[DosenbrotWTF]

TIM IS NOT DEAD -.-! Idiots. Why do you believe every shit ? The rumors says he died because of a over dose drugs? Are you so stupid? If you would be a good and true fan you would know that he is straightedge. NO DRUGS,NO ALC,NO MEAT. Sorry but these kind of rumors are so bad. Sorry for my bad englisch, but say this your friends.
