Rest in peace Gina Brooks. She posted here as MaidenNY and was on SR.com as well. She was a good friend and loyal. God was she loyal. She was NYC faithful and I know some of you know her who are from around here, or Emissions, or whatever. Rock and Roll Gina.

Yipes. Was she sick or was this an accident?

Regardless, condolences to her family and friends.

Really, really sad news. Gina was a great lady and super, super fun to hang out with, not to mention a great supporter of the scene. RIP.

I am truly saddened by this news. Gina was a staple at shows in NYC and will be dearly missed.

Sucks. Gina was cool.

She didn't like to make a big deal about it, but she had cancer.

She really didn't want anyone to know she was sick because she didn't want to be treated differently. I just saw her though and things just happened so quickly it really took me by surprise. Don't ever take your friends for granted, let them know how much they mean to you cause sometimes you won't get to say goodbye.

I'm going to miss her a lot. Today was a tough day.

Such a sweetheart of a woman. About 8 years ago I posted a message looking to buy an extra Black Sabbath/Ozzfest ticket. She responded and we arranged to meet at the venue. We met there, she gave me the ticket, and she refused to take a single dollar from me. She was just genuinely happy to be able to give a 20 year old kid, a complete stranger, the chance to see Black Sabbath. I randomly saw her at shows over the next few years and she always made a point to come up to me and say hello. It's been a few years since I've seen her, but I'll never forget how genuine and kind she was.

RIP

I'm very sorry to hear about this. Cancer does indeed suck.
Take care out there.
