead Musician
In the email, the publicist talks about how stupid the record company was, pointing to the fact that they actually held a seance to contact a recently dead musician to ask him to try to promote his new album from beyond the grave.
They gave that non-existent publicist a voicemail and email account, and the musician was apparently satisfied, believing he had a publicist dealing with his requests.
Then, a few weeks before the album was due out, the musician really did die (heart attack) and the record label brought back the fake publicist to "quit" in disgust, in the hopes that the discussion over the ridiculousness of the (also non-existent) seance would get the (now non-existent) band more publicity.

It was a night for which all assembled, musicians and audience alike were most grateful.
As seems to be the case whenever two or more members of the Grateful Dead alumni association play together, there was a palpable sense of magic in the air, and a depth of communication that can only exist between musicians with such a wealth of shared experience.
Among the highlights were: Grateful Dead tunes from local faves The Webs; a Jerry Garcia lookalike contest; tie-dyed jerseys worn by the home team; and the ceremonial first pitch thrown by Big Steve Parish (who looks just like Roger Clemens, if you kinda squint a little).
